Too Harsh OR Common Sense Solution?

A few thousand years of common sense.

Looting takes many forms, shooting someone carrying food and someone carrying a TV are different things. The hard truth is criminals do not care who the hurt and should be put down hard in situations like this.

After disaster residential house Looters are the lowest of the low. Swift justice should be served upon them.

Taking the law in their own hands?

As always when the law fails or is incapable to do its job. Laws don’t make all men equal, Colonel Colt does.

It was a 'bait' question. If the USA is by the people, for the people, you are the law.
Of course, if the state allowed you to retaliate against those who steal from you, they would be in grave danger.

I interpreted your comment as Bluessol did but since I am familiar with your conservative political outlook, I knew it was satirical in nature. Your comments used to be very targeted and now you have changed your style, bear. I think you have become exasperated (as we all have) at the absolute mental illness & even pure insanity from the left. I still "get you" but others may miss the satirical/sarcastic change. Fair assessment or not?

Very accurate assessment, yes.

I absolutely love the honesty of conservative men and you are one of them, bear. More impressed than ever with you and your conservative values.

Thanks
I'm trying to work on being less blunt and pose simple questions. I've heard some people say some pretty far fetched things, but by keeping an open mind, it's really changed the view from my Overton window. Ron Paul and Lew Rockwell definitely provide some interesting ideas and topics.

You are definitely a Libertarian. I like Ron & Rand Paul (love Rand's stance on the Covid jabs and fortitude against Fauci) and like Lew Rockwell. I have always respected Libertarians and found them to be good people. I think the only time I find fault with them is when they 'straddle the fence'. That may show more tolerance (I emphasize that I am aware of this possibility) but I find it troublesome at times as I see things so clearly on the right. It is just the way I am and I will be the first to admit it. So, that may or may not be good but it is what it is and to me, the
middle-of-the-roaders frequently become "roadkill".

Rand is compromised

You are allowed to defend your life and property. In a community sense you are allowed to make “citizen”arrests. Thus every citizen is allowed to act against those who steal or attempt to steal from you or the community. The use of deadly force is limited but your storm damaged home is still your home and in Florida the Castle doctrine applies.

Try defending your property sometime and see how expensive it gets.

So let them take your stuff? Do nothing? Help them load it up?

Well, your employer helps them load it up and you don't do anything about it, right?

Never seen that at my employment. Not a big robbery target. My employer has to decide how to defend their property and I decide how to defend mine.

Look at your withholding, you know, the money that your government sends overseas.

Lol, right gotcha. It’s a game of inches and they have pushed it subtly to their goalie.

Yep, and that doesn't include all the hidden taxes

My employer has a sign on the front door proclaiming "NO WEAPONS PERMITTED ON THE PREMISES" which makes me feel totally safe.

Of course, all criminals fear violating such a posting.
