You seem to be confusing descriptive for normative.

They're stating a fact, not asserting the fact justifies some behavior.

It's a glib fact (and in fact, not even a fact as you by definition cannot assert something that didn't happen as a fact) that detracts from the theft.

But sure, yes, if they had not been stolen, certain items may have been destroyed. OK. And, so what, what's your point beyond this trite truism?

The point was to attempt to correct an apparent misunderstanding.

What's the point of your weirdly aggressive hostility?

What do you see as being the apparent misunderstanding?
