    Fair enough. Then the best thing for us to do is part ways here.

    I do believe that’s his motivation because I’ve seen it happen a lot back when I was working in shelters and because he could have gotten more than a hundred bucks if he was robbing a bank if his motivation was money.

    However, if you don’t think I should be assuming anyone’s motivation that’s a perfectly reasonable stance. It won’t stop me, but I get where you’re coming from and I’m glad we talked it out so I could understand.

      I promise you this man did not steal $100 to get 15 years in prison on purpose. I appreciate your polite demeanor but it also feels like you’re playing nice while not considering what I’m saying.

      Have a good one man.

        That may be where our disconnect is. I think he did it to get a couple of days to a couple of weeks. I absolutely do not believe he did it to get 15 years.

        I promise that it’s not that I’m not considering it, it’s that I still feel like I’m missing something. I’m a pretty oblivious guy and that happens sometimes. I don’t think you’re coming at me with ill intent and I get the feeling that you and I would agree on a whole lot of shit, just not the minutiae here. I don’t want to burn a good discussion bridge with someone that seems like a good actor and considerate person.

        You have a good one as well, and I genuinely hope we get to have more discussions.
