Well arent you just the mature little individual!
I do know one thing for certain... Your a major hypocrite! You come into this thread and get all over my A$$ for starting a thread to bash someone, yet you went and did the exact same thing... http://realfierotech.com/ph...iewtopic.php?t=15601
I received a phone call today to tell me to take a loot at RFT. What do I find? A thread you started about me using my name and a link to this thread! The real difference here is... I used a quote button to quote someones "OWN" post, that they made "here", in public for all to see! You on the other hand, being the cowardly little pansey, started a thread about "me"(on another forum), "speculating" that my thread "here", stems from my past experience with a vendor. That vendor is being delt with accordingly and 'legally". Just like you told me...

Practice what you preach!
You are defending a thief's actions and that makes you, morally, no better than a thief yourself.
You are saying that because the parts are small, and minor, that it's OK to just take them. In essence you are saying that, taking a $0.50 candybar from a gas station is OK. The law seems to not think so. It doesn't matter if you take a candybar or a pair of jeans, you still get the same punishment, by law. Theft is wrong and illegal no matter what you steal.
As for why I don't call out speeders... Speeding will get you a ticket, theft will get you thrown in jail! There have been numerous threads here about people drag racing (on public streets) and lots of people, including myself, have chimed in and gave the person sh!t about it.
Grow up and quit being a trolling hypocrite!
Edit to add...If a person is stupid enough to post, in a open public forum, a statement or video of themselves commiting a crime, then they deserve the bashing they get!
Another edit to add...Supplied to me, by PM, from a fellow thief hater...
Notice I didn't give the persons name? Why not? Because they sent me "private" PM instead of posting it, themselves, for "everyone" to see![This message has been edited by JimmyS (edited 09-22-2008).]

What I did, here, is not illegal! I didn't defame his character! HE DID IT HIMSELF! If you pull ur head out of your A$$, long enough to take a breath of fresh air, you would see that. I am on the chopping block and you are judging me!
The difference here is..you don't know for certain if, when, where or how, I have broken any laws. You know why that is? Cause "if" I were to do something illegal, I have more common sense than to type out or video tape, the crime, and then post it on a open public forum!
I am amazed at how thick headed some people can be! And to think...this is the future of our country. A bunch of thick heads and thieves.[This message has been edited by JimmyS (edited 09-22-2008).]

Consequences of Shoplifting
The consequences of shoplifting are injurious to virtually everyone in society. The consequences of shoplifting effect business owners and employees, business patrons, and teenagers in an unfavorable way.
The consequences of shoplifting cause one third of all new businesses to fail. Businesses lose sixteen billion dollars annually in lost revenue as a result of shoplifting. In addition to lost profits, the consequences of shoplifting also force businesses to raise prices and take other costly preventative measures to reduce their vulnerability to shoplifting.
Effect on Customers
Customers and teenagers (who may also be law abiding customers) may also suffer the deleterious consequences of shoplifting. Customers often have to suffer the consequences of shoplifting by paying more for purchased items. The average family in America spends $300 every year in order to subsidize the cost of what shoplifters steal.
Law abiding teenagers may also unjustly suffer the consequences of shoplifting. Teens commit fifty percent of all shoplifting offenses. Because of this high percentage, stores may discriminate against teenagers when they enter a store, even if they have no intention of shoplifting.
Business Consequences
The business consequences of shoplifting often result in security measures such as backpack or bag check in rules, security cameras and/or guards, special security systems, and other warning or alarm protections, all of which cost time and money to implement.
Most businesses will prosecute shoplifters to the full extent of the law. Every state has implemented their own laws governing shoplifting crimes. Most jurisdictions define shoplifting as the unlawful attainment of merchandise from a place of business by way of stealing these goods or by intentionally paying less for them.
Shoplifting can involve concealing, moving or modifying items, changing price tags, removing shopping carts and similar items from a store location, refund fraud, and the intentional use of illegitimate forms of payment.
Legal Consequences
The legal consequences of shoplifting depend on a number of circumstances. The consequences for shoplifting are harsher for offenders who steal merchandise with a relatively high total value and for those who have a previous history of shoplifting.
When the value of stolen goods doesn’t exceed $500 or so, the courts will generally charge the offender with a petty crime misdemeanor. In some cases, a first time offense may be reduced to a disorderly conduct infraction.
In cases of multiple offenses and larger amounts/value of stolen goods, the consequences of shoplifting may involve felony charges of grand theft or larceny.
The legal consequences of shoplifting can include any or all of the following penalties: jail or prison time, punitive fines, community service hours, and more. Offenders are often prohibited from entering the place of business from which they stole goods. Teenage offender’s parents will most often be notified immediately if their child is caught shoplifting.
If you would like to learn more about the consequences of shoplifting, you may wish to contact a knowledgeable attorney who can help determine your legal rights and options.

I bought 2 maf sensors from my local yard here for $3.....
they really REALLY dont care about little **** out here.... Walking out with some bulbs and trim peices is NOT theft from a junkyard, as its hard to steal something that is worth NOTHING. Junkyards get 90% of their money from just scrapping the cars and selling motors/transmissions, the extra bits of money they see out of selling parts is chump change, and really just considered a bonus at that point.
I know that all of the little **** I have actually paid for went straight into the pockets of the guys I gave the money too, as I dont ever get receipts... So now who is the one stealing?

Was it theft...yes.
What I find amazing is the attitude of trying to justify it.
Low life trash just about covers it, and explains why we keep low life trash like him out of the yard.

I never said you did anything illegal, I said you did something wrong. If he wants to admit to crimes, that's his business. I already agreed that it is stealing and I'm no longer talking about that. I'm talking about you going out of your way to start a new thread just to judge him, which is far above and beyond what's necessary. You're not the police here, it's not your job to hold hearings when someone breaks a rule. Stop acting innocent, you didn't simply post an innocuous hypothetical question to gauge public opinion, you deliberately quoted him word for word in a new thread for the sole purpose of attracting attention to something that has nothing to do with you. Again, I ask, what did you hope to accomplish? Given your responses so far, it would seem you wanted everyone to come look at your thread, read the quotes, judge them and then make a nice little post condemning thieves. Sound about right? Omitting his name means nothing, we all know who and what incident you're talking about. So again I ask you, do you feel better about yourself now? Are you happy that you stirred up a big old mess and taddled on somebody? Do you fell vindicated now that people have chimed in here to say that stealing is wrong, as if anyone didn't already know that? Do you think the person you quoted or anyone else is going to change their mind now that you've called someone up in front of the class and shamed them in front of everyone? Get over yourself, no ones happy or impressed that you got all high and mighty and called someone out for a good old public stoning.

I swapped out my wiper controls out of a car in a junk yard because it had perfect lettering. but i put my old one in thier. i dont think its stealing but jimmy might differ. Who cares if the guy took some parts. its not right.. yea but still who cares. it wasn't someones car. it was abandoned and abused and in a junk yard. he was "rescuing parts from ruin" thats how i look at it.
