" Either it was already loaded up, or this is going to be the easiest catch the police ever made! 15 tons in three hours - just look for the person who can't move a muscle! Serves the thief right! I can't stand it when people think they have the right to steal. Drives me crazy when we work so hard for our stuff and save over time so we can afford something, and then somebody just thinks they can take it. "
