Boot to groin: March 22, 1995

Re: A kick in the crotch, March 15

Mr. Coleman should have mentioned that he deserved to have his hot bike stolen. So he felt sad when he lost his 26 pound “beautiful baby?” The legal owner, who may be a poor fellow student, is probably much sadder.

Also, it would have been nice if he had pointed out that idiots who buy stolen goods encourage other idiots to turn to crime. Circles of idiots end up costing everybody (i.e. higher insurance rates, expensive theft prevention devices, more cops, etc.)

So thanks for the helpful hints, Coleman, but you’re a big part of the problem.
