Victoria how about going back to school and getting an education then job with insurance, so our cost does not go up to cover loss due to theft. Many people are in pain, many people are hurting but we can not all disregard the law and do as we please. If you are looking for a place to rob that says Farmacy and sells drugs you'r outta luck lol sad people are in pain I have bad headaches all the time on medication for it that does not work but you do not see me stealing meds, I do not get pain med

Some people are in alot of pain this days and now they cant afford to pay for a bottle of pain pill. Then hit the highway thinking what farmacy is best to rob and get all the pain pill there is so it will last all year round. Because, the pain does not stop there. It continues on and on. Head acke, belly pain, bones that with this freezing rain hurts the more and more. And if you are a diabetic it is worse. The pain continues with tooth ache. I eaten too much candy and there is no food so let us
