Jim, I saw a shorter version of this video on cnn myself. My impression was that the story was only a story because of the video coupled with the 911 call. Attention holding drama.When vacant homes get robbed that's what it looks like. Usually goofy dressed teen males fumbling around. Using the footage of the cops strutting around with guns drawn was really too much. Ammunition for the conceeled weapons crowd. I know guys who robbed summer homes for a while as kids. Hard working family guys today who are ashamed of their childhood sillyness. A lot of people have no issue with homeowners blowing away kids for stealing there big screen tv's. A local pg. 16 news story at best. Just an example of big industry toying with emotions to keep us all hanging on to their bullshit.
Steve, fascinating take on the story.
I think your comparison is noteworthy - a life = a TV.
One thing that struck me about the video was that initially the woman is somewhat calm and not really too upset to see her things plucked through. Her anxiety seems to increase when she encounters the obstacle of the police bureaucracy on the phone. She calls and the receiver asks her what community she lives in. Right off the bat there's a disconnect between her proximity to the crime and the responders objectivity. It reminds me of the robot run radio stations where the people call in to report an emergency only to find out no one is at home. Now that is a robbery.
