I was responding to a parent comment which said "capital (i.e. private property)", not coming up with my own definition or wording, so if you have an issue with the semantics, please take it up with them.

That said, the police usually aren't especially interested in protecting business assets and property from being damaged or stolen either. Ask any business manager or owner who has had property damaged or stolen, and they will tell you that the police (in most areas) don't particularly care.
