For the same amount of time he spent burglarizing and then trying to sell stolen goods he could have probably asked the homeowner if they wanted a couple of hours work for pay
THAT’S how he could get some money for clothes.
Not cause hundreds of dollars of damage/loss for a few dollars and hours lost time.
Seriously... How stupid are these people?
Excellent point, and one that will surely be lost in the dust-up to follow.
Seriously stupid - and without a speck of morality to boot. That makes them really dangerous to any civilized society this side of Lord Of The Flies.
We should bring back the stocks, whipping posts, and ducking stools. It might not cure their lack of moral center but it may help cure their pathological behaviors.
Many of them are very stupid, as in significantly below average IQ. Worse, they exist in a culture which actively scorns education and earning, but lionizes criminality. They truly are the children of the mis-named 'civil rights movement', whose message was "Gimme or we'll riot!!!"
