Nah, if you effect other people's property, you are morally responsible for the foreseeable outcomes. You don't get to absolve yourself of responsibility because you've decided that their preparedness didn't meet your expectations.

Some examples, e.g. court judgements?

You need laws to stop you from being a shitbag, messing with other peoples' stuff?

The person you're replying to was also careful to say you are morally responsible. That has nothing to do with legal issues.

[127361]

Sorry. Yes I agree that you can be morally culpable for it, but not legally. I didn't notice the distinction there.

I should also apologize. I was over-aggressive in my response. Just ticks me off to see a comment that seems like it's defending messing with property of others (which you actually didn't imply, but instead I inferred it).
