I therfore have little pity for people such as this.

And it's all okay because the thief got killed. Yeah, let's all have good laugh at that.

He achieved this through an act of stupidity so monumental as to earn him a darwin award as long as he has not so far reproduced. Therefore, amusing.

Had it been an accident which could not have been avoided, or had his death not occurred in the pursuit of nefarious goals, then the response in the forum would have been different.

That "entity" has robbed more people, of more value than he was attempting to do, I don't see anyone hoping for their deaths'. I am not the one who was assuming he was a traveller, it was other posters on here who were quite happy to make that assumption. Since when has the death of a thief ever been a just punishment?
