    Oh, FK yeah.  

    I think the person would be stoned and burned at the stake too.  Depending on what state he was in.   Or whipped.  Or scalped.  You know.

    Yeah some people have a lot of treasured stuff stored on their phones. But people are sometimes careless and make their phones easy to steal.

    And insuring them costs a fortune to make matters worse.  I have insurance, but I would HATE it if I lost my phone. NOOOOOOOOO GODDDD

    I wonder how people charged their phone if there was no electricity back then.

    It should be the case now. :)

    But sadly, in these times of bleeding heart political correctness, we can’t even punch the thief in his face.
