I often hear the remark that " Stealing isnt worth taking a person's life."
Well the person doing the stealing should remember that before he comes to your house and takes what you have worked a lifetime for. Ransacks your home , mentally rapes you, and makes you feel unsecure in your own home.
Yes: Its bad to die for a piece of copper pipe you would have sold for a pittance of its worth. But this rotten thieving SOB got what he had coming to him. He didnt care about the person he was stealing from, why should that person care about him?
He would have sold that pipe for ten bucks and it would have cost the person he stole from close to a thousand bucks to replace it. Any body that stupid deserves what he got.
