Interesting. Then they'll stop investigating other vehicle theft, too, right?
Also, if you are going to "decriminalize" crimes like that, then at least "decriminalize" actions taken by people to prevent or recover their stolen property.
I mean, if you're stealing it back, it's also decriminalized?
It's rare to see the law work in the victim's favour, so stealing back your own bike would probably land you in jail (in North America, at least).
...but wait at least two hours first.
