    Cops are getting pretty tough on car thieves in B.C.

    just don't shoot at a vehicle thief here in Alberta, you will wind up being charged.

    Stealing a car doesn�t get you shot. Trying to drive though the cop�s car will.

    When other police cars hemmed the truck in the man continued to spin his tires and the police fired a single shot, which hit him.

    You can shoot at them. You just can�t chase after them, drive them into the ditch and try to kill them after the fact.

    In the good old days, all we used was some rope.

    I wonder what's more effective,the bait cars they brought back and are going to use more or the cops just pulling iron and banging off a few caps if they even suspect your a car thief. :lol:

    Good thing he didnt pull out an exacto knife or a stapler,they would have pasted him to the back of the seat with lead. :lol:

    Your either watching or reading too many dusters.
    Vigilante justice in the old west wasnt as common as the novel writers would try and make you believe.

    Or you need your sarcasm detector calibrated.

    But if people had been ripping off my stuff for as long as that old guy had been putting up with it, I probably would wig out too.

    As the opinion column says:

    Perhaps only in Alberta do people still understand that this is nonsense -- that the police's privilege of investigating and punishing crime is derived from our primary right of self-defence, which we delegate but do not abandon, and that property is an extension of ourselves, and may be defended in the same way and for the same reasons we are allowed to defend our persons.

    . . .

    Brian Knight willingly invited the "trouble" he is now getting from the Mounties by calling them in on his citizen's arrest. This is not vigilantism, though some semi-literate reporters have reserved desk space in hell by using that term. A vigilante would have fed a thief to the pigs, or dressed him in chains and cinder blocks and taken him for a swim in Buffalo Lake. No cops, no lawyers, no problem.
