The "sausage in a casing" look isn't something I'm fond of.

I thought this site got rid of it's biggest tool in Watchmaker...glad to see someone else is stepping up to filling that void. Welcome aboard!

Your new moniker should be "Lucy"...you still charging just 5 cents for your "psychiatric help"?

Don't know where to start with all of that noise...although the only fantasies I have are getting off a 3 game fantasy FB skid this week. But I got a pretty good read on you..."pussy" the cat. I'll say it one more time...from what I read I don't agree with the felony assault charge on the victim. Nothing more to it than that.

Another great effort again on your part...thanks.

To your 3 questions... yes, no idea and no. We don't have to agree on this. IMO based on the article I read I question the felony assault charge under the circumstance as the article laid them out.

He didn't kill him so what's your point? But I'll play along...no and no. I like it when some jump to extreme hypotheticals to try to get a point across when it is irrelevant to the discussion.

Hahaha...well played. Good to see you got a "pair" to make that post.

Not disagreeing. Just feel the victim when confronting the thief and seeing him trying to flee had the right to bring him to a halt from escaping. It's not like he went "Rodney King" on him.

1 GREEN and 1 pink. No moniker.

I guess if the victim would have gone "Travis Beck" on the thief's a** the discussion would be different! Bottomline...thief was caught and then took off and ran. I see no problem with the victim "subduing" the thief until the police show up in any manner he felt necessary. Just my opinion.

We will have to agree to disagree on most of what you posted above. Innocent til proven guilty...yes but that doesn't apply here. "Revolution"...no. Taking matters in your own hands in an obvious situation like this...kudos to that gentleman and the beat down he administered. Sometimes trash needs to be dealt with appropriately and hauled to the curb as it was in this situation.

+1 Yet there are some that wear them that can scar one's visual image for months!

Related to your situation, in June 2012 our home was burglarized when we were out of town for a soccer tourney. The Fargo PD did a great job AFTER I was able to piece together info from neighbors and basically tell them who did it, when it happened and how they gained access to our house. They were able to get evidence from pawn shops with ID log records and video. Two guys were convicted and one was already just released on parole a week ago.

This...^^^^^.

My bad in title of thread...this wasn't a robbery. It was theft.

This is it...

Per the Fargo Forum...a 23 year old Mapleton man steals a truck. The owner of the truck, a 57 year old Davenport man, tracks down the thief in the his stolen truck and confronts the thief. The thief trys to make a run for it and the man/victim is able to run him down and subdue him after he "beats" him with a metal pipe that he grab from his stolen truck. The thief is charged with a Class C felony for stealing the truck and the victim of the crime is also charged with a Class C felony for assault. Is this what we have become as a society?? Seems to be that those that committ crimes are increasingly getting more rights than the victims of those crimes. If you steal someone else's property and are caught by the individual that you stole from IMO a beatdown should be at the very least what you have coming.

No game 7 but what a series. Besides the NHL playoffs, I enjoy the MLB's playoffs. Great pitching this post season.

Hey...we are a diverse group.!

95 year...was pretty cool to see the Sox clinch a WS title at Fenway last night.

I would hate to be behind Muss when he is ordering ice cream on a hot lazy summer's day... "Vanilla...no...chocolate... wait, how bout a scoop of chocolate and....can I change my order?"

Agree...unless your are a fan of half a**ed effort most nights, tattoos, show boating, less defense than UND FB plays and chest thumping "look at me" BS. Definitely not for me...

Mid week prediction: 35-14 NAU

Just saw she apologized for the epic failure of the federal insurance website. I know for one I feel a lot better now!
