B&E vs burglaring...

I recall from my intro to law class that there is a distinction between Robbery and burglary - one entails just walking into a house and stealing, and the other entails breaking into a house and stealing. I believe the coverage in various homeowners insurance make that same distinction, and if you remove certain coverage, damages are much lower -

Need to go back to law school and study the basics. A robbery takes place when stealing involves physical force or fear. Burglary occurs when something is stolen without physical force or fear. You can walk into an unlocked house or break a windows to get in and it is still burglary. When you threaten or use physical harm, you are robbing.

Take for example...a bank "Robber". He didn't break into the bank to steal...he used physical threats to steal the money.

Now...back to topic....I'm going to burgle mobi to my heart's content.
