Can you legally hit someone if they're stealing from you?

Say someone takes something from your own house and you notice it happening. If they play stupid or refuse to give it back, can you forcefully take it back, even if it means hitting them, without getting in trouble? I mean, what are you supposed to do... let them leave knowing 100% that they stole something of yours and then call the cops? Not only would that take way too long, giving the thief time to hide/dispose of what they stole, but it'd just be a huge pain in the ass. And you never might get your shit back.

You can beat their ass , yes....it all comes down to your statement to police... If you say you saw them steal, confronted them and they became violent an you defended yourself..it is fine...if you say ..I saw them take something and punched them in the jaw..then you will be charged... what did this person take?

Prolly get you for unlawful imprisonment and assault.
BUT Maybe if you beat the fuck out of them (just enough) and made them keep it on their person
until the cops arrived. Which means you have to beat them, detain them and call whilst making sure they diddnt
unload the merch on your floor. Interesting

Kill him, drag him into your house and put a knife in his hand, always works in the movies.
In fact 50% of the time it works 100% of the time!

I am thinking this dude is not legal, and someone stole a pipe or some weed...if that is the case then just beat this guys ass and leave out the part about the weed/pipe whatever.

I think in CA you have to run away and call the police. You can only stop someone from stealing from your body.
Lol.. actually you can use physical force. If you are a gun owner you can hold the suspect at gunpoint and make a citizens arrest.

legally.... hmmm. who cares?

in reality: someone fucked with you... u better get back at them before they go telling their friends your an easy target. besides, theres people you can pay to do that sort of thing for you.

you do realize the hypocrisy with asking about legality on a pot growing web site right?

in todays world, your lawyer being better then their lawyer is all that matters.

dont get even, one up the bastard and run a train on his sister.
