Property Rights are in part the Foundation of Western Civilization.
Where we find the right to protect our property, we find freedom and liberty.
Otherwise we find Tyranny.
After reading this thread I took a survey of five people I talk to several times a week.
1. Joe- yard hand,possibly the dumbest person I know.
2. Brad- truck driver,average every day dude.
3. Jay- mechanic, average every day dude.
4. Janie- corporate upper management
5. Dr. Shankle- owner operator of a private practice and cattle ranch. Super Genius.
I asked them this question " if someone steals my mower, I drive around and find it in their driveway, I then take back my mower...what can I be charged with ?" Without leading they all answered the same way and I quote "Nothing". Jay added, if the thief claimed ownership it was then a civil matter and police would leave it at that.
I realize it's nearly impossible to change minds but maybe this will help.
