OP,

You're one paycheck away from being "these people."

Don't kid yourself, hon.

Because you people demand it so I can make the same amount of money as you. We all know "these people" is a term historically used to reference all races other than white. But it's ok as the shoplifter was not good (she got caught) I just assume OP meant PWT.


But doesn't affirmative action help you? So you don't have to work as hard to get into or pay for good schools and get good jobs?

As an overly educated AA, I like to think OP is talking about PWT.
Oh yeah I went there after the "these people " comment it is deserved.


Interesting that you infused "these people" with racial overtones when there is no mention of the shoplifter's race.

I didn't know Filene's has children's shoes.


Yes.


Then she's dumb as well as dishonest. She should have gone somewhere like Target where security is not as tight.


Nobody said she was taking shoes. People in need generally take high priced items they can sell for cash. But nobody knows if she was in need or doing something like Wynona Rider.

I know that if I had felt the urge to shoplift today, DD would have had to come with me.

You want she should add child endangerment to her crimes?


Yes. Let's hire a babysitter so we can shoplift.

Urge to shoplift? What is that, anyway? Even if she was a kleptomaniac - stealing is still a crime.

If you really want an answer to "why would she do that", the answer is, kids provide camouflage for nefarious activity. Folks are less willing to suspect parents. Seen it dozens of times.

Is this an actual news story or just a way to pass time on the boards?
