Well, I thought he was bitchin'. Come baaaack!
Yeah. Thought his threads were ok and did not see anyone being rough in their answers so it is a bit of a "wha?"
Oh well, back to discussing ethical thieves without him.
As noted up above that got dismissed by him.
Theres a fine line between thief and vigilante or resistance fighter depending on how far someone stretches the term thief. And we know some nuts out there have stretched it to "everything on earth."
If you are stealing from enemy camps during war or after war occupation. Are you a thief or a resistance fighter?
Or to take it to the ad nausium extreme end... If the law confiscates stolen goods from criminals and return it to the original owners are they stealing from the criminals?
