retail theft

[cinole80]

What is the name of your state? illinois
Is there a law that prevents someone from returning merchandise thought to be stolen for money/credit?

 

[lastexit]

yes

There is a law against returning stolen items for cash!
I infer that you're thinking about doing it, or did it. DON'T DO IT! If you are busted, you will not be allowed into Canada for 7 years! Think about the consequences pal! (I should listen to my intuition)

I am curious about something...

... and am wondering if something was edited, or I am missing something. What's the deal with the denial of entry into Canada have to do with it? I mean, convicted of anything has a multitude of collateral actions on a person other than the actual things imposed by a judge in court; you may not be able to leave a certain jurisdiction, you may not be able to own a gun, you may not be able to vote, go in bars, etc. Did I miss something? Did cinole80 ask something about wanting to work in Canada, or is this a joke that's over my head, sarcasm I don't understand? If it is, someone please explain it to me...I'm slow here. I could see a crack at saying you may not be able to go to France or something, but did the Canadians do something I missed out on? Help me here...I'm slow.

no time for confusion...

It was a refrence to USA/Canada's border law banning Canadian/American shoplifters from attaining entrance into the country. I think that this ban is absurd; this "offense" is a dumb decision, not a vicious crime.

Sorry that I left out that explanation.
