He should have taught people to use some common sense after informing them of the law. Many had no clue about the world and their version is you can pull a wyatt earp at night on pretty much anybody.

Good change from yours to mine. Mine taught us not to get involved, but to observe, and reminded us if we had to shoot, on average the legal cost would be $50,000.

Re: Man shoots vandal slashing tires at night, arrested

What difference does the value of the tires make? Although I recognize your point that tires are expensive and commercial tires (or RV tires) are REALLY expensive, is there a monetary level where shooting is/isn't justified?

Re: Man shoots vandal slashing tires at night, arrested

Dr Joker,
After the tires were slashed, he chased the guy down, and then shot him. Lets assume that he could identify him positively as the person that slashed the tires.
The danger to property is over. Where is the justification for shooting? Just curious.

So it's ok to slash tires now but not ok to defend against the destruction of your property?
It's more justify-able in my mind prior to the property being destroyed or while the property was being destroyed.

Inversely is it ok to kill a man for slashing your tires? I hope they're good tires...
Apparently it's not OK to kill him after he's run away and and you chase him down. No, that wouldn't be a good time to do it.
