In MA, if he gets so much as a hangnail while breaking in or or hurt feelings while you trying to verbally stop him, you'll get sued and probably lose. I envy those of you that live in states where citizens are neutered. The criminals have more rights than law-abiding folks.
Had it been me, It would take every molecule (and then some) in my body to restrain myself.

Great job John!
a few miles north of Worchester its live free or die, CCW is 14 days away and go figure its number 1 on the best places to live in the US Per fourtune Magizine. Crime rate is LOW and unemployment is 4%... No state income taxes.. If it werent for the !#$% Snow and lack of car fun I would love it
That screwdriver can be considered a deadly weapon. The thief should count his blessings he still has a pulse. I'm glad you didn't get hurt or any legal trouble. I think you handled it good, but there was a serious risk to your life by making physical contact.

Half my family moved up there and a few moved down to FL....My wife's fam refuses to leave so I'm pretty much stuck indefinitely.
Unfortunately, NH is slowing becoming MA due to transplants that didn't like the cost of living here but they can't give up their free services and Nanny state politics. Cost of living is climbing in NH.
Glad to hear that punk got what he deserved. I would've done the exact same thing, but probably worse(nail-gunned him to the side of my house and left a note for the cops and gone back to sleep).
Way to go man. Your story made my day.
Of course, it sucks about your door. It's good your neighbors were available to dial 911.
I love the nail gun idea! A screwdriver and a nailgun, perfect. I have a coil nailer that rips them off pretty fast, he'd be stuck to a wall in a hurry!
The guy is lucky he just got scuffed up.
in arkansas we will shoot first , hide the body second , then deny any involvment
Where I grew up that was known as:
Shoot
Shovel
&Shut Up

Dude, great story. I must admit, it's nice to hear some street justice is done every now and again. If you've never been ripped off before (car, house) it's hard not to want to see someone pay for it, on the spot. The fact that you are in So Cal and still addressed this guy is impressive. It seems like thieves get away with everything down here and never have to pay, even when they are caught. Hats off to you for having the courage, and if we ever do business, I'll make sure you get paid same day since I know your personality now--LOL.
