I certainly am not prejudiced against teenagers, I've got one son aged 14, and one aged 11. And they are not perfect, and neither am I. But I don't think that stealing from someone you don't like is OK - that's all.

<But whats amazing to me is an almost immediate reaction by the posters here that "theft is theft" - throw the book at 'em, etc. Where does that come from? Is it because I used the word teenagers in the sentence or something? Theft is NOT theft, at least as far as I can see... unless you apply it unilaterally....>

Well, I agree with you, Lizzie. I will accept that theft is theft when we hold corporations to the same standards of conduct/morality that we expect from teenagers!
