When crime drives people from what they love

I hate it when criminals force good people to give up something or compromise their lives.
This entry in the Baltimore City Paper's Newshole by Chris Landers ends with this comment by a woman who had her scooter stolen: "I think I'm done with having a scooter," Tomlinson says. "I'm taking the bus to work."
How awful, to give up on what you love because someone's stolen it.
Of course, she may have no money to replace her scooter. According to the article, it was a 2007 Kymco, which goes for more than $2,000 on the high end.
I think, when they find the thiefs, she should be able to take away from something they love. It's only fair.
