There are definitely scenarios, where a reasonable person would have to say "this action is very risk prone". And I personally think it's hypocritical to completely separate rape from any other crime. You can't argue, that in any other crime there's a certain responsibility put on the victim (your insurance won't pay, if you leave the car keys in), but rape, and only rape, dissolves the victim from any sort of responsibility for bringing themselves in a situation where this was very likely.

Since your scroll wheel is broken. I'm not saying you said leaving your keys in the car is a crime. Use context clues when you read it'll help a lot. I'm saying leaving your keys in the car doesn't stop the police from treating the theft as a crime. They'll still nab the perp the same as if your keys were in your pocket and doors locked. Especially since car theft stings are literally leaving an unlocked car somewhere with the keys in it waiting for a thief.
