> That's because putting someone in jail for stealing less than $950 worth of goods is bonkers. I really can't believe you still think that way. Have you been to a Walgreens/CVS in the city lately? Where everything's locked up, and security guards are shooting people on their own now? And you think it was "bonkers" before all of that started happening, wow.

If punishment is the only way to solve this, why be so timid? Cut their hands off.

That's fine with me, to be honest. Good people don't steal, so only bad people would be getting their hands cut off.

I honestly can't say if you are joking here or not.

In case you are not, then I am glad you don't get to dictate laws where I live.

I'm not joking, and if you live in a democracy then yes, I do get to dictate the laws where you live.

That’s the opposite, and you are now clearly trolling.
