Now that's funny, I don't care who you are.
Left her keys in her car?
Victimhood is 50% mental....duh

Victimization is 50% (at least) a mental condition.
Leaving your keys in your car is just dumb. And makes this really funny.
Bet she doesn't do that again. Oh, what am I saying, of course she will.

Keys left in car? It was only borowed not stolen? borrowed without permission. Wonder how her insuirance company would consider a claim arising from this incident?

Umm, the car thief stole the car, not the woman. Sure, leaving the keys in the car made it easy, but blaming the victim is stupid.

What about personal responsibility?

The city has an ordinance about warming up your car in your own driveway unattended and the police will give you a ticket for having your car stolen while your car is warming up. Considering this, did this woman receive a citation for being a victim of a crime in this situation?

Where's the picture of the guy who stole the car???? - yes, taking a car that doesn't belong to you is stealing, even if the keys were left inside. Don't blame the victim people, it was an accident. You shouldn't loose your car because of it.

It wasn't an accident - it was stupidity. I don't condone theft, but people who leave keys in cars or cash or valuables in plain sight are just asking to be a victim.
I would guess Kwik Shop would have some pretty good surveillance video of this guy if he was in line at the cashier.
