First of all, Heretic, a 410? Where the hell were you raised? Granny Price used a 12 gauge, and from experience, rock salt burns like hell when you get hit, and worse if you get wet.
I grew up in the country. Pranks were few and far between, but Granny Price had the only property in the county that you could grow decent apple trees on. The fact that the orchard was 20 yards from her back porch, and the Prices had a history of shotguns and rock salt, hell the family still owns the land, but jr dont care if you steal apples, in fact he took the fence down.
Now rival one up raids on our football rivals was a going thing. Never anything permanent, we used that powdered water color stuff from elementary school to paint the field house our school colors, hundreds of dollars of toilet paper on the high school grounds, stuff like that.
But I see your point. Eggs ruin paint jobs on cars, so yeah felony vandalism. However, I fail to see how deadly force was justified.
In Texas, it is still legal to shot people cutting your fences, which nobody has done in years. You can legally shoot someone approaching your camp fire who does not identify himself first, although you cannot have open fires on public lands, and pretty much nobody you dont know will approach your fire on your property, so the law is a bit moot.
