Me thinks option B. I would definately NOT have the weapon drawn while I confront them. I t COULD be seen as escalating the situation. But, I would definately have a hand on it ready to draw as necessary

This happened Sunday of the week before last...
BTW, Earl appreciates all of the commentary so far in that one...Even the critical commentary...
Thats the reason why I posted it...Since we are basically talking about if property is worth more than a life...

I would have the wife call 911 and put the cross hairs on the scum. (I never travel with out my CAR-15 / 3X Colt scope.) If they tried to leave prior to the police arriving, then I would shoot to stop them from getting away with my property. Their lives are worth nothing to me, mine is worth a lot, so I would never increase my risks to give them a chance to give up.
The prefered outcome would be the police getting there in time to catch them, the second option is to stop the theft of my property.
