So you think derogatory comments towards minorities is okay?
Yes I am! I'm 12!
You've been fooled into believing utter bullshit.
You think robbing a bank is immoral? How can robbing a system based on exploitation, impoverishment and complete immorality be immoral?
All corporations going bust would be the perfect opportunity for humanity to re-organise itself. We don't need corporations, and we certainly don't need banks.
You're a snob, end of story.
And since when was "spa" such a bad word. You don't use it meaning spastic, you mean it in a non-literal sense.
Like "fuck off ya spa"
and you think that I've been fooled. You're deluded.
Humanity does not want to re-organise itself, and, if it did, it would reorgnise into exactly what we already have.
Aye sure hold on there, i'd be dead if i took everything as serious as you.
As turlough said it wasn't mean in terms of spastic, it's just a word that everyone says around here, "fuck, you forgot my cd you spa".
It doesn't want to but it needs to.
Just a quick reminder that while you are obviously all entitled to your views on shoplifting - this is a public forum so if you admit to any kind of criminal behaviour on here then there is a chance it will be seen by people that you wouldn't want to.
Without reading the thread, is this a humorous or ironic post, or are you actually being serious?
I worry because I think I know what the answer is..........
My parents are obsessed with getting to the supermarket at the "right time" to get that stuff. I never buy it myself though; you just know they're employ psychologists who are tracking your moves from the bargain bread to the bargain cakes to the eggs that are reduced because one's cracked. It makes me feel paranoid . I also notice that a lot of stuff only has about 20p off, which fools you into thinking you've gotten a bargain when in reality it's still over-priced crap that you'd have never bought if it was still full-price. Not that I'm cynical about Tesco et al, of course
As for stealing, I used to put extra penny sweets in my mix-up etc. Still feel a bit guilty sometimes when I see the owner, foolishly trusting us to put in the right amount.
I've never stolen anything signifigant, and don't think I ever would. I could probably justify it to myself in certain exceptional circumstances, but I would be entirely too scared of being caught.
How anyone as old as yourself can seriously believe that is truly unfathomable.
Everything around you is WRONG. Maybe one day you'll realise that when you actually learn to critically analyse the political system around you instead of continuing to be insidously conditioned by a rotten and manipulative culture.
A great quite I discovered today, sums up this and other problems in a fantastically liberal capitalist view...
That nonsense you've quoted is "great"
That's an absolutely ridiculous explanation, and not one any person worth talking to would come away with.
Do you really believe that's it??
You really are some sort of cunt arn't you?
Love it. You were 'forced' to nab some popcorn (mmm...nutritious), a bottle of irn bru and a chocolate drink (ever heard of water)? You really think that stealing from Tesco will effect their profits at all? No, they'll just put the price up for the rest of us, or maybe fire some of their lower grade workers (more people on benifits, thats exactly what we need - maybe all of them will be 'forced' to steal from Tesco too).
Why do people always bitch about Tesco, when it's them that put Tesco there in the first place? It's local councils that charge independent shops a fortune for rent, whilst being willing to forego all rules for huge supermarkets. And it's the consumer who chooses to spend all of their money is Tesco (Obviously, because it's cheaper). I wonder if it would be considered 'okay' to steal from an independent retailer, with extortionate mark-ups on their products, all of which goes into the owners pockets, and only employ one person? If you don't agree with that, you don't steal from them, you just shop elsewhere (like most people do).
I'm not a huge fan of people stealing to be honest, but I don't lose sleep over it. But I don't see why people try to justify it as morally good. Okay, there may be some extreme circumstances where someone might be required to steal. But generally speaking, I don't know why people don't just admit that they steal because they don't earn the money to pay for something they want (I want a Mercedes, would I be justified in stealing from that large multinational corporation based on exploitation?). It's funny that these people never have trouble paying for cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, mobile phones, internet access, Sky TV, a car. But I do understand how easy it can be to make a few mistakes, be irresponsible with money, and end up in an awkward situation. After you've signed up for Sky, a phone contract, internet connection (none of which can be cancelled before 12 months), bought a new washing machine on credit because the old one broke, paid to repair your car you need for work, it's easy to see how you could end up in a situation where you have more going out than coming in.
But even in this situation, the majority of people would admit that they only stole because they were desperate, and would still admit that they were wrong to do so. They certainly wouldn't try and justify in a half-arsed way as some sort of moral crusade against Tesco. Who do you think you're kidding? You were just too lazy to earn the money to pay for the luxuries that you wanted, and weren't willing to forego some of these luxuries. Either that or you had the money and didn't want to pay, in which case, you've got no moral justification at all.
no iv never stolen or knowingly stolen anything from a shop.
the thing that makes me laugh about the whole thing is that you go on about supermarkets exploit people, and about how homless people shouldnt be punished for stealing but you nicked the finest range lasagne.
if you were proving a point you could have nicked a normal one surely?
You justify you stealing by saying that stealing is not wrong because some people are homeless and cant afford to eat but you could afford to buy the skins and i imagine the tabacco / whatever to go in them.
if you found yourself that skint that you couldnt afford to eat wouldnt it have been logical to buy a loaf of bread not rizzlas?
so correct me if im wrong but basically what you were saying is that you have the right to shop lift and not feel bad about it because a farmers are being exploited and people ore homeless :eek2:
thats some warped logic.
That aimed at me?
Typical chav. Someone comes up with an argument they don't understand so they get abusive. :thumb: Don't you just love them.
Lol, I may be a chav but I'm far smarter than you and will be smarter than you will ever be so fuck you :thumb:
Typical fuckwit comment!
I feel sorry for you, you've got newbie syndrome, if you were here long enough you'd know what type of person I am, I've read your posts,,you seem to fall into the "I'm a normal person I think I know everything" buzz...well fuck you...I don't need to explain myself to a snobby cunt like yourself :thumb:
Fucking sures mate...I love the fact that we know what the buzz is all about...the rest are just losers
Don't need to explain yourself to me, or just can't address any of the issues that I've raised? Having had a few would be a viable excuse too. :wave:
That's not what he said. You called him a 'chav', whatever that means - but you don't actually know him.
