Message: [QUOTE="bevosu, post: 2075702, member: 46"] I'm as bleeding heart as any. I sympathize with people who are disadvantaged. Put people in a poverty situation and crime usually results at a higher rate than Darien, Connecticut. (not counting white collar crime) The Irish, the Italians, when they first came to this country had to try and get themselves out of poverty. Not always legally. But...I spent 4 years living in those Skytop townhouses and if any student was caught and [B]convicted[/B] of stealing from another resident I'd want them gone. No way I want to live among thieves. I don't think it's fair to other students to have neighbors like that. Most that live in a frat/sorority, or a dorm, probably feel the same way. I'm pretty sure most people don't enjoy living down the street from people who steal from their own neighbors. The hell with community service. [/QUOTE]
