Wow, you two have the "if someone else did it, it is o.k." excuses down to a 
fine science.

The "can" do it, so it is o.k., right?  Well, then it means that because my 
car will easily do over 120 mph then I should be able to do it whenever and 
where ever I like.

Anyone can, with the proper equipment, break into your home and steal you 
blind.  Guess that would be o.k. too.  Anyone can, with the proper 
equipment, break into and steal your car.  Guess that would be o.k., also.

I mean, you must have always been aware that people could break in?  I mean, 
with newer survelleince equipment available at most Radio Shacks, thieves 
know exactly when you are and aren't home.

You do see the falacy of your argument, don't you?
