Apparently this man’s FAFO meter was way into the red.
Time was when stealing a man’s means of conveyance (horse) would result in a long drop with a short rope. When the justice system treats you as an inconvenience when you are wronged and lets criminals plead down charges to the level of picking flowers without a permit don’t act all surprised when people take justice into their own hands.
I love to read mushy feel good stories like this one.
They tell you to let the police handle it, but they just let them go to steal again.
