My neighbour...who is very a nice guy...was telling me recently that some tools were stolen out of his shed.

I was stunned to learn that he has NEVER kept a lock on it!
Now consider this; We live on a street that has a decent amount of foot traffic, there are often work crews nearby (hence people we don't know) AND he chose to put his shed on the most exposed side of his house with the front of it FACING the street.

What's more he often leaves the door open.

I mean, sure, it's nice to be basically trusting of people...but for Pete's sake!

 

I can remember way back when a liberal was one who was generous with his own money.

"We cannot expect the Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find they have Communism."
