What do you all think of thieves?

BlueOval97 · 11-03-2007, 10:21 AM

Yesterday while i was at work someone stole my tail light covers off of my Explorer. What a load of crap. Dont people have anything else to do then steal stuff that people work for? They were only $50, but $50 is $50. i was just wondering your alls opinions on things like this.

Wuzza Bear · 11-03-2007, 01:07 PM

People steal anything these days, its pathetic.

ComeFlyWithMe · 11-03-2007, 05:35 PM

8th grade we were robbed over $15,000 of electronics and jewelry while we were in N.C., so yeah I hate and know all about thieves.

TOMCAT06 · 11-03-2007, 05:50 PM

Thats so stupid man, I wish we could find out who stole them and giv'em a good ol a$$ woopen!

**TidesHoss32** · 11-03-2007, 05:59 PM

I hate thieves too...I hate a thief that steals stuff off of you, so he/she can pawn it off and buy drugs, or a thief that steals just because he/she is a lazy piece of garbage that wont work to buy their own.........HOWEVER..(scenario)..if I lose my job. I have a family. Im running our of money and options. And it comes down to my family starving or me stealing some groceries from the grocery store, I'll steal if it is my very last option. Ive never stolen anything in my entire life, because I havent had too. But if that one, and only that one scenario comes up, I can sympathize..on the other hand, if anybody wants to break into my house to steal anything I have, you'd better get to that gun under my pillow before I do, because I got 8 rounds thatll have their names written all over them, lol..

What about if someone steals your life, or health, or physical abilities? It's just people playing God, and thinking that everything's theirs, it's the story of life.

Same thing happened to me. We had to order some more. Hopefully these won't get stolen too. Everytime I go somewhere now I will have to put them in the trunk.

I can't stand a thief? Most of them break in houses or cars and steal to get stuff to sell so they can buy drugs. That's 95% of the problem...drug heads. Most of them wouldn't work if you paid them $50 a hour to pick up trash out of a ditch line. And most of them also draws some kind of government checks. So, they draw entitlement checks paid for by your hard working citizens tax money, and while you're at work trying to earn money and paying taxes for their first of the month checks, they're scoping your house out and waiting for you to leave so they can steal your hard earned property. A few of the more enterprising ones grow a little marijuana on the side to supplement their theft money and welfare checks. It's disgusting.:redboxer:

And the worst part of it is the law and the justice system usually just slaps them on the wrist. Pay a monthly restitution, which you'll have to struggle to get. By the time you're through wooling them around in court, you feel like the criminal and they're the victim.

There's two things I can't stand in life.....A liar and a thief! It's a shame people are to lazy to get out and make their own money so they steal the things other people work hard for.....

GRIZZ · 11-05-2007, 01:57 AM

Like football frenzy said, I also hate a liar, a cheat, and a dang theif. People are lazy as heck these days and want things handed to them instead of going out and earning it. If they do take something and you confront them about it, 9 times out of 10 they'll say they don't know what you are talking about and the other 1/10 time they'll say they found it. Liars, cheats, and theives should be left out in the Sahara.

**Playboy5** · 11-05-2007, 07:31 AM

Like TH32 mentioned..If it is food and for there family and they aren't spending there other money elsewhere like such on drugs and whatnot, then I feel for them. I believe that if they steal a shirt or whatever it is and for whatever other reason that we began to chop a finger off. And if they keep stealing and we keep on with this process than pretty soon..They won't have anymore fingers to steal..SEE MY POINT, LOL!! I AM ALL FOR IT!

Could you explain this in a little more detail, I'm interested.

For the record, I also hate a thief.

Watchful Eye · 11-05-2007, 11:28 AM

The probelm today is that nobody is held accountable for their actions. If they had gottn caught stealing your property then they would have said, "It's the drugs, I stole it to get money for drugs man....whine, whine, whine!" It was their choice to do the drug the first time. They chose to do it and now they're stealing to do more. Why not just be held accountable for their actions? That's why people keep stealing, we don't penalize them for stealing we help them get off drugs. ****************, if you get caught stealing just tell 'em your on drugs.......you'll get a cookie and go on home!

Recently, sopmeone stole all of my guns, fishing equipment archery equipment. They left one decent bow that I had stripped down, but now it is all I have to hunt with.

I recently read an article in the paper where a guy was stealing the hubcaps from a car. The thief didn't realize that the owner was in the car and the owner didn't see the thief. The driver backed up running over the thief's hand.
The thief sued and was awarded $12,000 plus medical expenses!

I used to work for a hospital doing valet service, one of the low lifes who was working there who claimed to be a preist and devout christian was cought on camera stealing center caps from a lincoln town car identical to his although his lacked these same center caps. Needless to say he was immediatly fired and didn't get to keep the centercaps. He was pathetic.

The same article had another story where a guy was robbing a house while the family was on vacation. He tried to leave through the garage but the door opener wouldn't work. He had closed the house door behind him and it locked and he was unable to get out. He stayed there for a week living on a case of pepsi he found and a large bag of dry dogfood. He sued the homeowners for the stress he went through and collected $84,000!

**Redneck** · 11-07-2007, 01:43 AM

I have been thinkin about this for a couple days of all the things that were stole off me when I was at Pikeville College.

My lucky Notre Dame hat
The new ND hat I bought after my lucky one was stole
ND Football t-shirt
2003 15th Region basketball tourney t-shirt
2001 Paintsville Football Region 4 Champs t-shirt
Numerous Under Armour gear (wrist bands, compression shorts and cut-off tee)
and some other clothes

My buddy had his PS2 (had Madden in it) and controllers stole.

Yeah I hate a thief.

Whoever was involved with awarding the thief that money should be smacked HARD. The judge on that case should lose his job.

Thieves should be hung by there feet and get beaten with baseball bats.

Speaking of baseball, The Big Sandy Cal Ripken Baseball League in Pikeville had someone break into their consession stand (after the season) and steal: The popcorn machine, nacho cheese machine, dip and dots, and an electric food warmer.... If anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated. How low does someone have to be to steal from kids!!!
