To the people who leave their purses, bags, packs, wallets, etc. in plain sight inside your parked cars, and then publicly jeer the culprit in this column. There's practically one every week. A potential crook does not know that you have no valuables in the bag, or that you were "smart" and didn't leave your wallet inside the purse. They will break your window to find out for themselves. Be wise, and hide this stuff out of view, even if it contains nothing valuable. You still have to pay for the broken window, right?
