I personally find the comments section to be more fun than the articles most of the time.

If I'm recalling FBI crime stats correctly, something like 80-85% of residential break-ins are forced entry, and about 10% are entry through an unsecured door or window. That leaves a small-but-not-insignificant percentage of residential burglaries committed by surreptitious/covert means, including lock picking.
I'm 100% on board with the assertion that lockpicking is an extremely unusual MO for a burglar, but it's far from unheard of.

He's no locksmith and has never claimed to be, as far as I know. Perhaps I'm too much of a noob to understand, but your criticism of him and his picking know-how (or lack thereof) seems harsh to me. If he's such a "bozo", then you must warn his viewers before they buy into his misinformation
