How am I suppose to know that this thief’s intentions were to only rob me and not cause physical harm?
A thief breaks into you home ... children
There are numerous break-ins in Puna. Almost none, possibly none, involve the violence you describe. It's a fear based on an infinitesimally small number of incidents (in comparison to the greater number of total break-ins), and when they do occur, almost always take place thousands of miles away from Puna.
You are far more likely to get injured in the way you describe by driving a car. Would you consider it common sense to protect yourself from the greater risk of transporting yourself in a car, by giving up driving?
