When I lived in the City of Philadelphia, you could not leave a nickel in plain view in a parked car. The side window would be smashed, and the nickel (and maybe the radio) would be stolen.

ReplyDeleteNeither is the smash & grab. Let the punishment fit the crime. Smash a window, lose a hand. Take what's not your, lose what was yours.
