The mugger had many talents and a bright future to look forward to. Now, because the man had to go and press charges, he'll have to go to jail. What a waste!

Doesn't capture the Puritanism at play where society tells the mugging target that they should only be giving money to their owner or future owner. The world's religion entrench this ownership of women in our culture.
