I don't know if steal is the right word but Hobbes is generally considered the first to think of the state of nature theory!. Locke's theory of the state of nature is different than Hobbes but he clearly took the concept from Hobbes!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If people used lockes, not toy tigers would ever get stolen!.!.!.
Oh, wait, you're not talking about Calvin and Hobbes, are you!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
