When someone uses their property to threaten the rights of others, their property rights can be justly overruled for that particular piece of property. But kleptomania is not needed whatsoever to effect such 'theft' and as far as I know, kleptomania doesn't limit itself to that kind of theft.
You get what I'm saying, right? I have the feeling we're arguing over some unimportant technicality. Except the theft of food thing, which I'd rather not get into (unless you insist).
