20. Oh please, we have these car thefts around my otherwise safe neighborhood every now and then.

It’s kids looking for unlocked cars. A neighbor of mine had his extra credit card he keeps in his car stolen, also about 50 bucks, a car charger, and a bottle of vodka.

When he called his cc company he found out the thief was trying to buy hundreds of dollars worth of underwear, of all things. And computer games.

Police don’t have to entrap people to steal from cars. Even if they did, that’s still theft!
