I took an extreme example? Your example was fucking insurance claims. We're having a conversation about victim based crimes and you use an insurance claim as an evidence that victims get blamed for crimes all the time when that's simply not the case. Murder is a crime, leaving your car unlocked with the keys in the ignition isn't. Do better and people won't accuse you of defending rape.
Where did I defend it? Where did I say that leaving the keys is a crime?
You're putting words in my mouth.
Since your scroll wheel is broken. I'm not saying you said leaving your keys in the car is a crime. Use context clues when you read it'll help a lot. I'm saying leaving your keys in the car doesn't stop the police from treating the theft as a crime. They'll still nab the perp the same as if your keys were in your pocket and doors locked. Especially since car theft stings are literally leaving an unlocked car somewhere with the keys in it waiting for a thief.
