the police do not have incentive to do anything and because of lawmakers, especially in California, they are hampered by the very system. from raising the dollar amount to what is a felony vs misdemeanor to requiring proof a car was locked before you can charge someone with breaking and entering; yes even if the window is smashed it still requires proving a car was locked which is more difficult that it is worth to them.

we bemoan all the time we have too many people in jail when what we have is the wrong people in jail; namely anyone with personal use drugs and failure to pay fines. then to top it off we have a system where politicians daily tell people how they have been cheated or that other people cheated them to get what they have which just gives too many the excuse they need. after all, it isn't fair someone has nice things. people fail to understand how years of this talk messes with a population. divide by fear, divide by envy, divide by race, divide by class, well the payoff is this type of behavior.
