So then since you're stealing, it's okay to steal from you?

I really would tell you but its not good to say that kind of stuff over the internet..
I am being completely honest though - I tried out several programs before I found exactly what I needed.

Its okay to steal the things THAT I STOLE, yes
Does that make a little more sense..?

Ah, ok, self-justification. So now, since you stole, making you a bad person (by your definition), I can steal that same program from you and it's okay?Its okay to steal the things THAT I STOLE, yes
Does that make a little more sense..?

Lol I read it.. I'm not sure how I would feel about stealing from Walmart. As a whole, they're insanely rich, of course, but they made it to that point fair and square and their prices are great. The most I would probably steal from Walmart would be like a pack of gum, but probably not.

But they didn't notice when I stole all of the things I've stolen. I wanted some pens, and my mom only gave me $2 each day for lunch. (this was in high school before I had a job) So I just stole them... Walmart didn't care, and I really liked those pens.

Yeah, I just feel like we think too much about it's 'just us.' But the problem is, everyone is thinking it's 'just us' wanting to steal. And it's actually tons of people doing it. It doesn't affect the corporation as whole, sure, but this minor things trickle down all the way to the cashiers pay, and they don't deserve that :/

The only circumstance where I can understand why people steal, is when they steal food: the people are dirt-poor, homeless and starving, with no prospect of jobs or any future, and no social welfare that can assist them. When stealing food is matter of survival, I can understand this circumstance, even though it is wrong to steal.

The cashiers steal too... It's all good. Maybe if we were communists we wouldn't have to worry about that.

I stole marbles from my dad too. He had tons of them, so I took some that I thought were pretty. He never noticed, and I guess it doesn't matter anymore anyway, because he's not here. Maybe I'll decorate his grave with the marbles I stole from him.

Yuckk lol - I think everyone should be able to do whatever the hell they want as long as they don't hurt other people.. And no one deserves any special priveledges or anything. Everyone takes care of themself and they want to help others, good for them. (Like no financial support of any kind)

Quick summary doesn't work, and it's over an hour long. Maybe you can watch it online, but that's the main website and it's a DVD, so I don't think they'd host it.
