Faulty logic. Security devices exist because there are jerks like the guy in the video who steal things. In an ideal world, we wouldn't need security devices. Just because they left the device unsecured doesn't mean that they "deserved it" or that the guy had a "right" to steal them.

The next time you go into a store to buy something you deserve to pay 2-5% more because thieves steal things.

i'm just saying they "invited" him to do so by leaving them unlocked.
