They shouldn’t be. If the police can’t effectively detour crime, we shouldn’t have to rely on the 2nd amendment to protect our stuff - excuse me, defend ourselves.
You’re gonna wanna hit up YouTube or something because there’s some really good examples of and explanation for why vibratin booby trapping is really bad.
And if someone picks it up in good faith? Trapping something that is locked away and could only be a theft attempt is one thing, but this is a cooler sitting out in the open. There are plenty of reasons a well-meaning person might pick it up.
This isn’t reasonable theft detterent, this is sadism.
Don’t take shit that isn’t yours and you’ll never have to deal with this.
Booby traps are illegal dude

Honestly I can’t think of a legitimate scenario where someone who didn’t know it was rigged would be touching it.
If I were to do this I’d make everyone I’m with very aware of it. Unless there’s gonna be kids around I don’t see how it’s an issue.
Another commenter already gave a list of examples. In addition to those, it’s also a possibility that you or someone with you simply forgets.
If you still think it’s a good idea, then please offer my condolences to anyone who accepts an invitation to hang out on your boat.
