They Should Pay\u200c for It.\u201d<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wait, \u200cyou ask: <em>Are Kia and Hyundai hiring gangs \u2063of criminals to\u2064 steal each other\u2019s vehicles?<\/em> Not exactly. Apparently, they just didn\u2019t take enough precautions to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/no-spike-in-florida-coronavirus-cases-despite-no-mask-mandate\/\" title=\"No Spike in Florida Coronavirus Cases Despite No Mask Mandate\">prevent people<\/a> from stealing their vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019m not \u200ckidding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to the Council on Criminal Justice, the number of vehicle\u2063 thefts during the first\u200c half of 2023 was 33.5%\u200d higher on average than during\u200d the same \u2063period\u200c in \u200d2022.\u200b As data\u200c from Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Chicago, New\u2064 Orleans, Buffalo and Durham, North Carolina showed, motor \u200bvehicle thefts have \u2064more than doubled \u200bthis year relative\u2063 to last year,\u200b according \u2063to statistics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Why\u2062 are so many cars getting stolen? Apparently\u2063 it\u2019s \u200bthe fault\u2064 of <i>the \u200dcar.<\/i> The car \u2062wanted it. It \u200d <i>needed<\/i> to be stolen. That\u2019s the \u200dway this works. It\u2019s not the criminal \u2014\u200c the\u2063 car was just sitting there\u2064 \u2014 and the criminal was\u200b not a criminal. It was just someone\u200b like you \u200cwalking \u200cdown the \u2062street \u2064like a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ted-cruz-manages-to-trigger-leftists-by-doing-something-millions-of-americans-do-every-year\/\" title=\"Ted Cruz Manages To Trigger Leftists by Doing Something Millions of Americans Do Every Year\">normal human<\/a>, never having stolen a \u200ccar \u2062in\u200b your life, and \u200cthere you saw it in the\u2062 pure summer sunshine, a Kia. And \u200dyou say \u2062to yourself, \u201cLet\u2019s do this thing. The time has \u2064come. That is the easiest car to steal.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, drawn like a moth to the flame, \u2063you walked over to the Kia and you said, \u201cThat might not be a very nice car, I wasn\u2019t desperate for any of Kia\u2019s brands, \u200cbut now that \u2062I see it gleaming in\u2062 the summer sunshine and I know it\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/actress-sarah-paulson-talks-finding-the-humanity-in-clinton-whistleblower-linda-tripp\/\" title=\"Actress Sarah Paulson Talks \u2018Finding The Humanity\u2019 In Clinton Whistleblower Linda Tripp\">super easy<\/a> to steal,\u200c I \u2014 a lifelong \u200claw-abiding citizen\u200c \u2014 have decided to steal the Kia.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/show\/the-ben-shapiro-show\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH: The Ben Shapiro\u200b Show<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is the stupidest thing I\u2019ve ever heard. Try this: There\u2064 was a knife. It was \u2063sitting there\u200c in plain sight, and you were just \u2064drawn to it.\u200d You couldn\u2019t stop yourself, so you stabbed \u2063your friend in the\u2062 eyeball. You should probably sue \u2063the knife manufacturer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apparently,\u200d Hyundai and Kia did not \u200cequip some of their cars with electronic immobilizer devices that prevent cars\u2063 from starting unless they detect a radio\u200b I.D. code \u200bassociated with the car\u2019s rightful key. A\u2063 couple \u200bof years ago, videos showing how to hotwire the vulnerable cars began to \u2062pop-up online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hundreds of\u200c the stolen cars have been involved \u2063in numerous \u2064deadly crashes, armed robbery \u200csprees, and other crimes around\u2063 the\u2064 country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But \u200dthe thieves are not to blame for this. It was <i>the<\/i> car\u2019s fault. I simply can\u2019t\u200d believe they programmed these cars to perform armed robbery. Did you\u2064 know \u200cthat if you create a product that when it\u2019s stolen, it\u2019s your\u2063 fault?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is how dumb we\u2019ve become. How about some basic level of personal responsibility? Ah, but that might require more police, more active policing, more throwing criminals in jail and leaving them\u2062 in jail.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This \u200cis truly basic stuff, but not to those morons at The New \u200dYork Times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CLICK \u2062HERE \u2062TO GET THE DAILY WIRE\u2063 APP<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>vehicles, leading to a rise in car thefts.
