Mood: It's a Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah Day

IF we apply the same logic to other criminal behavior, then the Criminal who sticks a pistol in your face and carjacks you in order to sell your vehicle to a chop shop is NOT the real problem. The buyer who is wanting/willing to purchase the parts at a bargain price is the culprit.

Such a fundamental rethinking of criminal law would certainly change our judicial system.

Mr. Bill, I would say the criminal that stick's the pistol to your face is in 50% in fault yet most likely he would not do so if he had not a chance to sell the car to the chop shop (except if he has real big garage and collects cars) therefore they are BOTH guilty - on top:they are breaking BOTH the law. Of course do you, with a pistol in your face have a different opinion - so would I...

If i recall right: this thread - and many others addressing this topics the past weeks mainly talk about the " mexican problem" and to my opinion it's like said above = no buyer, no seller... therefore it is not alone a mexican problem....

Continue your boycott of Arizona and Irvine


According to reports posted on this site, both places in the US are more crime ridden than the border. Stay consistent.
