That’s a straw man. Your ‘reminder’ was offered as an aside (‘in the meantime…’) to a rant about ‘real crime’ being ‘out of control’ because ‘criminals aren’t being punished.’
Perhaps that’s why your post isn’t being as well received as you desire.

I guess Volo league was also ranting in their email about "increase of theft" and law enforcement "limited manpower", and being looking for "a solution that leaves players feeling secure in our playing locations".
Stay safe in your bubble.

Maybe Volo league can supply an extra official to watch your bags. Or you could all just throw them in the back of the goal and call it a day.
As for staying safe in my bubble… I’m not the one worrying about stubbing my toe at the soccer field here 😆
