A simple message to thieves

Look at these examples of failure from just one small city in the last week.   Stealing stuff doesn’t work like it used to.  Get used to failing or get some professional help to get out of the rut you are in.
It used to be you could get away with stealing 70% of the time. The arrests, if they ever came took a long time.  Now you can only get away with theft less than 20% of the time in some spots. And the recoveries are happening faster and faster. Over 50% of the time you are consistently losing. It’s just not worth it for you to do this in anymore.

You don’t know which one of the thefts are going to be reported to everyone nearby right away. You don’t really know how many Lightcatch users are nearby.  When people used to call 911 to get help it never included a photo or video of what you looked like.  Now with Lightcatch, 10,000 people, plus every police officer around you, will be seeing what you just did instantly.  The whole game has changed.

There is a pretty good size list of those who did get arrested with the help of Lightcatch. Some of them are still in jail. Many others got sentenced. When you do get arrested it’s harder and harder not to get a record for it.  And for what?

Why don’t you just escape somewhere and try a fresh start? Why don’t you tell someone you need help? Because it’s not worth it anymore.

There is no such thing as a ‘gangster’. The real world isn’t like Grand Theft Auto. You are alone. This is real and it’s not working anymore. It’s time to get out.
