So, when and if he gets his car back, nothing will be done to make him whole. The thief, if the police even catch him, will get a short time in lockup with three hots and a cot. The car owner will get higher insurance premiums and a dinged up car. I don't blame him for shooting at the car because that was the only way he was going to get justice in this bizarre system we've created where criminals can sue the people they rob for trying to protect their own property.

BTW, I wouldn't have fired that shot unless I was absolutely certain I would hit what I aimed for and not an innocent bystander.

But, hey, when are we going to start requiring that these crooks work to pay off the damages and that money go to the actual victim? Yukons are pricey vehicles. A car thief would need about a year at a minimum wage job (chained to prevent escape) to pay something like that off, if they had no rent or other bills themselves. By the time they were done, they'd have employment skills.
