I dare say over here if you found someone in your shop, you gave them a wack, I thought you would end up on the wrong side of the law.. :bang:

Well yes, it is like that in a lot of countries. You see there is seen to be a difference between crimes against property and crimes against person and it is considered that crimes against property are not as serious as crimes against person so assaulting someone's person in order to protect your property is not on. Pretty simple really.

Well it should be on......shoot em...dig hole...and forget all about it.....
Nothin but scum...
Over here, you find them, ring police, wait several hours if not days depending how busy they are, (in my case it was over a week) for them to give you a crime No' for your insurance company so you can make a claim.
The actual crime is of no interest to them....... but if you thump the intruder with something soft like a baseball bat, or let your dog play with him you could well end up being locked up for partaking in a little crime prevention....
That is why we have so much crime over here.....

It is crazy that you can not be physical with someone to get them off your property if they are thieving from you? - and I dare say that these are the people that would give you a good wollop first!
So you catch someone in your shop - have you just meant to ask them nicely to please leave, ohhh and if they wouldn`t mind, it would be awfully nice if they could leave the equipment in their pockets back when they got it from!! :bang: :doh: :poke:

I agree - they going out a night knowing that if someone catches them they aren`t going to necessarily retaliate! I think crime would drastically be reduced if they know they could be shot on site on someone elses property!! I never have to go on anyone elses property so it doesn`t worry me... :ddb:

I've heard that.
We could get into a real political disscusion here. Like I said it was more of something to chukle at than acutally do. I think I'd have the same problem hear as things are heating up on gun control. So time to get serious and drop this subject for me.
