You get to hear it alot in NY.
And other blue state bastions of liberal non-thought.
Criminals have successfully sued homeowners here for injuries they sustained while committing crimes.
Say, badguy gets hurt in your house, he then sues you for negligence.
Cash cow for lawyers and the state, so why would they bother fixing the issue?
Of course, I did like the guy who put razor ribbon on his gutters.
Some idiot badguy tried to climb up on the roof from his back porch, diced his hand up real good.
If a criminal loses his/her fingers, makes harder to steal later on.
That is a wonderful idea.
