"If you shoot someone stealing from you that means you value your things over their life."
I paid for those things using money I earned with my labor, which means those "things" represent a portion of the time and energy I expended in that labor, which is to say they are material representations of a tiny slice of my life. As such, I have every right to protect those things, just as I have the right to defend my life. They made the decision to steal, any and all consequences of that decision are all on them.
I fucking hate thieves, when I find out someone stole from me I fly into a rage. I had stuff stolen from me many times during my Navy career, and I made a point of maintaining security of my stuff as much as I could.
