Default Holiday thiefs

W.T.F. is wrong with people lately? My 3 year old and I came home from swimming Tues. night and found his light up Mater lawn decoration had been stolen. He doesn't grasp what actually happened, he thinks someone borrowed it and it will be back. I ordered another one and will now keep it in his room for Christmas or I will chain the damn thing down. I posted it on the local Craigslist and it has caught on and getting spread around on Facebook. I just shake my head in disbelief at people sometimes.
Sorry had to vent. Thanks.

Someone obviously felt they were more entitled to it than your family.

I don't lock my car or house in Sun Valley Idaho -- and you can pile Xmas packages to the roof and leave the doors unlocked and nobody bothers a thing..


Sorry for the little guys loss!

yeah, some bastards did the same to my neighbor. They took his inflatable snow globe, a snow man and a bunch of candy cane decorations. I guess less fortunate people feel this is ok behavior. Well that was his attitude towards it and he replaced the stuff the next day.

Sorry GMtech

Not picking on you Vince, but your wording did bring a thought into my head,

When I was little, there were quite a few times, my mom struggled financially around the holidays. We still enjoyed the season and focused on family time. Not a lot of new bikes or fancy tennis shoes but I never felt without. I never be-grudged a kid who did get a new bike or some fresh kicks.

People who are out stealing Christmas decorations or robbing houses for gifts ARE NOT less fortunate. They are what they are in good times and bad, 365 days a year.
