If they have to break into my home to steal said property, then you bet your sweet-arse I have the right to use deadly force.

I think there's a castle doctrine law here that would allow you to use deadly force if someone breaks INTO your house and you are inside. But if you see them stealing from your shed - or your neighbors house (and you know your neighbors aren't home so there's no threat to life) - or from your house while you're outside the house - you can't use it.
