I'm not so sure about that. What I was talking about, was how he threw away the beer that was stolen. If it wasn't worth retrieving, then it wasn't worth shooting someone over. That puts him up against a wall on a whole bunch of those statutes that you posted.

sure it's worth shooting somebody over. IMO

now is it cost effective,to shoot/kill somebody over beers, not really.

but as a retailer are you gonna sell "road rashed" beer. naw.

If you're referring to TX law, no- the law only addresses real and tangible property.

Morally it's an interesting question. Technically you're taking "something" without paying for it, but the actual losses to the rightful owner are only theoretical- you wouldn't necessarily have purchased a song or service that you took for free, you may have just done without, and the net revenue to the owner would be exactly the same. So i would say no.

e-thugs in this thread, lol.........You can say "hooray for him" all you want, but something makes me doubt you'd have done the same if you were the clerk

Your right, I would have drug them back in the store and placed a knife in each of their dead hands before the cops showed up.

I would have wanted to due mainly to all of the prior robberies and thefts but honestly...you're right...I wouldn't have shot him over beer. A beat down...absolutely if possible...taser...sure. :lol:

I'm not an e-thug...just saying... :lol:

Oh Rider, you're so macho.

Macho has nothing to do with it. I have an extremely low tolerance for thievery.

So have any of you guys downloaded music illegally? Snuck into a movie without paying? Cheated on your taxes?

No, No, and No.
