At what point do we consider a carjacking over? The violence of the action was ongoing. If this was their house, the person is still invading.
I’m aware of the letter of the law, I’m arguing spirit. I’m also ok with the idea that a civil society with a working justice system should discourage people from such actions. We’re not really living in that sort of system right now, especially if we’re talking about poor areas and marginalized groups. Might be a good idea for us to debate this shit as the populations underserved by our justice system keeps growing, and evidence that the US justice system exists only to protect the rich keeps piling up.
Yeah, that’s the thing. Based on my ideals, this is the wrong course of action. But for someone in the real world, especially someone already on parole, I really can’t blame them for assuming the police won’t give a fuck. Especially in America; losing your car can ruin your life.
