It’s my fault.

After two years of locking my cars up at night, I slipped up Wednesday night.

Two years ago, I complained to the police. I was asked, “Did you lock your rigs?”

I said no and was told it was my fault.

I was asked if I belonged to a community watch group. I said no.

I have been broken into dozens of times. If it wasn’t locked or nailed down, it was stolen.

One time, they emptied my boat, and I mean emptied. Everything was taken, a couple of thousand dollars worth of fishing equipment.

My fault again.

My question is, can I set a trap? Is that legal?

If their butt was sticking out of my rig, can I kick it?

So it’s my fault while the thieves get nothing but my stuff.
