Every year, a handful of poppy donation boxes get stolen, and every year, people make it out like it's a Joker-esque crime spree

Like, yes, obviously catch people that do this, but it's a crime of opportunity that nets them like $20. I sincerely doubt that it's some intentional attack on soldiers like it's made out to be. We have larger things to worry about as a society.

for the money they get I'd think the shitkicking they would take if caught would offset the benefit -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 17:22 2
- I heard tell that they sent the helicopter after one of these guys - Reagen Nov 7, 17:27 1
