You can beat a car thief to death if you want to.

Yeah, no charges will be filed!

I think if you choose to steal a car, you are commiting an inherently
dangerous activity, so if you die during the act, no harm no foul.

In Florida,carjacking is considered grounds for use of lethal force for
that very reason;an inherently dangreous (to others)activity.

But it's still illegal to shoot a auto thief from your house's window.

So,it you are inside it when they try to steal it,you can shoot them,but if
you are a distance away,you can't. ;-}

So shoot them from the house and then hop in the car and call 911 from your
cell phone. -Dave

Yes, as one repo man found out. Well, he didn't find out; IIRC the
shot was fatal.

No, I'm not crying for the repo man. Far as I'm concerned, laws
which allow repossession without notice are just _begging_ for that
sort of thing to happen.

There's no such thing as a free lunch, but certain accounting practices can
result in a fully-depreciated one.

Why should a property owner(the person the repo man is taking the car for)
have to notify the thief(the one who has not paid fully for the property
they are using) they are rightfully regaining their property?
That just gives the thief another opportunity to hide(relocate) their
stolen vehicle.

In that case,it would truly be murder,as the possessor had no legal right
to possession,thus no right to defend against it's legal repossession by
the rightful owner.

A criminal(the thief) cannot claim self-defense (or property defense)during
the commission of a crime.They cannot steal someone else's property and
claim self-defense when the owner tries to keep them from running off with
it.
