Some Friendly Police Advice

In the latest installment of the Fullerton Police Department’s iWatch Alert System I noticed some friendly police advice: “Fullerton Police remind you to keep your valuables out of view in your vehicle. This includes purses, GPS devices, music players, cell phones, and other electronics. Either take them with you, or place the items in your trunk.”

Isn’t that the same thing as telling women to cover their bodies or they may become a victim of sexual violence?  The implication is that women who are dressed provocatively and who are assaulted could have prevented the attack. 

Is that really the advice we want our police department to give or should we be raising good children to be good adults?  Doesn't crime prevention begin with sound parenting?
