Caught a would be thief in action

[svk]

I keep a camera on both my home and cabin driveways. It’s amazing how many “turnarounds” I get each month even though I’m pretty rural.

I’m considering doing a WiFi camera at home and a second game camera overlooking the door at the cabin.

 

[stihl sawing]

I got all my wood stored behind a fence with a ferocious dog.

 

[sb47]

if he come back be ware he might com back when your not home
thats what some one did to me
and steeled a truck load of wood

I have a 6 camera security camera system that covers my whole place. If anyone steps foot I will know it. No, a camera system will not stop a thief, but it may give me clues to who they are, what there driving, what they look like, time of day.
My property is very well marked with signs warning would be thief's it would be better to pick another place to steel from. Besides I'm here most of the time and my brother lives next door so someone is almost always here.

is ent it legal

 

[gunny100]

leagal or illegal

 

[svk]

As a civilian to shoot non lethal ammo at another civilian who isn’t threatening your life? Hell yeah that’s illegal.

 

[gunny100]

dumb ****en ass hole that steels should have their pants pulled down and have their ass paddled 50 times every day
than maby thay would be good
if thay dont agree press charges

What they deserve and what a fellow citizen is allowed to do about it are two different things.

I’m not going to risk jail time over someone stealing wood.

i think jail is not free any more

Even a legal shoot is a costly one. By the time you hire a lawyer and go through the legal system it's gonna cost you a minimum of 10K and that's for a legal shot, like defending your life in you own home.

Over here, if you caught a bloke pinching your stuff and gave him a good woopin', he'd generally think that's fair enough and not sue you. Since we're not allowed to have guns, you can't shoot him in the balls even if you wanted to.

For a short time the jail I worked in was charging $10 for the pleasure of being booked in. I don't think that lasted a year.

Also depends on your local LEO and often the race of the perp. That young man in Texas who killed 4 robbers in his home wasn’t charged. If that happened in a less gun friendly state or BLM gets ahold of it, look out.

Unfortunately over here, hurting a man’s self esteem is no longer a viable solution. If you best someone in a honest fist fight he’ll probably come back and shoot you.

I'm sure he still had to get a lawyer even though he wasn't charged.

 

[greenskeeper]

clearly he was just an "undocumented customer"

In fact he’s probably entitled to his fair share since sb47 has too much

 

[Little Al]

If you aren’t stealing from people there’s no need to be offended regardless.
