Theft!


Shoplifting!

I think that shoplifting is no different to any kind of theft as you are still stealing. However, it may seem to some as being less of an offence to shoplift than to steal, say for instance a car or something of high value. Although, shoplifting should still be seen as a crime no matter how much is stolen or what is stolen as it still affects a person's life. If someone was to steal from a small shop it would seem that you are affecting somebodies livelyhood, but some may say if someone was to steal from a large retail shop then it may not seem so bad as they may be albe to recover the amount lost.
I think people who can afford something shoplift because they may get an adrenalin rush or a feeling of excitemnet from doing it. They may also feel its the excitement of wheter or not they will get caught doing it and hat might happen if thy do. Although, if they don't get caught they may just continue shoplifting for the excitement and then become addicted to it.
