Shooting a human being is not a federal jurisdiction in itself.And if you can’t use lethal force to protect property,why do banks use armed gaurds?
If I look out my window and I see a person taking boxes out of my garage, first thing I am going to do is call law enforcement. Then take my trusty .357 and go to work, like shooting the tires out from under the thief's car letting him know I mean business. I am not going to run out there and start shooting the guy full of holes for a box of junk.
If I am sleeping and someone breaks in...well that is a different game altogether..I am pulling out my 12 gauge and start shooting.
This is a decision every individual must make taking a person's life. The question is can you live with that? Nobody likes to be stolen from it pisses me off like everyone else, but it is only stuff, things and of course my first reaction would be shoot the bastard. But as a responsible gun owner I take owning weapons very seriously and this type of question is not a joke to me.
As far as the bank Currier go. If it came down to a person or a couple of persons trying to rob them, you know chances are that they are going to be armed themselves and mean business. They are not just going to walk up to a guard and hand them a little note.
That is why I give them a very wide berth when the Brinks trucks are in front of the bank. ;-)
