This is why we can’t have nice things.
Also, if this sort of group thug behavior becomes commonplace, the book “Fry the brain” will cross genres over into mainstream religious literature.
The most powerful and harmful influence Trump has had on our politics…has been the effect on his opponents. They have been triggered into an orgy of self-mutilation—eager to amputate their own history and disfigure their own political traditions.

As much as I'd like to grab my AR and take them all out, you can't kill someone for stealing your car. Now a days I don't 'think' that their threat would be enough to say that one feared for one's life, when all one has to do is stay in the house. If one ran out to investigate a noise, and then the a--hole pulled a gun, killing him/them might be justified.
Careful…that’s the first step on the road to conversion, brother. Lex Or should I say “Fryer Lex…”
More seriously, I am not one to find anything acceptable in killing people to prevent a car theft. That stated up front, standing in the yard and yelling threats about killing the owner moves the clock just a little closer to midnight. Still room to go, but man, what a bunch of punks.

If I recall correctly, didn’t someone mention elsewhere on this forum that @Tom Givens had stated that the only students he ever saw charged after an incident were those who left a position of safety to go confront someone?
Non-deadly force can certainly be used to protect property. If the thieves produced a gun, shooting at that point would be justified.
I would stay inside and call the police while being ready to deliver the appropriate response if more than yelling should occur.
