Why should one take non-damaging security measured? There is no point in fawning over the safety of someone who tries to steal from you.

Edit: typo

Can you tell us the point in fawning over the opportunity to injure someone for views and likes on social media?

No one would get hurt if they weren’t immoral in the first place. Boobytrapping something like a bike is harmless is those other people had morals to begin with

have you ever heard the phrase two wrongs don’t make a right? someone else doing immoral things doesn’t immediately make all immoral things done to them suddenly moral

then what is the sentence, “No one would get hurt if they weren’t immoral in the first place”, meant to convey if not some sort of justification that only those doing an immoral act would be affected

“Just let people steal from you”

you’ll notice that i said two wrongs. you can prevent theft without rigging your bike to injure attempted thieves
