People speak of vandalism, graffiti, urban decay and blame these occurrences upon poor people, upon social groups that they see as being lower than their own.
This stems from a warped sense of self-esteem.
When you drive a car, you frequently see incidents of dangerous and illegal driving perpetrated by 'upright' citizens who are in a hurry to get somewhere.
Whilst your average 4 x 4 vehicle owner may not vandalise other peoples property, they will often commit acts of petty criminality without remorse.
Crime is crime; whether you steal cars or run red lights.
Stealing cars causes other people inconvenience, unhappiness and unnecessary hassle.
Running a red light may kill someone.
