[QUOTE="Torch Red Tulsan, post: 2328008, member: 3696"] I caught your responsibility comment and have tried to be careful about considering it in my questions/responses. I guess I don't think it's absurd that a criminal would sell a stolen TV to purchase a firearm. The OP mentioned stolen jewelry, but I doubt they stole it to wear. With no numbers to back it up, I would conjecture that a large number of for-profit crimes are committed with the intent of purchasing drugs or guns So, if you're not saying the victim is responsible for what the criminal does with a stolen gun, which I completely agree with, can you help me understand the point you are making? I'm not saying safes are bad or that people shouldn't use them. My only point is that I don't villainize, or condescend to someone for not using one. My comments were from my interpretation of 0311 saying that, basically, it was the victims own fault for not adequately securing his firearms. Again, that was my interpretation. [/QUOTE]
