Shoplifting...

Small crimes lead to bigger crimes, bloody serves her right and imho she got off lightly, perhaps she has learnt her lesson and will grow up and act responsibly and with repsect for others property.....somehowe i doubt it though.

Yep one week i downloaded a song the next i was hacking limbs off pensioners.
 
Wow, way to mock what is actually a proper crime, i hope you guys arent on the receiving end of a burglary, or mugging which is potentially the next step on from shoplifting. People dont just start at bank robberies, they almost always start on petty crimes and work up - that a proven fact.

Your tone in the previous tone insisted she would be up to it again sometime soon, if not shoplifting then something more seriously. Because ALL petty criminals become big time criminals? Is that what you're trying to say?

We weren't mocking the crime, we were mocking your claims

SHE WILL COMMIT CRIME AGAIN.

Maybe she's just a moron, and will lead a happy life crime free here on after...

how do you or I know any different?

we don't, so you can say you know it is fact all day if you like doesn't make you right.

she sounds a bit criminally inept to me.

There is no maybe, she IS a moron on two counts, firstly shoplifting, secondly getting caught.

Most criminals do go on to reoffend, and crimes do escalate from petty theft like this into more serious crimes, thats proven fact.

Its unlikely this is her first attempt, i dont have any evidence to back this up but she is clearly a blithering halfwit.
 
I managed to buy a pack of razor blades with the plastic box still around them. Damn those boxes are hard to remove.

I've also found 10 un-used sticky back security tags before. Which immediately went underneath the front cross-bar of 10 trolleys.

I used to work at Sainsbury's and there were regularly "spare" security stickers laying around. We would have course put them to good use. Like hiding them inside a colleague's fleece or jumper. :D

It is actually a great way to stop people leaving half their uniform on your department, as they tend to keep an eye on their things in case they have another embarrassing moment! :p

Really??...i mean i didnt turn to a life of crime seeing as i was caught shoplifting when i was a youngster...i must have been about 14 or 15 when i was caught...sure i got taken to the police station where i was cautioned with my dad by my side but instead of turning to a life of crime i ended up learning a very valuable lesson...crime doesnt pay....but hey carry on with your stupid generalisations though.
 
It is a fact, look it up.

There are loads of facts out there about reoffending, and also about how criminals start on petty crimes and work their way up - its FACT :rolleyes:
 
Look it up where exactly? I love all this argument round here these days, I say FACT so you disprove. gawd.

The kid who steals a sweet - guaranteed certainty to become a criminal later in life?

you simply can't say things like that.

woman in OP as example, if she has managed her whole life without crime then some reason puts a tagged item in her bag and walks out... more mental health than potential criminal imo.

:rolleyes:
 
Earlier I was in Sainsburys when really hungover/still a bit drunk and was using the self scanners. I had a courgette but forgot the name of it and couldnt find a picture of it in the list of stuff. I put it through as brocolli instead because it was easer making my mates (who were also still a bit drunk) burst out laughing.

Does that count as shoplifting?

if courgette > brocolli in value then yes.

you best watch your criminal impulses from now on.
