That's like saying you came across a naked girl crying for help, and instead of covering her and giving her help, you just raped her also, figuring she asked for it by being naked. After all, who could blame you.
If I see someones plasma TV in a vehicle, I don't somehow think he's an idiot for leaving it where I can get it. It's his, not mine.
The thief shouldn't be surprised when I pop a cap in his brain pan, after all, it's just a TV. He would do much better to meet the cop rather than me. Either way, he doesn't deserve to walk among real Americans.
BTW, I live in Texas and agree with the guy in Pasadena shooting the 2 illegals robbing his neighbor. He would get a "no bill" from me if I were on the Grand Jury.
Er, well, it IS entrapment, actually. The police are setting up a scenario for someone to steal something - a scenario which wouldn't have happened if the police hadn't specifically engineered it. If the police didn't set up a car full of goodies, nobody would steal from said car. The police should probably be spending their time investigating crimes that have actually happened, rather than trying to entice people into committing a crime so they can bust them then and there. Of course, entrapment is its own reward - a quick and easy bust gives more time for coffee and donuts down at the local Dunkies, without all that onerous, unnecessary "investigation" stuff to have to worry about.....
If I were on Joe Horn’s jury I would deliberate about as long as it took for the bailiff to get us coffee and doughnuts. And then, after a nice snack, it would be NOT GUILTY!
If I were oni the GJ, I'd be asking if there was a procedure for awarding medals.
Thanks, I like what you said.
