A friend of mine recently had his car flipped over......yes, he had his car flipped over in the middle of the night. This got me thinking (because my family has had to replace a windshield and a back window because of stupid kids) What amount of force (if any) could you meet someone with if you caught them in the act of vandalizing your car.
I know that deadly force is out, and I wouldn't want to shoot anybody over a broken windshield (well, I did when I realized that someone had beat it in with a bat) Basically, my question is:
Can you respond to an act like this with the threat of deadly force?
As it is now, If I were to catch someone doing this, I would grab my mossy 500 and get them to stop, I guess and call the police. I don't even have any ammunition for the thing.
Thanks,
