I've sought professional help for my anger issues for the past month or so, and when i read something like this, I've got to go disappear into my quiet office and meditate and do my breathing exercises, and it's not even my gear, which shows you the extent of my problem..;) With that being said, we also have to take into consideration the current global economy and the sometimes desperate individuals who do desperate but foolish things for the sake of personal gain or even self preservation .. I've been ripped off twice in my life, and it's the most unsettling and gut wrenching feeling, followed by a surging wave of Incredible Hulk-type anger..

Whatever the case, i hope they bag and tag the bum..

Sending good luck vibes all the way from the great white north..

I'm with human71 all the way! The sooner the jerk is caught, the better! I'm sickened by this act. I come from a neighbourhood where these types of cowardly deeds are all too common. "Good luck vibes from the great white north" x2

I would bet that the goods were in Mexico within a few hours of the theft even if the thieves were not Mexican people. It happened to me in the mid 1980's in Houston.

No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.
