What kills me about that, Berka... is that you know they put that one up because some dumbass actually tried it. Like warning labels on some products. xD Gawd. (Just like there is an actual warning label on some chainsaws that says "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals.")
"Steve, the chainsaw just won't turn off!"
"Have no fear, Frank. There's no chain that can stop my iron rod!"
And so ended the day where Steve was given a Darwin award.
Whaaaaaaaaaaat? Criminals that don't respect the law? Oh, my God... say it ain't so! xD Whatever is this world coming to?
You guys are misunderstanding the real point. Criminals don't want to be caught, and each criminal is willing to take a different degree of risk to accomplish what they want to do. It's not like all criminals capable of molestation wake up and are like "Today is the day I molest someone, NO MATTER THE RISK OR COSTS! THE TIME HAS COME AND SO WILL I!"
There's usually a pretty high chance they'll be seen entering the bathroom, or be seen while in the bathroom. Not being allowed in there means people will be cautious of them and will likely report them. New rules would dictate being cautious of them would make you a bigot, and that you'd just either ignore them or leave if you feel unsafe. The new opportunity available will undeniably increase the chances of something happening.
There's also different degrees of criminals. Not everyone trying to sneak into a bathroom wants to molest someone. Some will be trying to spy on those in there, or maybe they just really like to feel used toilets or something... Point is, not all crimes that could be committed are blatant, and going "Access to the room is not going to stop violent rapists!" is just a way to underplay any other risk that there may be.
