Anyone else blown away by that anecdote of St. Petersburg Police Chief Tony Holloway about stolen cars? In case you missed it, he was at a meeting of neighborhood leaders and pointed out that in a recent week 25 cars had been stolen in St. Pete. “How many keys do you think were in those cars? Twenty-four.”
That’s beyond dumb. That’s being a de facto accomplice.
And as we know, car thievery is not merely an owner-victim scenario. No one has ever suggested that car thieves are paragons of driving responsibility as they ride off to wherever to do whatever.
