Once someone has stolen from you or someone else thier always a thief in my eyes. If your sure who it is post the name so we can blaspheme him. As far as what one should do to him/her, my choice would be that after you use the "force necessary that any prudent and ordinary person would use to defend yourself and your property," call the meat wagon.
Can't wash off the stink from being a thief. As hardas the thief tries those spots will not wear or wash off.
Disclaimer:I do not condone violence under any circumstances and if faced with violence I will turn on the siren on the way to the call to let the pounder know its time to stop being prudent with the poundee.
