Mixed Messages

Watching the news the other night something struck me as odd.
A man fell asleep in his lounge only to wake to find someone in his house. They ran, he followed and got hit over the head when he tried to stop them stealing his car. The police response to this is 'don't confront leave it to us'. Two stories later they were reporting on the police raising awareness on campus and the message there was 'the person mostly responsible for your own safety is you'.
Hmmmmm.
So which is it? If you're outdoors then you're responsible for your own safety but if you're at home then leave it to someone else?
