I'm of the belief that if you are stupid enough to think people are not going to "protest" your thievery of their property, and they plead with you (at the point of a gun) to stop what you are doing...

And your best reponse is to drop that property and advance on that gun toating citizen you were just stealing something from...

All bets are off, you just made your last mistake...

All of these petty thieves are stealing to support other criminal and personally destructive behavior anyway...

So yes, I believe the direct challenging of these types of criminals is proper, but you do it from a position of strength...

It'll be up to them to comply at that point...Which would be a very good decision to make...

If put into the same situation, and the thief stopped, complied with my instructions, didn't make a threatening advance or attempt an assault on me, I can guarantee that person would be better off and in much better health...

Unfortunately thats a pipe dream...

I believe its the emails, letters and phonecalls we are making to the editors and more importantly to the advertisers of these media outlets about the shoddy reporting they are doing to these incidents that is starting to make an impact...

We'll probably still get the occasional booger-boo story that fraps all of us from time to time...But I agree with you the fairness and accuracy of the stories are starting to be a bit more balanced...
