sorry man .... they probably took it over the road to Boss Man ... I would be kicking myself if I had lost that ammount , so sympathy to you

So many to reply to! Where do I start?! I'll reply to multiple people in this one post.

Firstly, Fuck you pretentious faggot #1. I have a different opinion to you, and you don't like it. Boo-hoo, grow the hell up. If someone saw me pick up a wallet and begin looking through it, chances are they'd do nothing, because that's the moral fibre of the general public. You're quick to throw your point of view in when hid behind a monitor, but you'd be less likely to act on it IRL.


Let me put it this way. Say you're walking down the street and see a nice shiny pound lying there on the floor. You'd pick it up and say "Ooh, a shiny pound, how lucky am I?" despite the fact that pound doesn't belong to you, and using your own definition; you're stealing. Now you're probably going to assume the position of "Yes, but a pound is completely different to ?100" but the simple fact is it isn't. In order for you to cling precariously to those morals, you'd have to turn in that pound, wouldn't you?


If I see money hanging out of an ATM, I'm going to take it because someone else will if I don't. If I see a wallet, I'll take the cash as a finders fee, and hand in the empty wallet. If I see cash on the ground, it's mine. You may not approve of my morals, but at least I'm honest about them, and don't attempt to pass myself off as a self righteous bastard.


So the question is: When does "Luck" become "Greed"?

mmmm...


some people on the EDF were far too cool to be worried about the common man's petty obsessions with MPs expenses - but Starmix is beyond the pail for being honest about taking advantage of someones misfortune...(or if not honest at least taking a contrary position)


*Goes away scratching head once again*

I saw it too, it was puerile, homophobic and totally beyond the pale.


Quids, you've seen a whole raft of points of view expressed on the forum before, do you really think a message would be removed for saying you should take the money from a cashpoint? If so, how come all the previous posts remained?

I called a member a pretentious faggot after he/she began flaming based on assumptions. I was right about the pretentious part, but I apologise if the word offended anyone. I suppose you could just wordfilter that out and this problem would never occur again.


HOWEVER.


After I'd dealt with that insipid member, I continued to go on with the topic of the thread, in specific saying that if you found a small amount of currency (a pound, 50p I forget what) it would still constitute as stealing, however your conscious would register it as yourself just coming into a bit of "Luck". I then went on to pose the question: When does "Luck" become "Greed"? In which I meant how much do you have to find before you consider turning it in?

Personally I see no issue with taking a finders fee from a wallet, (In the position of victim I'd be happy to have my wallet back, regardless of the loss of cash) or taking money from an ATM that the user has been too stupid to take for themselves. (In the same position, I'd curse myself for being such a damn idiot, and then get on with life)


[sarcasm]Brendon, I apologise if my grammar and spelling has made your visit to this thread unpleasant. Please, PM me any wikipedia or online dictionary articles you think would aid me in my eternal quest for perfect literacy.[/sarcasm]

mmm education, i go to a 15k a year school, on 100% academic scholarship.

Yet, im 'scum' and also,A vast amount of people are being so pretencious and middle class,

you are all fighting a losing battle, deep down a vast majority of your hearts will be

going, 'Hmm, them 'scum' that can't write propely, are right.'

" i go to a 15k a year school, on 100% academic scholarship."


I'm counting at least two chips on your shoulder here.

I'd take a deep breath and try and engage in a slightly less confrontation

manner.


On your plus side, a thief you maybe but at least you're an honest thief and your steering clear of pejorative terms like your agesake ;)

    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me      
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.  
    • Some suggestions for mandatory action might include:- 1. Permit retailers to display facial images on the premises  of previous offenders at their local store. 2. Sound an alert and display images on screens inside the store when the FR flags up a person entering who is on the national database of shoplifters. 3. Physically bar recognised shoplifters from the premises. Should they attempt to force entry then charges should be pressed under aggravated trespass, which  a criminal offence under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. 4. Change the law to allow retailers to have enhanced powers of citizens arrest. What would you suggest? The UK seems to have the most lenient policy towards shoplifting , probably because of other demands on the police force. On the plus side, they may have more time for it now that non-crime hate incidents will no longer be investigated. Other countries, such as the USA have much more sever punishment as does Singapore where repeat offenders or aggravated cases can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison, a fine, or both.
