My air conditioner repair man showed up for work the other day without his ladder(s). It seems they had been stolen and cut up for metal scrap by drug addicts. This is similar to the several incidents of air conditioner units in our area that have been stolen for their scrap metal content value, mainly to buy drugs.
So an $8000 HVAC unit gets stolen from a CHURCH for a few hundred dollars worth of scrap metal so someone can get high? I think there should be a change in the law. Certain criminal acts should have a "Zombie Equivalency", so just like you can shoot a zombie without worrying about prosecution, you might even get a reward, metal thieves are pretty low down there on the scale of WPP, worth-per-pound. You could just tell the police, "Sorry, he was trying to steal my cool", to which the police would reply, "Gee, thanks, we've been trying really hard to catch that particular one. Here's your Z.E. voucher to pay for your bullets. Would you like your lead back?"

I can agree with that one. Sure with save money on court proceedings and incarcerations and all that kind of crap.
I've been away from things of late, but I assure you that I was not stealing AC's or ladders or anything like that.
