News from my home town. No camping/overnight parking We seldom park at Walmart etc... over night, but I do hate to see the opportunity to do so disappear.

OkSixpackP: I am sorry I misused the words "attractive nuisance."
Further research shows it only applies to children.
"In the law of torts, the attractive nuisance doctrine states that a landowner may be held liable for injuries to children trespassing on the land if the injury is caused by a hazardous object or condition on the land that is likely to attract children who are unable to appreciate the risk posed by the object or condition."

I make no excuses for the criminals here. They deserved what they got and more.
I agree that an honest person resists such temptations in a perfect world.
When I was a kid, an attractive nuisance would have got my you known what busted if I was attracted to it....but now that would be child abuse instead of parenting. Sorry, I don't buy the term "attractive nuisance" for any age. But we probably won't agree so no use in starting an argument....:)
Unfortunately, we humans are imperfect creatures.
Most scams require a greedy person to be successful.
I still believe that, in their never ending quest for sales, WalMart has gone too far in allowing overnight parking.
(Sorry, my comment got put in the middle......)
