> Simply buy a fleet of bikes, fit trackers and motion alarms to each Do that - and you'll be accused in "using the police to disproportionally punish the poor instead of working on the crimes that actually matter and helping the communities to get out of the vicious poverty cycle" Sarcasm aside, this has some rationale: say you caught a bike thief. What you gonna do next? Fine him? He likely has no money. Put him into prison? Will cause more problems down the road. Whipping his ass in Trafalgar Square would be a good option, but is highly unlikely to ever happen...
