The difference between us is that you would happily kill someone for stealing a car, and I think my car isn't worth someones life. That's the difference between you and I dick1985, I'll let AT decide who is the better person.
Instead of charging into 3 men with knives, I would pull out my 12ga and go to town.
That's the difference between you and I neckbeard. I'll let AT decide who is wiser.

I see what you did there, very clever.
Obviously 2/3 of AT thinks I'm the better person for defending my property. 2/3 of AT thinks you are a big fat pussy
Generally they don't shoot unless they absolutely have to. If I grabbed a handful of chips at a Vegas casino and ran, they wouldn't open fire on me. Actual human beings are generally against the taking of the life of another. People who are able to devalue human life, aren't themselves human in my opinion. They're monsters.
Well I'd disagree with you there, this thread's poll isn't called "if you wouldn't kill someone over a car are you a big fat pussy" now is it?
Why don't you just let the cops do their job. It's just property.
Would you kindly create that poll so we can see where this goes?
this world is fucked up enough already with criminals striking with no fear because the chances of getting caught are low enough, it's worth taking the risk. and even if you do get caught, you're in jail for a couple of years and out again.
the consequences aren't enough of a deterrent to stop criminal activity.
if killing a few of them sends a message to the rest, which means a better quality of life for the majority, then I'm for it.
fuck them.
Because odds are you aren't going to get your property back? And you may have injured\killed in the process?
you shoudl also think about the mental side effects of ending another man's life.
its easy to consider a theif as worthless scum on the surface but after you kill him, for years you may start to think about what kind of man he was. his life leading up to that moment. did he have a family a wife, kids? what might have he accomplished later in life? why he was doing it? did he have a good reason to steal a car. maybe he needed to get to an injured person and lost his head, didnt think to ask for help, or call? this might haunt a person and injure you more than a broken nose from an unarmed car jacking.
I'm beginning to think we'll hear sometime in early November about a 26 year old man named Nick who gunned down 2 12 year old trick or treaters because they egged his house and he claimed they were armed with a pitch fork and a scythe. Because to him human life is obviously worth less than property.
Oh yeah, you totally have my number! Good one!
Every single thing you've said in this thread so far shows a complete disregard for human life. You've shown the mentality of a man with a threadbare hold on reality who would kill indiscriminantly if you even temporarilty felt that a dime worth of your material possessions was threatened. All I'm doing is putting your own words more succinctly and looking at it from the perspective of a human being who cares about human life.
I'd fight, possibly also with knives, would I kill them? no.

People play alter-egos on the internet it seems.
Aside from being involved in 2 shootings as a civilian, I'm in the Army. I promise I'm not kept up at night by the idea of dead crooks or terrorists\hajis.
The fact that you've been involved in two shootings scares me.
The fact that you've been involved in two shootings scares me. I live in a major city. Used to work downtown in that city. Have friends and family that live in major cities and very bad cities. I know a good number of people. I literally do not know a single person who has ever been involved in a civilian shooting (had to clarify civilian as I have family that's been in the Marines). And you've been involved in two? Things like that make me question if you're the type of person who's the problem here. Are you the type of nut who just starts shooting at the slightest provocation? A vast majority of people will never be involved in one and you've been involved in two? That's not something to be proud of you know.
