Cry baby car thief

[NQ6U]

I'm with Charles on this one.

I don't like seeing police work made into entertainment and I also think that if they were truly serious about reducing car theft, they'd wait until the perp got the car to wherever he was headed and bust the fence. Judging by the one time I watched an entire Bait Car show, though, I think that most of the thefts were nothing more than joy rides so, now, they're mostly making felons out of stupid kids by giving them an almost irresistible opportunity. These kids will then go on to do time in the joint where they'll be exposed to real criminals and come out much worse that they were to begin with.

Many of the people people getting busted on these shows already have priors.
