    people, there be many other interpretations and opinions of the
    robbery incident, here's mine: 

>     " I fail to understand why you feel you can't trust the vendor who

>     longstanding personal friendship. Her lack of desire to prosecute

    this obviously was not a situation for "three c" response:
    'compassion + consideration = condone'. it was a situation where a
    true 'friend' would insist on a resolution in accordance with the
    law, sending the thief in front of a judge, to ensure that she is
    required to undergo and complete treatment and counseling. but
    methinks the vendor doth protest too much in the name of
    'compassion' when it is more likely in the name of her 'profit' from
    the pending $4,000.00 sale to the thief. what the vendor's
    "compassion" says to me about her: who could trust someone who had
    the opportunity to possibly stop the thief from stealing from others
    - whose losses will not be "stopped at the door" - and refused to do
    so in the name of profit? what would the 'community' think about her
    arrest? all over town there would probably be people saying "darn,
    so that's where my [fill in the blank] went!" 

    think people, think: you are not the sole occupant of this planet,
    your every action, or lack thereof, affects the lives of others in
    some way.
