The decline from democracy to tyranny is both a natural and inevitable one.
Folks walking in, folks walking out, folks walking around.
???
The name is LEE!
<< <i>What the heck did I just waste my time watching!?? >>
One thing i have learned here....NEVER CLICK LINKS !!!!
Did the deed on Saturday.
I assume the younger male in the Friday video was the thief on Saturday.
Looked to me like he took an entire case and waved goodbye to someone on the way out.
Then he went back for seconds.
I only have watched it once so I may be missing some details.
Thiefs S#*K. Lowest of the low.
"If I say something in the woods and my wife isn't there to hear it.....am I still wrong?"
My Washington Quarter Registry set...in progress
Looks like the typical case most dealers display stuff in..........
The guy comes into show with a small hand truck or wheeled luggage carrier and he leaves with a display case.
Watch the 2:40 mark til finish.
EVERYONE SHOULD NOTE GIRL WITH LARGE TATOO ON UPPER ARM.............that is something easy to remember.
I have no idea what that video is all about?
<< <i>I have no idea what that video is all about? >>
The girl + guy with the over the shoulder bags, on the phones, are casing the joint, dude in hat takes the display case out on a roller.
"So where'd you get this ? ". It was just a standard question. The last time we laughed when he said, "man Joe you think I'm a thief, don't you ?"
I said, "I just think your shiftier than a ___ house rat, Lee… but I still love you man". He said, "yeah yeah, I still love you too.". And I said, "You behave yourself, Lee".
And he said, "I always do".
RIP, Lee.
tales from the crypt: "O"
I guess the moral of the story is like my mom always said; " You make your bed. You sleep in it".

<< <i>For those who didn't take the time to watch the whole video, at the end of it, one of the thieves appears to walk away with the entire case of coins (case included) >>
And you can tell from that grainy video that this was the same case?
I can't.
The name is LEE!
That's a sweet hat!
