If they are, then they should be illegal. If they are illegal, and this qualifies, then this guy should be punished.
None of this negates anything I said previously.

I feel for this guy. He is getting screwed by a high-violence region. But his approach to solving this problem makes the world worse, not better.
A criminal came to his private property and attempted to steal. He was able to keep the person there - for less than ten minutes - until that person was arrested. Presumably that person is in jail now or at least on probation.
Please explain how just letting this person steal leaves the world better than having him get punished for his actions. When victims of crime shrug their shoulders and just say "aw shucks" it incentivizes more crime, which makes the world objectively worse.
What is the alternative? Paying people to track down criminals is how law enforcement works almost everywhere.
did i get that right
