Just read in the news exactly why our electric power was disrupted yesterday for almost two hours . . . Someone broke into one of the power substations and stole all the copper wiring! It caused power outages in over 25,000 homes in our city and on a record heat day, too.
You know, we can't be the judges but it seems to me that sin is more or less depending on how many people it affects and putting 25,000 households in that position for that length of time has to expand the crime of that sin greatly. I'm sure there were elderly involved, people with medical support systems, etc. who had an extra hard time dealing without power and air conditioning for that space of time.
It is sad how much we have turned into a self-serving world where people can steal what they want, when they want it, and because they want it without a thought for the other person. You have to wonder who these thieves will call when someone breaks into their house someday?
