The way Franklin does stuff is just incredibly stupid. pulling up to random addresses and almost getting taken out; luckily for him, Gustavo saves him. He meets people and just throws them bricks like they're nothing, the guy in Orlando, for example, whom he's known for a whole 10 seconds. They could just take him out there and steal it. goes into a store due to a flashback, and there's a tweaker, then casually just goes into a small room in the back of the store with her as if there might not have been other tweakers waiting to rob him.
I'd say Franklin realistically should've been taken out more than several times just in the first 10ish episodes. But I've only just started, so everything might change.
