And no, they don’t have any reason to chase him down even if they think he stole a gun from their vehicle. This isn’t the wild west. Protect your stuff, lock your car, better yet put it in the garage. People have a right to be on the sidewalk whether you like strangers in your neighborhood or not.
So your advice to victims is it’s your fault a thug came into your property and stole something from you.
I guess you rape victims who happened to be wearing shorts at the time, for their rapes huh?
And not everyone has a garage. Just fyi.
