did they steal anything?
That's a no then?Is the news story blaming them for braking too hard? try using that excuse if you shunt someone, oh the vehicle in front braked too hard and I ran into it.

If you are the victim of a burglary, the best you can hope for is being given a crime number by the police which you can then pass onto your insurers.Unless someone is seriously injured whilst being burgled in their own home the police do not ‘have the resources’ to investigate further.‘You can’t take the law into your own hands’.Unfortunately.
Have just watched the video MN posted in comment #2.A couple of things, the trial of the would be burglars would have been separate from the trial of the homeowner, the sentences would not and should not have been weighed against each offender (eg the burglars didn't go to jail so we can't jail the homeowner)The 'scrotes' sentences were affected/discounted by their injuries.The offenders previous would have been taken into consideration.The word 'armed' was used in one comment but only 'armed' in relation to tools of burglary nothing more.Whether they were wearing helmets or not is irrelevant.They plead guilty.Either party can consider an appeal.Consider what the country would be like if everyone took the law into their own hands.If you are not in court listening to and evaluating evidence it is extremely difficult to make an informed decision about what has occurred.
