Avid,
I did call the police. I know legally that's what we're supposed to do. But in fact it is a near waste of time and energy. My stuff is still gone. And the little shithead that did it, did it before, and is still doing it, and will keep on doing it until one of us neighbors gets as lucky as Mr. Sheen and pops him for the final count. And then whichever one of us it is will recite from memory what Dogfish posted. Of course it's not the preferred outcome. No one wishes the shithead ill will. We just want him to stop breaking into places and stealing our stuff. But he won't. And eventually his luck is gonna' run out. Society is obligated to take measures to protect itself, or we're no longer a society. It's not about the value of 27 pound sub-woofers; it's about the social value of right and wrong; you steal and you bear adverse consequences.

Oh THANK you salmo for enlightening me. I think I'm gonna go kill me a f'in petty thief,and anyone else who breaks the law. You guys are [censored] barbaric. Frankly I call BS. You ain't gonna shoot anyone.
If the consequences aren't severe enough for you start y'all better start writin!! It'll never fly though. Too many decent folks adhere to the rule of Thou Shalt Not Kill. EVER.
