this is what will get the post locked. I think anyone who know colin can pretty much tell what his world views are.

none the less, the worse part is he will be on youtube known as the short shorts shoplifter for all eternity

just heard this on the radio. now every time I hear it i'll have to laugh

Hmm, the cop I posted about lives in my state. Its the most republican state in the union. Care to guess what party 70% of the shoplifters belong to? <<removed>>

lets chill with the politics. this thread is about cheese sticks, getaway westfalias ice cream and short shorts. every demographic has their shitbags. sad thing here is if you read the youtube comments it kind of puts a black eye on the hobby we associate with.

Ive Got A Fever And The Only Prescription Is More Cheese Sticks

Best part of this thread will be Don telling people to chill

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

I will salve my bad feelings about this by remembering all the good people on Samba and hope that Colin addresses his issues and grows from them.

Fuck man, I've always had respect for the guy helping others and giving back to the community.
Whatever is taking place, hardship or negligence, I hope Colin can face the embarrassment and move on.
I've never met him, but via social media and forums knew he was quirky, doesn't mean someone is wrong. I hate to see this shit. We've all done dumb things in our lives, but this doesn't make sense. This has to be blatant, rebellious "thrill" behavior".

I do agree gas station ice cream sandwiches are way overpriced.
Colin, settle this debt. I'm embarrassed and ashamed, but believe there is and can be resolve from stupidity.

this really is sad.
I do want to say, however that when he was at my place to help and teach me, he had no reservations with getting dirty and taking over for a large part of the day. He was not a teacher only. for the work that he did over the 9 hours, I felt my 500 and change was well spent. I would have spent more taking it to a air cooled mechanic and picking it up the next day.
Still, very sad and disappointing

^^^^^^^

Laughing

i'll take one. only if he pulls them out of his short shorts though.

sad thing is he drove off. from what I gather the gas station encounters guy will prosecute. had he just got out, went in and paid they may not have...but being the second offence, not sure.

I hope he gets the help he needs.

Geez I’m shocked and also had a good laugh at this. It’s so crazy, always enjoyed reading his posts. The worst part is those cheese sticks and ice cream would be tax deductible, he’s travelling for work....

If they have had to install all of that equipment & hired an employee dedicated to catching shoplifters, this is more than a handful of thieves.

I agree. I deal with a lot of upper class people stealing little stupid things all the time. Over a years time these type of people contribute to as much inventory shrink as the professional ring of thieves that steal big ticket items in fewer hits. I’ve had a Sheriffs wife (employee) go to jail for embezzling thousands of dollars. A Stanford tennis athlete lose his scholarship for stealing tennis rackets, and an elementary school teacher get cuffed for pocketing candles. Kleptomania is a real disorder. What disappoints me most is when he was called out to make this is right by a Facebook follower. He allegedly said “No” He’s in deep. Perhaps he can still make it right somehow. Personally I like the guy and hope he can self reflect to get help.

Can we leave Robbie out of this. He’s done nothing wrong and doesn’t deserve to be associated with Colin’s mess.

So you're assuming he claims any of his income?

I bet 8ts a cash business and he shows no income.
