thread_title:  Carjacking different from car theft 

message: Carjacking is different from car theft; I modified the article a bit to try to make this clearer.   Information about ignition keys was mostly irrelevant to carjacking (since the key is in the car when a car is carjacked), so I cut it-- people interested in car theft per se can go to the car theft page, which is linked.
Also added a few links.

message: Anyone with knowledge of the subject knows that prison fugitives, typically on the day of their escape, highly favor carjacking as a means to evade recapture. That might me worth mentioning in the article.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.207.128.125 (talk) 14:48, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Prison Escapees

message: Try that in this US state, The law there reads that if the intended victim thinks someone will do that to him/her, he/she can kill the perceived carjacker and the DA is forbidden from bringing charges against the victim of the carjacking attempt.

replies: text: I find this highly unlikely.  In lieu of a reliable source both for the law and the interpretation, I have removed this from the article.  I doubt that any state in the US makes provision for one citizen to kill another because he thinks something might happen and simultaneously grant legal immunity for said killing. — Lomn 14:57, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Source also mentions that someone was shot and killed for carjacking, and it was ruled justifiable by the LA courts under that law. Powerzilla (talk) 22:04, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Even though Carjacking is something that happends in Sweden just as in all other countries it is not a very common crime (in Sweden) and there is absolutely no correlation between recent Somalian immigration and carjackings.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.191.245.141 (talk) 00:43, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

message: I don't have the authority to change it, or maybe it's that way for a reason and I don't know why. But this needs to be changed.
