No, there isn't a difference and only the brain-dead among us think there is.

Did it feel good to abuse the employee because you didn't like the store's policy?

So many of the crooks today, are younger, and a lot more women then ever. Believe this, even some rich looking folks, whose children are even in on the escapades.

There are more thiefs then any of us can imagine, really this is sad for the retailers. You would think that there are more teenagers, stealing, i have been told that there are more middle agers and older doing the stealing.
Hmmm.... just my opinion, but I don't think you get the post. Not sure of too many children that are using credit cards to make a purchase at a cash register.

Nope. Joe Biden was the author of the PA.
