Wow, I guess VW owners really are cheap-asses! :)

At 54 years of age with way too much to lose, I've come to model most of my life outside like someone's watching.......cuz most of the time, THEY ARE.

I had a big diatribe all ready to lay down but I shelved it. Simply put...

Colins activity in those videos are disgusting, and I’m bummed.

Moderators, could this thread be locked?

The offender has been identified, he's been reported on the forums and overall on the Internet. It would seem the authorities have his name as well. They should be able to handle it from there.

Comments by customers over the pricing or quality of his services might be better suited to his Buyer & Seller thread.

Everything after that seems to be a hate fest that really doesn't benefit anyone.

Thanks.

P.S. I do not know Amskeptic personally, but I felt what he did, and this thread were a massive lowlight in this community. I don't wish him any ill, though. I just hope that he's held accountable for his actions, he can learn from the consequences, and move on.

These 2 words just about sum it all up.

Don’t know the guy but stealing is the lowest of the low, hopefully he gets what he deserves, I wouldn’t give him the steam off my piss!

Lets not judge. the only way I can afford strap-on tools is visiting CT for throat yogurt and stealing them from his place.

It's an uncomfortable truth but we don't know many people on the internet, do we?

I understand what you are saying and what you are saying comes from a good place. Perhaps we all take this to Colin’s “Free Speech” forum on his website.

And if anybody questions why I’m so pissed and crass about the lack of integrity displayed in that video. It’s because I deal with it daily in my work. It also affects how I get paid at the end of the year and a whole lot of other factors I will not discuss. Some people might feel the theft of an ice cream sandwich and cheese stick is no big deal. It actually is. Because the theft is so rampant at this location, the minimart had to get expensive cameras and a full time “Loss prevention” associate to deal with it. They now do YouTube with it and turn some loss into a gain to offset the operating cost. As a matter of fact I was injured today dealing with a shoplifter as this thread was being discussed. I wonder what Colin would say if he witnessed a politician doing the same thing in the video?

Today I lost a hero of the ACVW community and it bums me out.

I share that but am reminded of the great people I've met, and stayed at their houses, and have to remember the good over the bad.

It's not the cheap physical thing, it's the sickness and the pox it puts on society. Did you know in Japan, after the Tsunami, the police stations were overloaded with rooms full of cash that people find in the wreckage and turned in!

Not that a VW bus wouldn’t be a huge red flag, but it amazes me, that with the countless number of people that would go through a convenient store on a single day, that a person would remember someone that was in their store a year and a half before.

I think we, as a community, are all shocked to say the least. Goes to show how defective the human race can be. When I woke up this morning it was hoping this episode was just a bad dream.

I had met her about 3 weeks before when she was in the room where they monitor the video cameras and she was there to pick up a DVD that was to be used for evidence.

A balding midget who likes to stuff confectionary down his underpants would be quite memorable :D

I agree. Kleptomania is an addiction. Even my grandmother was addicted.

I feel bad for Colin, and hope he faces up to it and gets to move on from the embarrassment.

i'm up early because of a text message that was not only not important, but pretty stupid too.

you want a crusade Tram? I can post something else that you won't like. has to do with Dan and Jessica. shall I start another thread just for you?

seeing im up far too early because I was up far too late dealing with a very sick family member and I haven't had coffee yet...i'm in really rare form.

they're splitting all of that cheese and ice cream. hard to type with sticky fingers

Im sure Ole Colin the Skeptic will have some excuse, sticking to the man bc they jacked up the prices or something.

Alot of <<removed>> people think it isnt theft if you take it from a rich person or business.

Lots of people have sides we don't know about.

Sat Sep 21, 2019 6:02 am

Inserting blatant politics here is bullshit. And chickenshit too.

Id feel better about being caught for paying hush money to hookers rather than being caught for stealing an ice cream sandwich and some cheese sticks. At least he could say he was getting laid.

This^^^

Just a massive double standard magnificently executed by Colin. We've all suffered from Colin's political posts where he was so judgemental and opinionated about our deteriorating countries values, ethics, humanity and especially the shortcomings of our politicians.

Then, this video of him stealing not just once but twice comes out... clearly this isn't the only time he's been stealing from stores. He just got caught these two times.

Reminds me of this hypocrite that "sinned"...
