    Wonder if this will have any effect?

      Sounds like a reasonable thing. However, I'd probably lower the threshold from $5,000.

      Now do California (specifically SF) and Chicago.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        When you're talking Class 3, with a possible 20 years in the grey bar hotel, I don't know if I want to go lower.

            1. Who wrote that headline? “Organized retail to become a Class 3 felony”? It’s missing the word “theft,” it should be “Organized retail theft to become a Class 3 felony.”

            2. Why the qualification “… with the intent to sell the stolen goods for profit“? Exceptions for hot food and money that cannot or does not need to be resold? Should there be different rules if you steal a new Armani suit or a new Louis Vuitton bag to attend your kid’s graduation rather than reselling them right away? Different rule still if you play Robin Hood? There probably is a good reason for that clause but the reporter has not report what that is.

                The wonderful thing about English is that it is a living language.

                      I'd have to turn into the Illustrated Man for that to happen. 😄 Seriously though, I've had the idea for about 5 years now, so, why not.
