Make my day, punk

A Republican senator for the American state of Tennessee turned into a rogue crime-fighter when he ambushed thieves after they stole his motorbike.
According to WBIR.com, Tim Burchett found that a motorcycle was missing from his warehouse two weeks ago.
But instead of waiting patiently for his insurance payout, he did what any upstanding senator would do and held an armed stakeout until the have-a-go-thieves returned.
And return they did, only to be greeted by 42-year-old Burchett and his pet Glock pointing at them.
"I exercised my first and my second amendment rights on this occasion, and I encouraged them to come on down the tracks," he told WBIR.com.
Like a true professional, he fed the teen delinquents cookies (while keeping them held at gunpoint) in order to extract information regarding the whereabouts of his beloved hog.
While waiting for the town deputies to arrive, he managed to find out where his bike - worth thousands of dollars - is being kept.
The thieves "need to be held accountable", he said, adding: "I hope these kids don't just get their Gameboys taken away from them for the weekend or something."
On his official website, Burchett is described as a small businessman who is part of the Knox County Young Republicans Club and the Greater Knoxville Beautification Board.
