no, just a career criminal.
i mention this individual so that you have evidence to clearly view, he is moving up the crime scale, slowly but surely, year by year, offense by offense. yes, i agree totally, it won't be until he shoots or beats someone that he MIGHT be put away. little consolation for his victim(s).
It's hard to believe the discussion progressed this far without someone citing what the law in Wisconsin actually says about defense of property:

Not really hard to believe considering that the OP asked for "thoughts" not the Wisconsin law. Not that your cite isn't appreciated.
What the hell good are "thoughts" about it if he's in jail for murder for protecting his steak knife set?
Some people like to think Sparticus, and even have converstations about that which they are thinking about with other people who think. You may like to try it yourself sometime.
We do not have castle doctrine in WI. therefore we may not use deadly force to defend property. If you do use it in defense of property you will likely be charged with "murder". I believe that we should have castle doctrine and that this should be extended to your vehicle. I believe that if someone breaks into my house at night, I should not have to wait around to determine if he is after my ceramic cat figurine collection or to take my life before I may use force to stop the threat. If the intruder happens to die as a result of this force, it may be a senseless loss of life, but better the loss of their life at my hands than my life at their hands.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. If I shoot your child, I would feel for your loss, but they would be ultimately responsible for their death because of their actions. I would feel horrible if someone killed my child but if my child were breaking into their home, I would not hold ill will toward the person.
