This is a very good point, actually. So many times, some crime occurs and when the details come out, it turns out that the victim did something careless to make himself a perfect target. It might be leaving your doors unlocked. It might be leaving valuables on the seat of your car. It might be wearing flashy jewelry in a bad neighborhood. Or something along those lines. Many crimes wouldn't occur if people were more careful of their behavior and their surroundings.
