RSSFishing for criminals -- who's taking the bait?

@Nick, Wouldn't this be an example of how few people are interested in stealing cars? The small number of people who are stealing cars are responsible for stealing more than one. This makes it seem like a lot of people. I find it kind of odd that they take these guys down so quick. Why don't they wait and see if they take it to a chop shop? That would seem like it would be the most beneficial in preventing vehicle thefts.

With the stupid people who leave their cars running in the driveway to warm them in cold weather, it is a wonder we don't have even MORE cars stolen. I'll bet the number could be cut in half if those were eliminated. Perhaps the insurance companies should refuse to cover the theft aided by carelessness such as warming cars, keys left in the ignition, etc.
