I see both sides of this and really don't know what I'd do if I saw the situation unveiling in front of me. TBH I can't see myself going back inside and calling the police in the midst of the matter. But from where we are sitting now, yes leaving it be and calling the police is the sensible thing to do. I had my first e93 stolen. Didn't know a thing...just woke up to an open front door, key missing and car gone! Once bitten twice shy as they say but truthfully if someone came into my house with my family there I think it would be a natural instinct (for me) to defend via attacking!

one guy yesterday as he was parking his car, reversed into my car slightly, so my alarm & pager went off. Instinctively without thinking I ran out of the flat to see whats goin on. I stopped on my doorstep and saw him in his car with the window down, which ment I kept my bat in my house.
From this experience I know what I will do if I see a different story going on. I will act instinctively and give justice to the scum! These people deserve it! |

I heard a story (a long time ago) about a hells angel in the USA who had a spark plug fitted to the petrol tank. When he parked it he put the ignition lead on the spark plug. Someone tried to steal his bike and it blew up and killed him. The hells angel got put away for manslaughter. Poetic justice if you ask me. I’ve had 5 motorbikes stolen and two cars, none of which ever resulted in a conviction or recovery of the vehicles.
