Fort Worth Police are Looking for a Coward Who Stole Girl Scout Cookie Money

I've said it a thousand times, there is nothing worse than a thief in Texas. It's one of the Ten Commandments, even, "Thou Shalt Not Steal." But there are people out there who still believe it's right to take what isn't theirs from someone else. I don't care what the reason, excuse, is, it's not right, it's not cool, it's not something that earns respect, it's not something to be proud of. When you do it the way this Fort Worth, Texas man did, you can't call yourself a man, you will forever be known as a coward.

Girl Scout Cookies

It's that time of year when Girl Scout troops will be set up in front of Walmart or a grocery store or other high traffic area selling those cookies most of us cannot resist. We did it in our household recently, a box of Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs and Lemon-Ups. We enjoyed every bite and it was cool to see the smile on the girl's face as she made the sale. Plus, she's learning some basic lessons of how to run a business.

Theft in Fort Worth
