Sounds to me like these are the people who victimize society every day of the year.
I can understand the folks who take food, drinks, diapers, etc. - hell - even the beer, but taking televisions and other things that are pretty useless under current circumstances just doesn't compute. Do they think there's gonna be somebody to buy it from 'em?
Betcha $20 his name is on Welfare and Public Assistance roles everywhere!
