Legal White Male Steals From Me & Walks

[VOR]

Even if it was a single stick of Bazooka Bubble Gum, you should prosecute. Theft is theft.

This post is not about his store having a shoplifter.  It's a leftist nutjob's attempt to somehow justify illegals coming into our country.  You have to understand RPM's insane view on things to grasp this.
 Since a white guy doesn't go to jail for shoplifting, hispanic people should be allowed to cross the border and live here, all the while soaking up resources that should go to legal citizens.  

Heck, maybe if the illegals weren't sucking us dry, we'd have enough money to get the white shoplifter into rehab and get him on the road to recovery. Ohhhh...  what a novel   help those who are actually citizens.

Is there a gas leak in here?

I think Chairboy is one of the few that gets it. The guy is a thief, plain and simple. He is a repeat offender (stole from me and then my compeditor) and he doesn't go to jail. $50 bucks from me, $50 bucks from the store across town, $50 from each of the stores in the next town and so on...

I see how you find it cute that a thief can steal and get away with it. Somewhere along the way the meaning of "conservative" and "liberal" got switched. You guys are about as liberal as it gets when you want to support theft over working for a living. That's the ultimate welfare.

The government also makes money from this guy stealing when he pays his ticket. Theif makes money, government makes money, honest business loses money. That's OK, we'll just raise the price of all the goods to cover our losses. Trust me, my boss won't be the one that loses money, he'll take it out on the consumer.

Mav, trust me if I had seen the guy, I would have made a "citizens arrest" and I would have sworn he was resisting.

VOR, I did want to procecute. All the police did was write him a ticket and let him go.

Steve, you haven't got a clue what my view is on immigration. You only have some tinfoil hat delusion of what you think my views are.

What a fine example of a cogent, incisive post.  wtg Steve.

i don't understand.  you have insurance that covers pilferage/theft?  you actually make an insurance claim for a theft under $50???  I never heard of that, although i admit i know very little about retail business.  if you actually do make a claim for such a small amount, i would assume you are reimbursed, aren't you?  would you also claim this loss on your tax return as well?

Perhaps I should not have said it was for insurance. I have to file a police report for any theft. If it's large enough to claim on insurance we will, otherwise it's written off taxes as shrinkage.

[Gunthr]

that makes more sense, rpm.  i know pilferage is part of the cost of doing business - and we all pay for it - except for the occasional Bazooka Bubble Gum

Criminal court system is not set up for you to recover your financial loss in this type of situation. That is what civil court system is for & I am pretty sure you have that option if you are so inclined.

I beg to differ, i had a kenworth truck and someone broke out most of the windows when it was parked overnite at a friends truckstop.(worked as mechanic there) and one of the waitresses seen who did it and told me the next day.

i contacted the police and they talked to her then confronted the person who admitted he did it (ex wifes BF) he was cited and went to criminal court, the court gave him 45 days in jail and made him pay resitution which he paid in full, $742 worth of glass

I wasn't saying you did the wrong thing, RPM. I was saying you did the right thing. The city dropped the ball after you tossed it right into their jersey numbers.

RPM  why start a thread titled ...  Legal White Male Steals From Me & Walks, may i ask what your ethnic background is ?

Sounds alittle racial to me,  Illegals are just that illegally in this counrty and are a great cause of our economic problems as well as the employers who hire them knowing they are.

I dont care what color you are or race, if you are legally entilted to live here then you have all the legal entitlements granted under our constitution, if your illegally here you have no rights under our constitution period.

In short stealing is stealing and i hope you get some compensation and the perp gets whats comming to him, illegal or legal makes no difference

There are scumbags of all races.  The illegal aliens (every one of them) have already shown their contempt for laws, therefore 100% of illegals are scumbags.  Just by being here they demonstrate the ability and willingness to break at least 4 of our laws before we move into the welfare fraud and identity theft realm.  What percentage of "legal, whites" steal from you?

Just threw out the headline to remind you that it's not just the illegal aliens that are breaking the law and getting away with it. That is a whole 'nother subject...

Try reading the very first line I wrote. Does it matter what race I am? Do you belong to a secret club where it does?


VOR, sorry. I missread your post.

Most of the large thefts we have are by "legal, whites". Most of the petty theft (<$10)is hispanic.

[Gunthr]

rpm, how in the heck do you know that mostly hispanics are stealing the items under $10?  do you survey the thieves as they leave the store ???(presumablely with burritos and nachos stuffed in their pockets?)  i hope you aren't making a racist assumption here

A cite is equal to a "feild booking", this person will have a misd arrest on their record and will go to court to face the exact same charges as if he'd been arrested. Most police Depts don't have the time / resources to take every $50 criminal to a jail cell.

Even if you had made a citizens arrest, the dude would probably still been given a cite.

If you're adamant about it, call the dept and ask for the detective handling the case and be sure to let him/her know you absolutely demand prosecution.  Find out who the city attorney / DDA will be and call him / her too... these people work for you

If you don't call, this case will be one of a dozen or so manila folders on the dets desk the s/he'll shuffle out the door without a 2nd thought... letting him / her know you really care might motivate the Det to do some follow up.
