Who are victimized more by thieves? Rich people or Poor people
There are some people who believe that thieves always rob rich people, but there are others who say that people who live in the ghetto areas are targeted as well, and they are poor. So who is victimized more? Rich people or poor people?

Since the poor have little to offer, the thief would have to steal from more then one house or person. Therefor they'd probably have to steal almost everyday. Most thieves wouldn't do that they'd steal maybe at the most twice a week. Therefor I say they would target the somewhat rich people. People who have good houses without that much security, I think, are targeted the most. Side: Rich People

There are two perspectives that you can go with this question. One perspective is that the rich people are more targeted by theives because they have more valuable things than what poor people have. However, the other perspect is what 92ninda (if i spelled the name correctly) said that the level of degree of vicitmized is higher for poor people than rich people. Side: Poor People

Poor people are easier to steal from. It is something of a vicious cycle, poverty encouraging thievery, thievery easy to pull off on the poor, stealing from the poor leading to poverty. Only because someone was talking about it above, it's not the dude climbing through the window at night who is the thief, well he is, but the real thieves are the wall street barons draining retirement funds legally, hedge funds that only pay 17% tax while median income pays 22% or so, the white collar fucks who use loopholes to rip off the average family, not pay taxes, do insider trading, etc. They're the thieves. I'd totally track those douches down and rob them blind if I was impoverished. I'd be like a ghetto Robin Hood. Side: Poor People
