[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 777988, member: 13921"] You just do not get it. Let's try and explain it with real simple examples. When I was a kid, my folks bought me a bike. They told me to put it away when I was done riding it. Didn't always put it in the garage and one night it was stolen. I didn't do it, but it was certainly avoidable if I had put it away. Wouldn't you agree?? Another example, this one with a UPSer. A UPS driver is in the habit of leaving his key in the ignition while delivering. The person separates the keys in the morning, putting one in the bulkhead and the other in the ignition. He finishes a delivery and cannot find his truck, it was stolen. He did not steal it, yet had he not left the keys in the ignition, maybe it would not have been stolen. We are told day in and day out that the people driving around us are idiots. We are also told to make ourselves as hard to hit as possible. Why would you not follow the directions of the people that have the power to fire you??? [/QUOTE]
