Careful. Someone may accuse you of victim blaming

My comment is directed at OP's statement about the how "The thieves probably didn’t realize the backpack was full of frisbees....".....why the "probably"? Unless the bag is see-through, how would they know what was in there? If folks want to view my statement as blaming the victim....I can't do anything to help their poor interpretation of what I wrote.

“Probably” didn’t know it was full of frisbees as in, not as valuable as electronics or something. I think OP means, they thought it would be something valuable, it wasn’t, so maybe it was dumped somewhere and can be retrieved.

Yeah....that's what I said...."They saw a bag full of something within easy reach and has no consequences to them for stealing it to see what is in there.... it's like a present or lottery ticket."

I was joking. I commented in another thread when they asked how to prevent car break-ins in DC because it's very common. I said "leave nothing in your car. Not even an empty bag" because it makes a thief curious. I was then accused of victim shaming 🤣😂
