re: #199 Dark_Falcon

I’m not opposed to that, with the provision that a person is not liable if they acted with ‘due care’, which in this case would likely mean a proper safe.

We wouldn’t hold a person responsible if he owned a properly trained a socialized pit bull that was stolen from him and then tortured into a monster by dog-fighters. We’d say that the original owner exercised proper care, but and that the wrong was done by the criminals who stole his property despite his diligent efforts to secure it.

I’m not talking about staffies, I mean pit bulls.
