Yep. And since they passed that law crime has soared. No neighborhood is safe. The thieves all know they’ll get a slap on the wrist. If the police even bother with them. Most of the time they don’t.
Eventually this will spawn vigilantism just like it did 150 years ago. I can think of at least one hard working ethnic group here in California that won’t accept the idea that thieves can steal from them with impunity.
