But I think it's completely separate from assigning blame for a crime. "You could have avoided this" should never be part of the discussion when a crime has been committed. It doesn't take much to reduce the idea to absurdity. "If you hadn't gone out on a date that night, the drunk driver who killed your fiancee would not have slammed into the side of your car."
Well, its not me who assigns the blame for a crime, its the law. And the law states that the blame of a crime lays on the perpetrator.
I simply state that there are crimes that can be prevented by taking some simple measures of safety that can be useful in warding off criminals.
