I thought about getting something else ... 0IIII0 is unclaimed in NH, but I figure whoever stole the first one would do it again. :mad:

Is it legal to bait for thieves in New Hampshire?

Is there a bag limit?

Not really. If you’re going to die when you get caught anyhow, once you’ve already done it once there’s no more incentive to stop.

A far better way to reduce theft is to stop incentivizing it. If people aren’t desperate – they can afford to live, put food on their plates, have access to  the healthcare and education they need, and don’t need to seek an “out” from their existence through drugs, etc. – theft won’t be worth the hassle or whatever risk is associated with it.

The ultimate theft deterrent, capital punishment. 

 

Don't want to execute'em for stealing my plate, but I'd sure like about 5 minutes with them in a room with no doors or windows.

this plus cracking down on the ways that they can resell things.  it's harder to get money for a cat converter if the junkyards won't take them.  Detroit finally did something about all the missing manhole covers by threatening the scrapyards. 

 

but the plate was likely stolen because of pure selfishness.  it's hard to combat that.  :fistshake2:

I ocaisionally get distracted and leave my keys in the unlocked Jeep. ADHD living right there.

I live on one of the main (but not very busy) routes through town, and I haven’t even had tools or change taken out of an unlocked vehicle. It’s almost like strong community spirit, single-payer health care, and good social programs that will always help you out no matter who you are actually work or something...

but, but.......isn't that SOCIALISM??  Funny how SOCIETY benefits when the individual is included meaningfully in the national product....that constantly touted and most base measure of national success.

There must be a forum where remarks like this are appreciated.   :thinking:  Can't think of one, but there must be.
