What would you do to protect your stuff?

I don’t think they make the scandium frame one anymore. The recoil acceleration was so great that it had the tendency to extract the bullets out of the chambered rounds and jam up the cylinder.

Oh, okay … I heard wrong. But crimp your bullets good and tight.

I believe in something I call financial violence. That’s for people like Madoff and SBF. They destroy people’s lives without a thought of remorse. Almost sociopathic. I wonder if anybody committed suicide after losing everything to these dirt bags? IMO,They deserve the death penalty, as does anyone who engaged in identity theft. Yes, can can do incredible damage.

You remind me of feminists who tell me that catcalling is sexual assault.

Catcalling doesn’t harm anything but feelings.

And white collar crimes don’t cut, bruise, or otherwise touch your body.

And yet I’ll bet you support all the rioting, burning and looting done by people who were not cut, bruised or otherwise touched by the murder of someone else don’t you?

I didn’t. Any other questions to avoid the force of my critique of your financial feminism?

I’m smiling, but I knoe I shouldn’t be.

There is hope for you yet.

There really isn’t, I’m just more apathetic now. Shooting and killing a fleeing thief, barring certain circumstances, should carry a murder charge.

I took the op to mean they were walking out the door. That was the scenario I was envisioning.

Obviously if they are not fleeing it’s a different scenario.

[tnt]

Yeah, I agree. If we are talking about something significant like your retirement that is different. I too took stuff to mean things in the house. Like the tv some jewlery. And what not.

One reason physical assets like gold bars are a bit risky. You have to maintain them.

[bigtwnvin]

From the article
“Police say the homeowner fully complied with police and answered all questions before officers determined he had legally defended his home.”

Again, know your local and state laws associated with “stand your ground”. The homeowner has a valid CCWP and most classes cover the law and present situations where it is lawful to use your firearm.
The homeowner in this case is protected from any criminal charges. But I am willing to bet an attempt will be made by the perpetrators to hold him civilly liable for injury. He might want to pick up some extra range time. Dead men tell no tales.

Stuff? Let him go. Stuff is stuff. Not worth taking a life or seriously harming someone over.

Sometimes “stuff” as you call it is not just “stuff”. It could be something given to you by a loved one that has been handed down thru the generations, etc. Not saying I would put a bullet in them, not saying I wouldn’t. All I am saying is sometimes “stuff” cannot be replaced.

Yep. It depends what you mean by “stuff”. If we are talking about an old tv that is covered under insurance I’m not going to shoot. If he is somehow making off with gold bars that I have worked my whole life for and are necessary for my retirement years, he is out of luck.
The word “stuff” implies it isnt that much.
I’m not going to judge where another person draws a line with a thief.
I don’t want thieves to know ahead of time where the line will be drawn.

Florida police chief issues warning to criminals after homeowner shoots burglars: 'Most people are armed' | Fox News

I used the word stuff deliberately. It’s just that, you don’t know what may be going out that window…I don’t think most people would shoot for something if minimal value, or that’s replaceable. It’s the unknown you have to react to…

Baloney. If you were more apathetic, you wouldn’t care if fleeing thieves were shot or not, let alone that the home-owner be charged with murder.

Ah … accept ruin and deprivation because the Left tolerates their idiots running amuck.

Wrong rationale and not a left-wing belief per se, but yeah. When my beliefs clash with others’ beliefs, I have no problem telling people my “opponents” on an issue that I intend to force my resolution on them. Unlike limp-wristed progressives and conservatives who retreat into the illusory shelter of “Leave me alone!”.
