    If you enter my property, I call the police. Enter my house without permission and you die. The "enter my house without permission and you die" applies to everything that moves from bugs to people, although if you are a cute bird or bunny, you get a pass and I catch and release.

    Same here. I'd shoot them. Just hope I can decide fast enough which gun I should choose.

    I thought this was supposed to be a Christian forum.

    It is. At the moment we are leaning heavier toward justice than grace. A looter, in the process of looting, will get little grace from me.

    It seems like they want it to happen doesn't it. They are practically fantasizing about it.

    I'm confused. Do you want Christian sympathy for those actively and unrepentingly engaged in sin?

    I prefer placing a big picture of Jesus on the dining room table with a sign saying "Jesus is watching you."

    Someone I know has a friend in Houston, who has no power and water 6ft deep in the house. They spent the night singing How High's the Water Momma?

    Nope. People die because they are scared to evacuate for fear of being looted.

    Didn't Jesus say something like "If somebody steals your shirt, give him your coat also?

    It is. Self defense is commanded by our Lord. Luke 22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

    I knew a preacher who visited prisons, and one time in a young offenders institution he was visiting a lad who said "When I get out, I am coming to rob you." The preacher replied, "I'll give you my address, but why would you risk coming back in here when if I have anything you want I'll give it to you?" On his next visit, the lad said, "When I get out I will visit you, but I won't steal anything." On his next visit, the lad said, "When I get out I will visit you, and I would like to give you something." The preacher said "That depends on where you got it."
    He was a German Jewish Christian who escaped from Hitler's Reich before the 2nd WW.
