Is this a joke? It's unclear to me, a person without much understanding of the law. Aren't debtors prisons illegal?

Vandalism is a criminal offense, and >$400 damage is a felony here in California.
Luckily you can steal more than twice that at your local Best Buy in California and it's a misdemeanor. So take good care of your AirBnB but feel free to go to town at a Walgreen's. If you can find one.

I'm not seeing what your point is. The two things aren't really related. They aren't even the same crime.
