We disagree…
Remember, the theft is about consent or permission. It shouldn’t matter if it’s 1 person, 2 people, or 74,000,000 people forcing you to give up your personal properly. It is still theft and, therefore, still a crime.
If it’s your position that it stops being theft… let me remind you, the difference between these two pictures, is merely the people who are forcing you to give up your personal property.
