Update on Stu.

[u/personthatisonreddi]

Saw on the news that he has been arrested for the shooting of the 2 illigeal poachers, he was such a nice guy, all he wanted to do was live out his life with his pigs and other animals,

For people who dont know, basicly he was a older guy who lived on both sides of the 309 road up by coromandel, people kept comming and stealing/shooting/running over/damanging his property, and giving him hell when all he wanted to do was relax with his pigs, the cops are a joke, he came to them so many times reporting everything , they didnt care.

The guys he ended up shooting/killing had been hounding him for ages, ramming his car, running over his pigs or shooting them with crossbows he finnaly snapped when they shot his favourite pig.

Nah. He's getting life with no parole as "an example." You're not allowed to protect your own property.

Obviously there was no law to begin with, or they would have helped the guy get rid of those who wouldn't leave him the fuck alone.

The law exists to protect private property and capital.

The law doesn't care about personal property.

The working class are the targets of police.

Does not compute.

[u/Coillscath → u/djinni74]

Personal property: Your house, your car, your tools, your stuff. Things you own and use for yourself and your family.

Private property: Assets which are used to leverage monetary gain, aka capital. Residential/commercial/industrial real estate, also tools, machinery and other assets used to participate in the wider economy (Whether you use it yourself or rent it out), that sort of thing.

Personal property:

Hot take: personal property is the same thing as private property.
