6. They shoot car burglers in Texas? In NY, they do nothing at all.

And then the city runs you around for days just trying to get it back. They lose track of it for days, and when they finally find it, they have the nerve to charge you hundreds of dollars storage.

Seriously? Shooting car burglers???

Ok ok I get it that he wasn't stealing the car. It was his own car. But even if it turned out to be a burglery, why shoot him?
