I understand in some states it was actually a hanging offence to steal a horse, but I won't go into that.
I'm sure it's not any more in Canada. In fact, I know it's not.
I'm wondering about another situation that arises from time to time, which is obviously the situation that needs to be discussed by judicial means in deciding cases. Often people's homes will be continuously broken into. From time to time, people have set traps in their homes near windows or doors, and those traps sometimes have a fatal conclusion or sometimes maim a person.
Would that be considered something of reasonableness?
