Hi Martin,

According to http://www.baitcar.com the theft rate in areas where the
baitcar program has been implemented is down by 17%. And in one case
with a baitcar motorcycle the police were able to recover 5
additional stolen motorcycles from the location where the baitcar
bike was intercepted.

Wow.... has the legal prefession sunk to the point where parking a
valuable vehicle is enterpreted as "Enticing crime"??  That would
make it an offense to lock the door to my house, because it would be
"forcing" the criminal to break and enter.
