I do not understand the mind of a thief. Sure they are taking something that doesn’t belong to them for personal gain, but what possesses a person to think that is okay?
We attended Family Day at a church facility that our special needs granddaughter attends. In conversation with one fellow, he told about how thieves had taken all the mowers and other lawn care equipment from the location - in broad daylight. This equipment is very expensive and necessary. There is almost 70 acres to maintain. Volunteers do the work, but the organization has to provide the equipment.
Over the years I have known personally several thieves. They have no remorse for their actions. Even the ones that stole from family members that had nothing to spare.
Maybe the ancient punishment of cutting off a hand is not such a bad idea. And, if they steal again, cut off the other hand. Nope. It would never work. Some nanny would first say that is cruel and then make us pay for artificial limbs to replace the ones cut off.
Ain't that’s stealing too?
