That's not why we have posted speed limits. Posted the speed limits are there to keep the regular driving public from bumping into each other other.

It's the same thing with padlocks. If a criminal wants to break in to your shit that has a padlock on it, then they're gonna break into your shit that has a padlock on it.

Criminals gonna crime.

It amazes me how some people see "deterrents don't work 100% of the time" and conclude "we should have no deterrents"

Well, I kind of agree with you. Even the most saintly motherfuckers on the planet would be tempted if there wasn't a lock. So yeah I think padlocks are necessary.
