people scratch out a hard life so any attempt to steal the little crumbs is met with extreme violence . My dad told me back in the day if a thief felt he was gonna get caught he'd lock himself in somewhere and only come out when the police came,better a severe beating than a certain death. There's a legend about one of my great uncles that he got a burglar in the house and made him wash the whole family's clothes,lol.Probably bullshit but a great story.
