I saw this on the evening news yesterday & thought...Good for him!!! In New York....

A truck received 40 gals of gas yesterday which costed 150 bucks to fill up his tank. Well the trucker took off without paying. It was videoed but the plate no. was wrong. LOL

I thought that was too funny. Normally I don't condone stealing but these gas prices are nothing less than theft.

If everybody in the US racked up thousands on diffrent gas credit cards, then refused to pay, maybe then the'd see the light....

...and dont worry about the credit ratings companies.... they'd have to come up with a new ratings system for the entire US laugh

...just make sure to put that gas money aside and eventually pay...:tongue:

the reason for the boston tea party was not for personal gain

the theft of this fuel was for personal gain

thus not a good comparison

now if he blew up the tanker full of fuel then maybe it would be a close comparison

but to condone theft or even terrorist acts is not a good testimony for ones beliefs

The Boston Tea Party was for the good (gain) of all... not personal....... and so far as the tanker is concerned.... "hmmmmm" drinker Of course we'll have to notify all the illegal aliens in the hold to evacuate first...laugh

It's a sure bet that it was not a big oil company that took that loss.

The guy out there trying to feed his family looses not only his tiny profit, He also has to pay for the lost product. Yah that's funny.
