Hard to believe how many people are concerned by that. So a cowardly thief gets glitter bombed and you are worried that they will come back!! Imagine how much worse it would get for them.

Think of it this way: You have made a 100 to 200 pound large hairless ape angry at you. This creature has human intelligence, and no interest in your feelings or your safety. Rather, it wants to make you suffer. It's more capable than the most advanced robot, and may hold onto its grudge and plan revenge over the next several months or a year.

Who wants to sign up for that?

You do realize it was a glitter bomb right?

They might still get quite PO'd. Also, if it's someone who's stooping to stealing packages, they might not be of the most stable mindset.

this was my first thought... especially if they saw it was a smart rich white guy who dissed them... you people live in a rainbow bubble.

I don't think someone being a thief makes them cowardly, and thus not open to coming back and throwing a brick through your window in retaliation.

A thief is already open to the idea of invading your personal space for gain, why not revenge?

The man spent months and months developing this thing, is that not revenge?

I don't understand why everyone thinks the homeowners are helpless and just waiting to be robbed/vandalized/whatever.

imagine if this bomb goes off in a cholo's lowrider how much worse it would become for you.
