so it’s best to rob the store on new release dates. not.

$20,000 in a day is $33 per minute (and that’s allowing a 10 hour day). That’s a small town that likes their games – or you are exaggerating.

Your nephew is an idiot and you are a bigger idiot for believing him.

Thanks for playing!

You are very bitter, That time of the month Jackie?

Yes. He robbed the store on October 13th so he could get all the money from the sales of three games that didn’t come until November (well, technically B3 came out on October 25).

Reading is fundamental!

Thanks for playing!

CB, reread the last line. “The man then escaped with the cash.” The way the story is written I believe the man did indeed get the cash he had demanded.

“handing over a piece of paper with a demand for $3,000.

The man then escaped with the cash.”

If you paid attention in English class, you would know that this is inferring that he got all the cash.

Chris it is implied… Inferences are what you make… Nice try

Yup, let’s tell Javert about this Jean Vanjean guy, and put him away for good.

The real criminals are in elected office. Don’t see anyone real froggy to prosecute them. The food banks are much more likely to help the poor illegal immigrant than the middle aged white guy trying to feed his kids… The reason we have problems in this country is because people refuse to use common sense and see reality for what it is. When justice is blind, justice works. Otherwise its just the strong arm of those in charge at the time…

I agree. However, if he and his family are homeless and he tries to collect benefits, CPS may take his kids and put them in foster care. This has happened in the past and is happening now. Though the $3,0000 figure is interesting. How did he come up with that number?

Bill Mason: You really have NOT done your homework. When you look at the: cops, teachers, health workers, administrators, treasurers, bookkeepers, doctors, lawyers, elected Representatives, Senators, and Judges who have been imprisoned, the list is LONG!!!!

Most civil servants and elected officials do GREAT work, the bad guys are targeted, investigated, and, if convicted, GO TO PRISON!!!!!

If he is a God-fearing, white, heterosexual, Republican Christian, he must go free!!!
If he is a non-white, hang him high!

Food banks only help out so much and it depends on if they have enough in stock. Have to remember that food banks have been suffering right now as well and you can only go to some of them twice a month. Not saying that I am for what he did, just pointing something out. I could never rob someone to feed my family, the risk is too great, but people do crazy things when they are desperate.

Indeed. The robber is also a liar. With the equivalent of the entire nation of Spain within our borders on Food Stamps, I think this man could have managed to qualify.

no jury would convict him of this if his story is true and if he is a first timer even the DA would not be likely to deal with it. i for one would pat this man on the sholder and personally pay his legal fees if he did go to trial. yes it was extreem but if his goal was to feed his kids then i applaud him

gee Charles your stupidity far excedes his “ignorance” or maybe you are just too stupid to understand what the word ignorance means?

Charles your wrist should be easy to chop off.

It’s a limp-wrist.

how does it feel to be asinine enough to project your own thoughts on someone else and then try and lambaste them for it? You retar d

That’s like defending those damn dirty Muslims for throwing gays off buildings for being gay. How does it feel to defend them when they kill your gay friends?

That’s right salad-tosser, hush-mode…..

hush-mode.

Wouldn’t that make your cheeks glow?. Statement and question

♥*~$h@Rp!E~*♥ Posted on umm maybe like jazzy or J.J as the names and + vmpeiras are real people with health disorders and they kinda don’t drink blood but they do use donations and stuff to keep living ok well i hope that helped.

I can tell how much you love your neighbors and people who are not just like you from this.

In a way she is right but without all the stereotyping, I know first hand about that one. When my hubby was laid off from work indefinitely, we filed for unemployment and followed all the steps they asked us too. They even helped us sign up for benefits, now before he was laid off we lived paycheck to paycheck. When you go in for this meeting with your potential caseworker they have you bring in all this information including your last 3 or 4 pay stubs.

The federal government does not allow them to base your income on your net pay, but it is based on your gross pay which is how they calculate whether or not you qualify. Even though my husband was only getting $300 a week for 4 people on unemployment, they said they could not help us. We were $10 over the limit and not considered poverty level even though he did not have a job. It was all based on what he previously made and they told us we would have to wait and apply again.

As I was sitting there in the waiting room, I was reading all this so-called useful information about what to do if your in need of their services. There is a section that says if you cannot provide a social security number and your not a U.S. Citizen, you can still get food stamps. How is this fair? We had to bring in Picture ID’s, SS cards, Birth Certificates, Rental Agreement, Utility Bills, Proof of a Car, Proof of any money we had in the bank, Report Cards and Shot Records for the kids, get a paper filled out by someone who could vouch for the members in our household and a few more other things. Illegals that enter this country and ask for help do not even have to show an 1/8 of this information.

So yes I can understand her frustration, I have been through it and seen it in action. The lady that called us back basically snubbed us, told my kids to sit quietly before they even made any noise ( they were 8 and 16) and talked down to us. Before she called us in, she called in a Hispanic family and she gave them a warm greeting, shook their hands, smiled at the kids and held the door open for them. So maybe Princess Tyra went a little overboard in her stereotypes but blame it first on the people who instill these stereotypes.

Brian, I can tell you don’t remember that not so long ago, our country wasn’t attempting to play host to the third world. Diversity is not a source of strength, no matter how many times the government-funded PSAs tell us it is. Try emigrating to Australia or nearly any other country in the world. You must bring with you a job skill that is needed and be able to support yourself. In Mexico, you may not become a resident if you will disrupt the national demographics. Indeed, if we adopted the Mexican immigration policies wholesale, we’d be worlds better off than we are under the insane scheme we currently have.

Hey Becky –

Thank you for taking the time to write that thought-provoking response. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

so what… the company still has to make up the loss… or is this just the grand plan to push the OWS agenda?

Nov 2012 cometh

Oh, so it’s ok to steal from a big corp. but not a little guy? Or are you just making an informative statement?

Gamestops may be a billion dollar company but they can still be franchised. There are some in our are that are franchises and a friend of mine works for one. That is why not all Gamestops carry the same new inventory as others except for some of new releases that people pay in advance for. That is the same for fast food restaurants like McDonald’s and Taco Bell.

Dear Becky,

ALL GameStop’s are owned by the company. Let me repeat this..ALL GAMESTOP’S ARE OWNED BY THE COMPANY.

If you care to refute this, don’t bother. I once worked in the higher offices of GS.

Thanks for playing though!

So, the insurance company pays out. The store owner’s rates go up. In other words, his cost still goes up. This robbery wasn’t “free” money. When will people learn that everything has a cost to somebody?
