And who are you to decide who 'needs' shooting and who doesn't?
C'mon.. really... for stealing something from your yard. Sure it isn't right for someone to do that... but shooting them for it?
The issue ultimately for me is that there are no reprocussions for people anymore, there is supposed jail time or whatever. And if its get stolen then I get to call and deal with the other thieves in my life (insurance people).
Basically because I am a somewhat moral person, that has convictions, and I obey most laws, I end up paying to keep insurance people in business, then douches and thieves and the dregs of society come and do this, I pay for court stuffs cause they sure dont pay. IF they get convicted, I pay to keep them in jail for some short time. I pay for whatever insurance doesnt pay for.
Basically in the end all I do is pay because I am not out doing what they are doing. And sadly, I would be much better at it than these idiots. Thieves attempted to take my Mustang 3 years go, did almost 6,000 worth of damage to it. Several hundred dollars of damage to the fences. And go away. Nothing ever came of it, and they were most likely meth heads (common thieves in my rural area). So they are doing society zero good. What happened, I paid my 500 buck deductable (retarded, nothing here was my fault). Lost 4 hours waiting for a cop to show up so I could just move the car and mess with it at all. Then I got to watch my insurance get increased for 3 years until I switched insurances.
So in the end, the result is always the same, I pay. So I guess after hundred leading into thousands of dollars over my lifetime of people stealing and taking from me when I have "insurance" to make it all better, which leads to me paying more, because I am arrogant enough to believe that I should get something from my insurance when the terms I have it FOR are breached. Then they basically screw me over because I actually asked them to pay me SOMETHING for all the crap I pay them.
So yea, sometimes when the sanctity of my home, items and life are continually violated, I consider shooting people and burying them with a backhoe. Perhaps they should stop, and consider getting a FREAKING JOB and just paying for :cus:
The sad part is that I know most of the people that do this :cus: and have reported them to the police who are the trained and awesome professionals to handle it. Yet, nothing ever happens and when I ask the police about the statistical chances of recovery or justice they basically laugh and inform me that it will show up in a pawn shop or on craigslist or in the paper and that the police dont have time to track it down, the report is being made to give to my insurance.
In the end, we all have different opinions on this matter, and I respect that some people are willing to just give everything away to keep yourself, your loved ones, and the thieves healthy happy and in business. I believe that doing so only leads those that are stealing further down the path to worse ends. Rarely are they stealing just to have your items or just to get something specific. They are usually stealing to then get drugs, or some other habit that is equally disturbing or worse. The first time they do it, they worry about getting caught, the second time they do it, they feel better and once the third time begins, it is then what they are doing for a living. At that point they are professionally breaking the law and violating the rights of others. Much like other habits and situations it will escalate without your intervention. Regardless of what you think that is the very essence and nature of the human condition. What I am confused about is that if they are willing to take from a person, or if they had a weapon and took from that person at threat of life, then threatening there life is no longer an acceptable option. In my mentality, treat others the way you wanna be treated, I dont threaten other people over items and consider killing them. If they threaten me with death, they obviously want me to do the same, because they are most likely golden rule people as well.
I am usually reminded of the situation with young Peter Parker in the original origin of Spiderman, where he lets a thief go free because it isnt his responsibility to help bring justice to the world, as such he promotes lawlessness and allows for this thief to then kill his uncle.
Its odd how things escalate sometimes.
rant over! *cheer*
