Well, damn! Missed the date. It popped up on TD in a ad at the bottom and I just assumed Chicken wouldn't allow such things.

Well the cops are mad they didn't think of it first. Bait bike, video evidence, beating someone. Just needs a dog to shoot and it checks all the boxes.

Curious as to exactly what law was broken here? Sure they filmed it, but it was their property being stolen on their property.

Ok I put the bike there on purpose? Nope I just keep forgetting and they just keep stealing it.

Is there a no hunting over baited field law?

There's a YouTube guy the does glitter bombs for package thieves.


But he's not hitting the thieves with baseball bats. Likely that's the issue.

Also, had they not filmed it or done it more than once, likely no charges at all.

Well they chased them down the street to beat them.

Not that I have anything against it, but it was basically assault with a deadly weapon when there is no threat to you.

“In the videos, it appears as if the suspects planted a bicycle in the front yard of their residence, unsecured, and waited for someone to try and steal the bicycle,” police said in a written statement. “Once someone tried to steal the bike, the suspects would rush from the house and assault the individual with a baseball bat.”


Sounds like they're doing the world a favor.

Ultimate case of this:
quote:


The murders of Haile Kifer and Nicholas Brady occurred on Thanksgiving Day of 2012, when Haile Kifer, 18, and her cousin, Nicholas Brady, 17, broke into the home of 64-year-old Byron David Smith in Little Falls, Minnesota, in the United States. Smith shot the teens separately and 10 minutes apart as they entered the basement where he was, later stating to police he was worried about them being armed. After already shooting them once, he repeatedly taunted them while they were injured as he shot them both in an execution style until they were dead. He did not report that he had killed Kifer and Brady until the day after the murders, keeping their corpses in his closet. On April 29, 2014, he was found guilty of two counts of premeditated first-degree murder. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

That's not it exactly. What they're mad about is someone taking the law into their own hands and they perceive it was showing them up. That would be my guess.

It really shows just how broken California is that a couple defending their property from thieves are seen as having “lured” and “assaulting” them. This is where the leftist mindset leads you.

Maybe there really isn't any hope for California.

Visalia is no where near the coast. It's so far inland it's almost in Arizona, so if any place in southern California would have a chance at what I call normalcy, it would be far from Coastal California.

Anyone want
odds that the police will avoid a jury trial at all costsz?

They fricked around and found out. No one put a gun to their head and told them to go rob a crazy old man. They made their decision and when you do you accept the consequences that come with it. The real tragedy is their parents didn't teach them this simple fact of life.

Sadly Smith had no chance whatsoever simply from being in Minnesota.
