Damn dude that is quite the story. Am I the only person who thinks its fine to steal from stores and big businesses?

The millionaire business owner is out .001% more profit, like he doesn't already have enough. I say good for you OP for getting away.



Another sad example of a human being.

Do you think the store owner/s just absorb that loss? No swifty, the end result is higher prices for those of us who aren't scumbags.

Do the rest of us a favor. Stop breathing. Permanently.

I got caught once in High School, sort of - they saw me reach into my pocket but I was just grabbing my phone, and they assumed I stuffed something in there, which I did, but I just convinced them it was my phone, I was ready to run though, :smile: I compare it to getting caught with drugs while getting pulled over for speeding.

And wow you had to fight hard, good thing you got away or you'd be pinned with all kinds of other charges on top of the shoplifting.

Actually, most large companies shrink directly effects employee's quarterly bonuses. So maybe do some reading before you post some "facts" please.

Take your own advice numbnuts. It's clear you have never been a business owner.

Even if it was just some companies, that still means some do raise their prices.

Stop breathing soon please. Before you pass on you genes.

:facepalm:

It's clear you have never owned a retail company that employs over 1000 employee's or ever worked for one.

My mother has owned a business since before I was born, rather small one, but the knowledge required to run one was instilled in my head from a very young age.

Theifs are the last thing bringing up anyone's prices, large corporations get tax write offs for shrink/lost merchandise I do so believe. 

Do me a favor, and find something else to say other than asking me to stop breathing, so I cannot reproduce, that's kind of silly. You seem like a right wing gun loving fool, go slap another NRA sticker on the back of your truck for me.

The only way that stolen items would bring up the price would be if more items were being stolen than bought, and I doubt that is happening. btw, the last time I stole anything I was 7 or 8 years old and it cost $2 and I got caught. THe fear I felt at that time has been enough to turn me off from stealing forever.

All I ever wanted was to be free,

and in the end that's how it turned out to be...

I was just surprised they gave chase at all..

i never considered the knife..and i'm just grateful i've done all the training, not arrogant, I'm lucky as hell i got away they pinned me pretty good but I was determined. once he started trying to choke me out I knew it was me or him and i had the knife on me n wasn't about to go to jail for fucking 10$ and a b-knife..it was quite a fucking struggle..i can still straighten up though

Dumbest thing you've ever heard huh.

A quick google search added several more companies to my list of ones that I already knew to be doing this.

Wal-Mart
Sears
Circuit City did.
Blockbuster
Hollywood Video / Movie Gallery
Best Buy
Target

Just to name a few.

It's a shame your mother didn't teach you spelling, proper sentence structure, or logic to go along with that knowledge to run a business.  The efficacy of which I truly doubt.

Respect for bein' properly able to defend yourself. I always wonder how I'd fare in a similar situation, and I have to assume that the answer would be "not very well."

Oh no The Grammar Police have arrived now.

Still no logic coming out of anyone on how theft drives consumer prices up in a retail store.

I speak in thoughts, separated by empty lines on the internet, who the fuck cares to make complete sentences.

And what did I misspell thieves? I'm ripping the bong and on 40 mg of oxy, pretty good excuse for not writing as if it's being watched for spelling and grammatical errors.

I think that when people fail to win their side of the argument, they have to resort to bashing other things, to make up for it.

I'm not really paying attention, so I don't know who is right, I'm just speculating :smile:

I figure we are all stolen from on the daily. Rampant spending, shady business practices. My dad lost all his 401k in the crash, no retirement in sight.

Yes, I'm a thief - really, quite a petty one. If the world were so much better with the couple of bargain bin items I stole, and not the several trillion your bankers spend out of your future pockets, well yes, I suppose I'm still the supremely surpassing and overshadowing thief/scumbag.

You fail to understand... There is no BIG thief and LITTLE thief. There are only THIEVES, and it's not the action of stealing, it's the mindset that you can take something that isn't yours and somehow justify it.

It's like people who justify "little lies". A lie is a lie, no matter the size. Some of us understand how honor and dignity work... You don't.

:thumbup:

Really, it was just a scuffle but I held no animosity or real intention of ever hitting them..which was weird I may as well have but they never hit me so I figured why raise it that one level and get this guy seething over me..I'll just see if more effort will deter him..and it did.

They had me pinned really well twice though - but I do a lot of groundwork with capoeira so I was able to kind of be really resilient and keep exploding from underneath the two ofem..felt like neo in the smithpile from 2nd matrix.
