Castle doctrine for the win.
Attempt to steal my vehicle = instant punishment. At home, the grocery store, a traffic light it doesn't matter. Vehicle thefts are quite rare here. |

Maybe a year or two ago there was an armed home invasion near where I live and a resident shot and killed one of the armed intruders and he was charged with murder. Charges eventually dropped, but still. Found the story: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toron...rder-1.6923046 |

Quite common here and getting worse all the time.
Two people on the management team of my company had their vehicles damaged during attempted thefts recently. One of them lives near me. It's mostly Big Trucks and SUVs so I am less worried about it. |

Since most all vehicles these daze are run with fuel injection of some sort, and it requires a fuel pump to supply the system, the fuel pump is of course electrical, and so being......
just hide a cut off switch into the + lead of the fuel pump (s)....and bury that kill switch somewhere hidden .....rather difficult to find, but decently convenient for the driver to control/adtivate the pump when starting.... now I may use a pushbutton, with a self latching relay wired in.....bury it in the door jamb, for instance, where you can make it latch into the run position, IE run power to the fuel pump so that it can run when the computer says so, when the driver starts the car...... |

Here in NM, if someone was stealing my car, this is no reason to shoot them unless they produced some sort of a weapon, gun, knife, bat or came after me over it.
Maybe 5-6 years ago, A guy saw a man trying to steal his car and chased him down the road a ways on foot and shot him. The owner was charged for the shooting. I don't recall the details of the outcome but he did some "time served" thing over it. I am seeing a trend here that many criminals getting shot were holding BB guns. Last week, a woman was chased down by a police dog, she came out of a backyard shed holding her cell phone out like a gun and that was the end of her. |

If you shoot and kill them in your driveway, just drag the body into your house, and then call 5-0.
May help to shot them again once inside the home so the csi folks can document the splatter pattern. |

Maybe no reason to shoot them if unarmed... However they may prefer that to the baseball bat for the remainder of their lives.
I miss the old days... Hot wire the fuel oil tank lid, leave a dog in the car, wait in bushes for somebody to get into your car. Dark neighborhoods work both ways ya know. I suppose in Canada it's illegal to shoot animals killing your livestock and chickens then? |
