Just youths?

Shoplifting costs the retail outlet something like £5 billion per year.

Yes shop lifting is looting without the violence.

I just wonder if many of the people and some ABers who condemned the looting would indeed have helped themselves had they had access to a store with no security in an atmosphere of "come on in and fill yer boots"..

Just a thought.

I couldn't live with myself - or watch the nicked plasma tv. Besides I can't run very fast nowadays

Nice to know Neti.

The Black economy costs the UK over eight times that amount.

If you would not shoplift would you pay cash for a job and split the VAT with the workman?

JTP, yes, without batting an eye lid!! I have done thousands of cash jobs and sleep easy in my bed!
