Well...then whats the gripe?

 

Here's their sign...


 

Soo….cage, if it’s not yours it’s yours anyway if it’s not locked up?

 

i think his point was:

 

if you leave your stuff in the middle of a park, unsecured, of COURSE something bad is going to happen to it.

that's up there with ' if you stick your hand into a basket of snakes, you're going to get bitten' and ' if you drunkenly climb into the panda cage at the zoo after hours, because you thought the panda looked like it needed a hug, you're going to be eaten because a panda is a ******* BEAR."

( look that one up. guy in china did that. and yup, he dead.)

 

if i left my stuff unattended in the park overnight, then it's my fault that my stuff gets jacked.

 

i'm sorry that it happened. it makes me sad to know that something like this is so expected to happen that we look at the victim and think... well, duh... what were you thinking?

 

but regardless, that IS the world we live in and you can try and make sure you don't invite people to make a victim out of you, or.. as cage says... ' here's your sign.'

Sorta reminds me of the old TV ads from the late '60s wherein someone that didn't lock their car was supposedly encouraging a 'good kid to go bad'....BS.  If someone WANTS to steal your car (or any other personal property), whether the car is locked or not makes no difference.

 

In ANY society are people that LIVE to take advantage of any semblance of 'trust'.  Just because YOU wouldn't do anything bad, or illegal. doesn't mean that someone else wouldn't.  There is a certain 'entitlement' group of our society that feels that IF they can take something, then it belongs to them. When caught, they feel no remorse for the crime, but rather are sorry that they were caught.
