Fact is, that was over 15 years ago, i straighted up and I bust my *** for everything I get now. So most of you guys that are saying I'm a piece of ****, you can kiss my *** because you probably got some help from, I don't know, parents, relatives, you know people who can. i didn't really have ****. But I'm sure a FEW of you can can relate.

And no, I don't steal **** to this day. Last time I stole any thing was a 20 oz pepsi from walmart when I was 16. And I got busted. And I went to jail for a .75 cent pepsi. From then on, was a turning point because I knew I had to get my **** straight. I finished high school on my own, again with no help, and took some college classes and still do when I can. Anyone on here that knows me will agree that I help anyone and everyone I can and charge anything to make a profit. I am by far a greedy person. That's what's good about growing up. You learn stuff along the way.....
I for one worked for everything I have and I never sold stolen **** to get it. There is no excuse for being a thief. Good for you for straightening up but instead of getting all defensive about it you should have just kept your mouth shut or at the very least showed some remorse.

It's not that ppl didn't do anything wrong, it's the fact that you admitted to it, but didn't seem to ashamed of what you did. Sucks to hear about your life being hard, but plenty of other people's lives were hard and they survived without stealing from other people. Just my .02.

Looking back on it, yeah it was wrong. I don't feel ashamed about it, but I don't like the fact that I did stuff either.

hooptie, you're condoning your actions back then and there's no justification for it. You should have gotten a job and actually earned the money and not have stolen from someone regardless of your situation. How would you feel today if some kid came and stole a bunch of your stuff that you worked and paid for? You, yourself admit that you're a greedy person and that you will do anything to make a buck. You sir, have no integrity as a person. Geez...some people

Looking at that, that's not what i meant to say. It was meant to be I am by far not a greedy person. And Im not. And yes, I have had **** stolen from me. Laptops, drills, tools, money.

And it is not that I am condoning my actions. By anymeans. I NEVER stole **** from an individual.

Damn Tony, maybe you should hire somebody to watch all your stuff? I'm sure you can afford it.

I prefer Rocksalt, its legal and gets the job done. Then if they are stupid enough to come back with some **** I use the real stuff.

NO sir. If he was on tonys property all they would of done was taken his gun for processing and kept it for about 6 months.

Tony, my dad has a small car lot, and crap like that used to happen all the time. Its a big pain in the *** to deal with, especially if in one night someone comes and steals 3 at a time.

Only think i can tell you to help detour crime is to install cameras, thats exactly what we had to do for the car lot, and our house. Needless to say crimie has been minimal and the people get busted each time.

I have a concealed carry license, and TX allows you to use deadly force to stop someone from stealing. At night, you can even shoot someone on your property for criminal mischief here in Texas.

This happened in Summerwood, Northeast side of Houston. I'm moving to the Woodlands area in about a month. Nice going away present, huh?

Should have better luck in the woodlands, but knowing your luck crime shall follow. No place is crime free.

That just plain sucks. Most people do not understand the level of rage you are sent into when you get your personal property stolen until it happens to them. If the theives had a clue, they would not even think about touching another mans personal property.

I think moving to the Woodlands will sure help reduce the risk of this crap happening.

Sorry to hear it has happened to you again. I know it gets old quick.
