When people steal the latest iPhone they should go to jail
When people steal a bread they should be given the help they need
just wondering aloud here (genuinely - i'm not trying to be an ass)
are iphones sold from local shops? or just apple stores.
i think a lot of small business owners sell bread.
can buy a lot of bread after stealing an iphone
What % of stolen iPhones do you think are sold for food money
And what about bottles of alcohol, toiletries and meat to be sold at the local pub?
