If anyone gets just 5 years for murder or even rape, that`s wrong but you don`t endanger other`s property to save your own stuff. So if your neighbor burns down your house while torching weeds in his yard, that`s ok? Interesting logic, you do know even the justifiable use of lethal force carries a penalty if you also wound or kill an innocent bystander.
I think you need to get into the details about burn offs and proper land management especially during drought conditions. You sound like a city dweller. Maybe I’m wrong, but you surely don’t sound like anyone familiar with “country” living.
