ok so i steal as we all do at least those of us who belong to this group, the thing is is that i live in a very very small canadian town and most of the stuff i have stolen comes out of the local walmart or retail stores so heres the thing i have stolen some pretty big items like a 42" tv, computer, ps3(more than one), many cameras, clothing, shoes,toys tons and tons of stuff really believe it or not but i actually got help to my car by the walmart greeter with the 42' t.v. . So i lately have been SUPER PARANOID that the cops are gooing to come to my door and arrest me like what if they have me on video taking the stuff and are going to come and get me, the thing is that i have been back to the walmart many times since and have continued to take stuff with no trouble from the authorities so u would think that if they had me on vid or were investigating all these thefts that they would have a video survallience pic of me up in the staff room and notify employees to call if they see me right??? i dont know i have stopped stealing because of my intense paranoia and guilt could someone please tell me im being overly worrisome or mayb i have every right to be so freaked can they come get me???

" As far as Walmart goes, they would have already come for you. They are the "catch you at the door" kind of place. They don't have high tech survveilance, at least not in my small town Walmart.

My MIL had her car's rear window broken in broad day light at Walmart and their camera's footage was so blurry they couldn't tell her what happened to her car. She's an employee there. They promised her new cameras were on the way. Her rear window was shattered. Either someone used a crow bar to smash it in or her car was hit by another vehichle. Either way, that should have shown up on camera since it was noon and she was parked near handicapped parking where several "cameras" are visible.

Target, on the other hand, is a total nightmare and would wait until they have a bunch of tape on you and then nab you with all the evidence. Their cameras work!

I believe since you have stopped you are good. Just don't start doing it again! "

" If I were you I wouldn't go back there.
But if you have to, don't steal anything. Not one thing. Not even a pack of gum
You have a lot of stuff in your house, be careful. Fingers crossed they're all retards at wallmart and won't notice a 42" tv go missing. "
