Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 To me, this is more about what's proffered as "news". It was one of the leads from the Associated Press as well as our local umm... "news" outlet. I'm thinkin' there just has be something more important to write about.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 The thief was an accredited member of the international news media who had done obviously done this many times. It is known that he did this sort of crime three times. The understory is that he did it 20 or 30 times and the only items that he could not sell on the black market were one donkeys helmet and two Brady jerseys because there are so many Brady haters in the world.

Folks hereabouts get all wound up about the theft of $1000 worth of pistols from their car outside a motel, and start a national search for matching serial numbers at local pawn shops throughout the area; More than one Cowboy has shouted "Git a rope!" when some relatively petty crime is reported on the Wire; Here, $500,000 - $800,000 of memorabilia is stolen in the US, and transported across the border; in the words of the Texas Rangers involved, it was a "matter of national pride" to find the perp and recover the goods. Doesn't matter if its football jerseys or diamond rings or fancy sports cars; it's extremely valuable property, and the police and the Rangers and the FBI (when international movement of stolen goods is involved) have a sworn duty to enforce the law, apprehend the criminal(s) and, if possible, recover the goods. Set aside your disinterest in pro sports, or your misplaced distaste for all things Brady; he was the victim of a rather stupendous property crime, and the lawmen did their jobs. Hurray! LL I have no problem with law enforcement resources being used to pursue the theft of a valuable piece of property. My issue is the "value" that our society has placed upon the jersey. Kind of sad really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Future date: COngressional Budget Hearings: congressman: Director, what has the FBI done for us lately about international terrorism? FBI Director: We found Tom Brady's jersey. The public was terrified that they return to their lockers after a workout and be missing a critical item of apparel.
