I don't necessary agree with shooting someone for trying to steal your stereo, but what I do abhor is the fact that if you see someone in your car trying to steal your stereo, you can't take a handgun and a cell phone and go out there and aprehend him. Owning weapons in NYC is practically verboten (unless your rich or a celebrity)

I dunno. I certainly wouldn't want to work and work and work and have someone just take my shit. I like Colorodo's make my day law.

One of the premises I have seen arguing against shooting someone over a stereo is the stereo is only worth $200, and therefore is not worth a human life. However, consider the fact that the owner of the stereo had to invest a portion of his life to earn the money for the stereo, and therefore, the thief was stealing a portion of the owners life.
