Considering the low incidence of Mensa members, National Merit Scholars,

what they desire rather than steal it from parked cars, I would hold

If they have guns for petty larceny, they're toast. We have tough gun laws
here, and they'll go up a long time.
Hope the few hundred dollars they boost is worth the time. They've already
busted into the next door neighbor of a State Cop...he only parks his
cruiser outside his house 3-4 times a week...
Hmmm....what were you saying about a dearth of Mensa members...?

I don't know where "here" is for you but we have rather stringent gun
laws in Illinois (even outside Chicago) and they are still dumb.

Had one moron break into a house about 3 miles from me out in the
country. Car sitting on the driveway and he still broke in during broad
daylight. Fought with the owner who, for some reason, didn't shoot him.
Oh, did I mention the car in the driveway was a fully marked sheriff's
department patrol car?
> Hmmm....what were you saying about a dearth of Mensa members...?
You have to remove YOUR mindset when you think about what the criminal
class will do. They don't think like you and me. If they did, they
most likely would not be criminals.
Who kills somebody for a dirty look? for a pair of new Nike's? for...?
See my point?

I don't know where "here" is for you but we have rather stringent gun
laws in Illinois (even outside Chicago) and they are still dumb.

Had one moron break into a house about 3 miles from me out in the
country. Car sitting on the driveway and he still broke in during broad
daylight. Fought with the owner who, for some reason, didn't shoot him.
Oh, did I mention the car in the driveway was a fully marked sheriff's
department patrol car?

You have to remove YOUR mindset when you think about what the criminal
class will do. They don't think like you and me. If they did, they
most likely would not be criminals.
Who kills somebody for a dirty look? for a pair of new Nike's? for...?
See my point?
