    I hope they get caught and charged. I wouldn't want them to get shot, but I do want them to have to pay the consequences.

    Yes I agree. I thought that was sad ending for such a young person. I definitely don't want anyone to die. My husband's brother was murdered by his wife so I totally understand. I just wish people would not do bad things.
    Please pray for my family.
    Please keep Elizabeth in your prayers. She lost her Father on 2/19/2012.
    MOD for Expired Coupons,
    Let the Lord have his way. If prayer is needed please pm me as I love to pray for others:)

    WOW!
    In no way shape or form do I think that a human life is worth taking for a robbery. A teen especially. Many teenagers have done some really stupid things and then changed their lives around and made a difference in society. Some have even gone on to help change other peoples lives by their story. I sure hope you find it in your heart someday to not wish such things on people because having such a hateful attitude will cause much hardship in your life.

    OP, I'm so sorry to hear that you are having to go through this. Starting a new company is hard enough in itself.
    Please keep us up on what's happening & I pray that they find your equipment & the person(s) that did this.

    I don't think Shellyf is really having a hateful death wish against people. I just think she was talking about Karma and "If you play with fire, you're going to get burned."

    That is what I was thinking, too.

Our city sucks though... police probably don't even know the protocol.

    Sure is, but it's not as easy as you think. First of all, the pawn shop doesn't know they're receiving stolen property. It's not like the robbers walk in there and say, "Hey, I just stole this computer and want to pawn it." Secondly, how can you prove that the items in their store are yours if you don't have it marked and documented somehow?

    I know a rope wouldn't be easy to mark but could the other equipment be marked with a serial number or initials of your business so that the equipment could easily be identified as yours if found?
