Justified shooting or not?

Several teenagers were throwing eggs at passing vehicles. One driver,
whose vehicle was hit, chased the teens down and fatally shot one of them.

Considering this was vandalism and the kids were chased after, no.
Vandalizing the kids' vehicle on the other hand would have been fair
play.

No, but maybe a few days in jail for causing a road hazard.

To say the least. Throwing things at moving autos has too much potential
to cause an accident if the driver, not knowing what is comming at him,
takes evasive action that results in his causing another accident.

This where bringing back the stocks would come in handy !

Youi could them throw eggs at the kids.

I reckon that would be a very just 'reward' for their actions.

In which case it should be confiscated and crushed.

This is one likely outcome in the UK now for driving an untaxed ( expired plates to you
lot ), uninsured or unroadworthy car.

I like that idea! Could also apply it to the more flagrant traffic
violators too. Give them a week or so in the stocks instead of a fine.
Saves money on prison space and takes the revenue aspect out of traffic
enforecement.

Let the punishment fit the crime. As those guys in the Guinness ads say:
BRILLIANT!

Indeed. Maybe we could stick SADDAM in them for its LLBing habits.
