There's certainly a time and place to knuckle chuck, don't get me wrong.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Electronic,Motion activated, cameras for hunting should be outlawed right next to the battery powered waterfowl decoys.

All this tough talk about busting someone up is priceless.
Nothing wrong with blowing off a little steam and making thieves think twice before stealing what doesn't belong to them. :twocents:

Yeah, you're protecting other from crime.  Just like this tough guy wielding his own brand of justice was protecting his neighbor.

Breaking the law because you caught someone else breaking the law isn't old school. It's dumb. Even if I wasn't in the military, I wouldn't risk my career on some fools. Why risk an assault charge over these idiots? Let's say I did decide to go the other route and they do press charges on me. What am I suppose to tell the judge? "Sorry your honor, I'm old school"

Ignorance at its finest.

Wow, I can see hunt wa has gone places since I've been inactive. They got caught, Stealing is stealing. Simple as that.
They should be punished, just as I have been and everyone should be. Bad juju right there.
Glad to say I don't know these guys but If I remember correctly this took place within a few miles of our place.
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

*UPDATE*

Cody changed his plea to GUILTY. He now has to choose between 10 days jail, or 10 days electronic home monitoring.

I'm impressed.  Thanks for the update.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Sad that he has a choice, but at least there is some punishment and mark on his record.

 :tup:


any monetary fines?
Do you get reimbursed for the damage or would that require civil court?
