Insurance sucks sometimes. It goes up with the least little claim and more than one can cause the policy to be cancelled or nonrenewed. I'm sure your dad understood why Marty stayed and probably would have done the same thing himself had the positions been reversed.

I don't get your dad sometimes.....I mean, wasn't it obvious why Marty was staying? A little appreciation for intention, for goodness sakes! Whatever, different strokes..... Thieves are slime.....I'm glad they didn't come back a second time and it sounds like you haven't had any other issues like that?

I expect your Dad has secured that machine or lets say the replacement pretty throughly.
At least they are not like a chap I know thieves stole the wheels off his trailer.
They could not take the trailer as there was a chain secured. They came back a few weeks later cut through the chain and obviously replaced the wheels and then took the trailer.

People often see different reasons behind the options
and it seems to me, Marty was trying to express his concern and take some action to show it, feeling that action expresses more than words can. He was probably not unaware he was not putting his own safety first. I doff my hat to him for his sensibilities!

I agree with you on both, the criminals aren't coming back and that Marty probably
shouldn't have been there.

Indeed - that's a bad surprise! And I agree with you - it's not likely those gus would show up a second time! Others might, though, and I hope there are better security measures in place...
