Should you be able to shoot someone for stealing a pot plant? You can in Texas...... The homeowner, in his 60s, grabbed his handgun around 8 a.m. and took several shots a man he claims was stealing a potted plant and other items from his yard at 708 Shadwell, said Sgt. Chris Benavides, a spokesman for the San Antonio Police Department. . . . The suspect, in his 40s, was taken to an area hospital. Police said he will be charged with theft and possibly burglary. Benavides said the homeowner is being questioned but will not likely be charged. "At this point he is protected because he was trying to prevent theft on his property," Benavides said.
What about if they were not stealing anything say they were just peeing on your front lawn at 3 am? You would have to be able to shoot them hey? After all they are trespassing and it is your lawn? You need to protect your family and your property. Happened to a fella in the US and another fella in India but I can not copy and paste the link. That has to be acceptable. What about if someone is on your front footpqth yelling obsenities and they threaten to kick your letterbox, can you shoot them? I am trying to understand what is acceptable to the experts at silverstackers. If you find someone asleep in your back yard can we shoot them? They are trespassing....... do you needvto wakevthem up or is it acceptable to shoot them while they are asleep?
If you are peeing on someones lawn and they ask you to stop is it acceptable to shoot them? I thinkmI am goingbto get a no to that one. http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/...to-Stop-Urinating-on-Lawn-Cops-250199801.html
dude i think you need to take a step back and chill - i'm sure most people would have common sense , i don't think they would walk around the property with full autos shooting everyone walking passed
Lol Wandering man with Alzhiemers mistaken for burgler shot and killed by homeowner, he was 72 google it I can't copy and paste the link. He would not leave the homeowners yard and would not repond ro commands from the homeowner. 2013 Chatanooga, can't post the link. He was 72 in freezing weather who rang the door bell before going in the back yard, police belived he was cold and disorientated and was most likely trying to find shelter. Common snse says you do not just shoot old men in there 70s who have done nothing, common snense says you do not shoot people for urinating on your lawn, common sense says you do not leave a gun where a 2 year old can get it, common sense says a toddler should not be allowed to play with a loaded gun. Common sense says you do not shoot people for stealing fruit off a tree in your yard, common sense says to always keep firearms unloaded and locked away for children, common sense says you do not shoot people for peeing on your car ( I have not posted that link yet) common sense says........ you want me to keep going? Common sense is not that common which is the problem, common sense does not come into it. There are millions of retards who would shoot people because their dog shat on their lawn and then they would say they were protecting their property and they would 100 % believe they were doing the right thing. I have personally seen a case where a bloke shot his cousin twice with an AK47, once in the upper chest and once in the abdomen because his cousin had been having sex with his monkey. Edit. Personally I have no issue with the bloke who shot his cousin for shagging his monkey just on principle, but that is just a personal belief. Others find it acceptable to shoot people for stealing a microve for example. It does not mean that either of us is right though.
http://m.gazette.com/stepdad-who-shot-teen-girl-is-decorated-fort-carson-officer/article/1511573 Stepdad shoots 14 year old daughter who he thought was a burgler and this is a ex serviceman trained extensively and a bronze star recipient for bravery and he still managed to stuff up royally.
You have to use a bit of common sense, some times they might deserve shooting other times a good flogging with a lump of wood will suffice or a foot up the arse, maybe the bb/slug gun for miner shit. A bucket of water should stop the monkey fcking and people pissing on your lawn, kids and anyone else welcome to all the fruit they want from the footpath
18 year old jumped out of a closet as a joke and his father shot him thinking he was an intruder. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/track-star-shot-killed-prank-wrong-father-article-1.1449117 Question, why are none of these cases from Australia? They are all or nearly all US based where people can "defend themselves" The whole defending themselves idea does not seem to work to well.
12 year old mistaken for intruder by his 16 year old brother who was scared so he shot him. Lucky there was a gun in the house for self defence. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/boy-shoots-brother-12-thinking-intruder-article-1.1297242
Most house holds had at least one gun when I grew up, apart from the mad duck shooting wogs, trespassers and a few suicides nobody got shot
Drunk 16 year old climbed through what he thought was he back window but it turns out he was so drunk it turns out it was the wrong house and he was shot by the homeowner. http://wjla.com/news/local/sterling-homeowner-shoots-intruder-police-say-86338 He was not a criminal he was a drunk kid

When i was growing up in Mackay QLD and in about year 12 I remember one of the seniors shot one of his mates in the head in a case of mistaken identity slash trying to protect himself slash general stuff up. I did not know them and it was a different school but I remember the funeral being a big thing and the two kids were the sons of cane farmers so a few of my mates knew them. It was HUGE at the time. I have no idea what happened to the fella that did the shooting, I think it was treated as a terrible accident. I remember my best mate telling me apparently it took most of the top part of the kids head off and was a real mess.it really shook up the whole community.
Should ban dickheads that don't care enough to have a look before reversing There would be nothing more tragic than running your own offspring over and killing them, I never reversed anywhere anytime with out knowing where my young bloke was
