BAD BOYS (GIRLS) BAD BOYS, WATCHA GONNA DO WHEN THEY COME FOR YOU?
GOOD JOB, DEXTER PD.
SCUMM!!!!
Some day crooks are going to figure out that you will be on tape if you use stolen checks or credit cards at Wal-Mart. Hopefully, no time soon...
Ugh, I work at Wal-Mart here in New York. Do people not realize what technology is capable of these days? Morons.
Well, MAYBE people shouldn't be so quick to judge others. MAYBE you can't believe everything you read. MAYBE if three of the people knew what was going on when they innocently went with a friend to Wal-Mart they could have told the bonehead what they were doing was stupid. MAYBE the charges got dropped completely for two of the four and MAYBE these were good people who just made a bad decision. MAYBE . . .
