    You poor lightweight. Or, perhaps you suffer essentially the same mindset as a dhimmi toward Islam, except that you cringe toward "secularism."

          My night has been fun so far. A routine trip to the grocery store ended up with me having to restrain a rather aggressive shoplifter until the police arrived. He refused to return the items and kept trying to make his way to the exit. All I wanted was a can of tomaotes and some penne pasta. Why do people feel entitled to swipe stuff? The guy was better dressed than I was. If there's one thing in this world that irks me to no end, it's theft.

          Good for you, John, but from what I know of you, I would've expected no less.

            So, it's self-evident that "theft" is "wrong." Or is it that the "wrongness" of "theft" becomes self-evident when it involves violence? Yet, one cannot help but notice that it appears (based on the limited info given) that the violence was instigated by those seeking to impose their "morality" upon a free-thinker.

            Well done there Troy, you can read but it is evident you don't comprehend the words you read.

            The new name for the criminal act of aggravated theft? Do you class yourself as "free-thinking"?

                  Sometimes the audacity of people just amazes me. The owners were willing to just have their stuff back and ask him to leave. But I guess that was too difficult somehow.

                    Great stuff. I doubt if I could handle that. No side effects, I trust?

                    No, it all resolved rather calmly in the end but for a few minutes I thought he was going to hit the wife. Thankfully, he didn't.
