As I stated earlier, I can understand letting food thieves go. It's the people walking out of Walmart with 3TVs in the cart, or out of Home Depot with $2,000 worth of power tools, and nobody does anything about it, that boils my blood. They don't chase carjackers, bank robbers, or anyone but the occasional murderer. I don't understand it.
From what I have heard, research indicates excusing lesser crimes only increases the repeat and escalation to more serious crimes. Where will it end?
