Somehow a crime without sensible motivation seems worse than a crime with a 'good' explanation -- greed, passion, anger, whatever. There is some basis for this sense.
A crime with a reason seems to be more likely to be avoidable. Hide your wallet, try not to anger neighbors and the like, and you will not be a victim of crime.
The recent story, below, of rock throwing is the just the type of mindless offence that scares and baffles.
