People who think that death and/or debilitating injury is a proportionate punishment for theft (I'm not even talking about armed robbery), are insane.
There is a simple saying of "Two wrongs don't make a right." and unfortunately that is what we are seeing here that out of all options taken, she took the one that was completely reckless as she could have struck another person in the parking lot or something much worse. Had she killed him, the book probably would have thrown at her.
People love their vigilante justice, unless it's practiced in a foreign country.

The pregnant woman was from this link the victim of a crime. I don't see why committing a crime has to be risk-free. And don't tell me a wrist-slap from an overworked judge is a risk. It isn't.
If the theft had succeeded was her loss "proportionate"? I don't think so.

He won't. But the injuries will hopefully change his approach for the better. The justice system is not doing its job.

Very few jurors would vote to convict.

Reason: Travon comment - orphaned trolling in response to trolling
Attempting to kill someone over a snatched purse is beyond over-reaction. This lady was the victim until she decided to become the aggressor.
She had motive and opportunity to commit a crime and she took it with both hands. And her crime was far worse than petty theft. Also, people calling for criminals to be more harshly sentenced are talking about this woman too.

Reason: George Zimmerman - trolling/escalating
If you need to exaggerate to make your point, maybe your point is weak.
She didn't kill him, she didn't even say she tried to kill him. She isn't charged with trying to kill him. She tried to stop him, and she did... with minor injuries.
I don't think it's an overreaction at all ... these junkie thieves are picking working people clean from coast to coast and people are sick of it. I hope he Od's and dies the next time he gets high. I mean that from the bottom of my heart.

Attempting to run someone over with an SVU is attempted murder. Don't use backwards laws to justify things.
Exactly! The criminal scum-bags are taking over this country, and in many cases you can't do anything to protect your person - or risk getting in trouble yourself. It's a sad state of affairs, and it makes me sick.
I like when I see a junkie limping. That means somebody caught him/her and hit them in the knee.
Not only her unborn baby but any pedestrians who may have been passing by when she ran over the curb. A car is not a weapon and should not be used as such.
Not a weapon? I've used mine as a weapon on at least three occasions and I'm thankful to have had it to use.

Should not people who rifle other's property know theycould be badly hurt or die in the process?
