That's pretty smart until you learn that "the thief sells"
Or that "the drunkard urinates on books for fun"
Yeah or what happens when it rains? Or someone drops a book into what appears to be an upper gutter running through the middle of the street?
The image is incredibly misleading. Its an indoor Bazar which is locked at night.
Is the gutter locked at night? Also there appears to be a questionably secured window unit air conditioner. Which in the worst case might fall onto a gentle reader. But more likely condensation would drip onto the stack of books below.
Probably not a lot of drunkards where all alcohol is illegal.
it which universe is crime illegal but you don't have a system to catch and punish people because you expect people to be flawless or an agent of circumstance?
Or even "the bored shithead sets fire to things"
In this case it would be they scan it for the Amazon price list and take anything that has a positive rating.
