Hi AskNoah,
Theft is the physical taking of someone else's property without their consent. Thinking in terms of the Seven Commandments, including a positive obligations to have officers to support righteous courts of justice, when is it justified for a "justice officer" (as opposed to today's police force which do more to fail justice) to take or seize someone else's belongings? You know that today's police grab almost anything of value: money, cars, guns; they go into people's houses and properties and for various reasons take things, sometimes for profit, sometimes because they feel they have the power too (like taking the vehicle of individuals because they don't have the government piece of paper), but other times for investigation. Based on Seven Commandment justice, what constitutes as theft and what is not? When are justice officers justified in seizing someone's property?
