Stealing.

There's a big difference, i think everyone should steal from big corporations, why not? there rich as shit me stealing a bag of chips is not going to bankrupt them. But stealing shit from someones car is a dick move, unless they are rich and have lots, then go right ahead steal away.

Problem is, those "corporations" are using people like us to keep the money flowing. The corporations don't just open a store and send the products to the store owner for free. The people opening up those franchises pay for it all. So if they lose out on merch because you stole it, you might as well be stealing it out of a employees pocket. And those franchise businesses are not cheap. For a MacDonalds franchise to be opened, the owner has to dump some unreal $10 million into the McDonalds corporation in order to own rights to all merch and to open up a storefront. From there, they also pay for all the product, at a wholesale discount so that both McDonalds and the store owner makes money. But the problem is, they dumped a large sum of money into it, and it takes at least ten years to make all that money back before they actually make a profit.


You kids got a lot to learn about business, haha.

First off, to Big L, there is no justification to stealing at all, its not like i have never stolen, but with a guilty concious of doing so.
Second, agreed with Josh. There is so much difficulty to getting things to work in a corporation, and think if everyone pictured stealing from corporations and businesses as acceptable...they would go bankrupt. One person stealing wont hurt anyone, but its not like your not the only person who steals in this world.

I hear you, Matt. I have stolen once in my life and I felt terrible. So terrible, that I in fact snuck what I stole back in and put it where I found it. Thankfully he didn't notice. It was a kid that lived across the street from my grandparents. I was only like 7. And it wasn't a big item, just a Hot Wheels toy car, haha. But still, I haven't stole since. And the way I look at it. If I felt guilty for stealing a $2 Hot Wheels toy car, that pretty much tells you I would never steal anything of importance, haha.

One time i was at the skatepark and this kid tryed something and stacked and this kid ran in grabbed his scooter and ran. The kid was actually pretty good but never rode again because he couldn't afford a new scooter.

Big L you're such a fucking idiot, so is everyone who says shit like "stealing is okay if..." because NO stealing is acceptable.
 
i dont steal eather but i hate going into stores because just being a skater type everyone eyes the shit out of me like im doing somthing wong and i always feel guilty even if i did nothing. i have got my camera my trypod my scooter my girlfriend my bike and a lot more things ..i hate living in a ghetto town.
 
the funny thing is all the claims about " i used to steal or I do steal things from stores, but not from people," (basically is what the jist of that is) is that the people who run the store bought those items, and those items are theirs.

and the big l thing that JDben commented on. Yeah, of course, why not take from people because they are successful, and you are a worthless piece of shit that hasn't amounted to anything. All this "BUt iTS so EXPenSIVe"... the facts are this.

If you want a drink, find a cup, put it under your faucet, pay 3 cents. Hungry? You don't need junk food from a store.

Think your stealing from the corporation? The company has already made money by selling it to the store. You aint stealing shit from the corporation, your stealing from the store owner that bought those things. Unless you sneak in to the factory and steal directly from it, that is the only exception. Most expensive or overpriced ----- you don't need.

People are rich? They have an unfair advantage because they have connections? You just don't have the ability to achieve that? Theres been loads of stories where people went from nothing to everything even without an education....
