BassPro Got Robbed

I copy/pasted from the news site, you fixed it for them, not me

Correct. I will now "fix that for you."

So tired of the media agenda regarding AR's. "High powered assault rifle" is inaccurate and just yellow journalism. Get your facts straight.

Fox 31 is the National Enquirer and Star Magazine of Denver news stations. If a local station is going to get it wrong it's Fox 31.

Just think..... If the AR-15 was illegal, they never would have been stolen in the first place.

I don't even know why anyone would want or need to own one of those Glock assault rifles.

Wait were they robbed or burglarized

Robbery
Robbery is defined by the law as taking or trying to take something from someone that has value by utilizing intimidation, force or threat. In order for robbery to take place, a victim must be present at the scene and can occur with a single victim or, in cases like bank hold ups, multiple victims.

Burglary
Burglary is defined by the law as the unlawful entry to a structure to commit theft or a felony. In order for burglary to take place, a victim does not have to be present. When a burglary takes place, the structure being unlawfully entered can be any number of building types including business offices, personal homes and even garden sheds. Burglary is not the term used for crimes committed on cars.

Yep, drives me crazy when I hear it used the other way, but I never really say anything as most people don't know the difference.

Figured it would bother some of the LEO guys around. They are not the same thing

This shouldn't have happened. We have mandatory bgc's now. How could the thieves walk out of there without doing a bgc? Isn't it "mandatory"?

We need more laws.

It's an inside job, who cares. The media will hype anything gun related

[wyome]

Wonder if they got any sweet Bass Pro hoodies while they were there...

[Gman]

Oh....now the PD is backtracking...

The thieves didn't steal any AR-15s, just some hunting rifles and a shotgun.
