Cry baby car thief

[w2amr]

It's bad police work. They should put that effort into the community. I'm not trying to defend car thieves. I do think these sting operations that target this particular segment is like shooting fish in a barrel.
"Dude! It's an Escalade!"
Make the same show using older type cars that rappers don't care about and watch what happens. You might start catching some career criminals. The way it's set up now, it's like they are just trying to pad their bottom line.

They were saying that In some of these town like Compton, Car theft is out of control. They have to do something to try and slow it down. Maybe if they just asked these poor babies nicely to stop stealing cars ..............

You know, George, I never said anything remotely like that. If you want to play that card as many often do, there will never be a real solution to the problem, just more cold medicine to mask the symptoms.

I get the distinct impression that you're not paying attention to what I said.

Let's review.

"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. "

Yep, I got it.

And yet, you didn't seem to assimilate this part:

See, if they were really interested in stopping car theft, that's what they'd be looking to do. Instead, they're making a big deal out of trapping the lowest rung of the criminal ladder. It's all bullshit--they're just trying to make themselves look good and give the voyeurs a thrill. That's not real law enforcement, it's show business.

Tell that to the car thieves who are serving time for grand theft auto.
