Do I LOOK like a pretty White woman? 'Cause we all know those are the majority of shoplifters, according to the FIB.

When I was about 6 or 7 I went to the local hobby shop and swiped a small model battleship. The pocket of my parka had a hole in it, so I pushed the box containing the ship through the hole and around to the back of my jacket in case anyone decided to search my pockets.

I remember being in a 7/11 (at the time the only convenience stores around) as a kid, probably 6 or 7 with my Mom. I took a piece of gum, when they used to have a big bin of individually wrapped gum, unwrapped it and stuck in in my mouth. The clerk saw me and told my mother what I did. Well I got it and got it good from her on why that was wrong and that it was shoplifting and explained what that meant. Then my Father came home.
Safe to say I've never 5 finger discounted anything else in my life.

I robbed a Woolworths once back in the late sixties. My Parents had given me an AR15 for Christmas and it seemed like the right thing to do.

Yes. A few Chunky bars from the local deli.

Mom and Dad found out. Dad drove me to the store,dragged me in, made me apologize and pay for what I had taken.
