I get the heightened sense of violation...I have had my car and my apartment broke into. The thief has certainly have earned the right to be prosecuted...but to kill somebody for stealing a TV,? an iPhone?.

Alarms are a great way to go. Most burglars run when the dog barks or the alarm goes off. Unless you have drugs, jewelry, guns or a WHOLE lot of money in the house (see drugs above) most thieves are satisfied stealing your AMAZON packages.

I despise/hate thieves--but the punishment for Petit Theft is NOT the death penalty.
If you enter my house, I guess you expect that I'm supposed to know your intentions? Rob, harm or murder me? Do you ask, are you just here to steal my TV, if so go ahead...No sorry it doesn't work that way. I'm gonna just lay there while you invade my private home and hope for the best.. Wow I have heard it all...
