What the headline fails to point out is that that after he chased the kid he started reaching around for what the man perceived as weapon.

Don’t chase him. There’s your answer. No property is worth going to jail or losing your life for.

Is someone else’s property worth going to jail or losing your life for?

No, and neither is mine.

The teenager was more than willing to take that risk. You’re suggesting nothing I own is worth protecting with force but you don’t have the same sentiments for the individuals who may attempt to steal it. Why?

Material things can be replaced. Life cannot. And I didn’t say using force isn’t justified. I said losing life.

Shouldn’t have chased him. You let the person go. It’s only a car, it can be replaced.

The innocent victim was just stealing a car. He probably had a troubled home life and just needs hugs.

The nerve of the monster that decided to stop the young man from trying to feed his family! Put him in jail and throw away the key
