I'm actually not sure if this is considered RTP or not - if it isn't, it's just outside.

"just outside RTP" is about right, there's a Sheetz just south of there, I wonder if that would have happened if she went there instead. She got her car back at least, so that's good

One consequence of making cars harder to steal.

When I did repossessions on my days off from running a 24 hour gas station, all we needed was a wire jumper and screw driver to start and grab a car.

Thanks to what makes you cry when you lose a car key, it is no longer easy for a stupid fool to steal a car.

The insurance industry's goal was to save on claims. They cared less about turning a property crime into a major felony that could easily escalate to homicide.

Thank Heaven the lady and her family were not hurt.

Haha are you really blaming the insurance industry for causing more violent crime?

Holy crap, you really do have a warped way of connecting dots to create narratives that justifies your distorted view of the world, don't you?

A co-worker of mine has a name for this trait in people. He calls it "stinking thinking".
