Would a thief not take precautions to avoid having his own home robbed just because he is a thief himself?

There are many things countries and people do which they will not accept having done to them in turn.

True, but if an objective party was reporting on this, I think they would mention that it was in fact a thief taking such precautions, rather than a non-descript local resident.
