You know what would be really nice? If folks would keep their hands off of property that doesn't belong to them. I'd imagine that it might cut down on someone's chances of getting shot while fleeing with stolen property, if they didn't steal said property to begin with. I despise thieves with a passion. They take more than just the tangible property in hand. They are actually stealing time from others because the labor involved to legally acquire said property equates to part of a person's life that will NEVER be recovered, ever. Once that time is gone, it is gone. Someone recently damaged my garage doors trying to take things from inside. I now have to use some of the proceeds of my labor to repair my garage doors, or acquire new garage doors, instead of directing that money elsewhere. I only have so many hours of my life left to earn that money, though of course I cannot know how many hours that may be. Now, flame away at me, my mind won't be changed on the subject. Again, I despise thieves.

EDITED TO ADD:

Note, I did not say I was going to do something such as was done in that story, simply saying I have no pity for thieves.
