Yep the nerve of some people. Most everyone around here has “no trespassing signs” and own guns. A few are also small business owners who work from home and protect their stuff. While I never wish harm like that on anyone it won’t be the first time.

I wonder what the deep roots of psychological impact is in these types of behavior. I know next to nothing about such topic. It currently seems to be a learned behavior at the very least (outside of extreme conditions like drug usages, or a dying loved one and not being able to afford medical bills). I’ve known some very well off to do and people next to be homeless with varying childhoods growing up as well. I can’t think of a pattern.

Some grew up with rich parents and never had any wealth themselves so they feel the world owes them. Then again I’ve known people in the same situation and they are always so thankful and giving.

Then you have people who grew up below the poverty line. Some of them steal; others, would never steal even if their life depended on it.

While I am more interested in such a topic. I could easily see myself spending weeks researching for a better answer. I’m hoping someone with more knowledge can jump in and shed any light.
