QUINCY, Mass. (AP) — Police say a Massachusetts woman robbed a nun at knifepoint and got away with her rosary beads.

Logic 101 - That's not how you get to heaven. Get your own damn beads, and by all means, use them. LOL.

Article is here.

NOTE: Had she gotten away with her crime, and used the beads, would the Nun have gotten the credit, since they were the Nun's beads? In that case, her defense could be that she robbed the Nun out of a sense of altruism. :mrgeen:

She is a piece of **** (work?) for sure:

Vanessa Young, 26, of Somerville, was arrested and charged with armed robbery, assault with a dangerous weapon and breaking and entering daytime to commit a felony.

Three of the cell phones recovered from Vanessa Young were identified as having been stolen during a house break which occurred around the same time on Water Street, police said.

Odd story, I guess they thought the pouch held money, but took the rosary anyway.
Of course if criminals were smart, well they would not be criminals.
 
None of the nuns I knew growing up would have stood for that. They would have whupped that girl till she was begging for mercy. I live in Oaxaca, Mexico, and in 2006 the leftists, the teachers union, and the thugs took over the city for six months. The police disappeared. A half-block south of my home is a Catholic school. All the public schools had been closed by the thugs and one morning as I was standing on my balcony I saw the tugs at the barricade on my street turning students and their parents back. They were closing the Catholic school.

I was up early the next morning. I was on my balcony having a cigarette as the sun came up. Looking south, I saw a platoon of nuns hitting the street. Coming north, a column, two abreast. I looked at the barricade. It was unmanned. Looking north, I saw the thugs, also unmanned, heading north, head for Xochimilco, the next neighborhood to the north. Even murderous leftist thugs don't mess with nuns unless the outnumber then ten to one and have AK-47s.

It was only out of the goodness of her heart that Sister Mary Catherine up in Massachusetts didn't subdue that nitwit and read to her from the good book till she was begging for a police intervention.

Or at least better criminals.

My thinking, is that a smart sociopath, could make lots of money, without crossing the legal boundary.
A completely amoral person, could legally extract money from the system.
Payday loans, title loans, ect are examples of people who prey on those down on the luck.
It is likely not moral, but very profitable.

And, just think, if an amoral sociopath is good enough he can make a lot of money and run for president.

Why did you use a Gender Pronoun, that knife cuts both ways?
 
Because my native language is English and not Libspeak.
Fair enough, I think the amoral sociopath label could be applied to ether candidate for president.

I certainly wouldn't disagree but one has preyed on suckers and the other has been a politician for sale. One bribed politicians and one was a politician taking bribes. I find it incredibly embarrassing that we have those to as the two leading candidates for president.

I agree, if these two are the result of the process, perhaps it is time to reevaluate the process.
 
For you non Catholics out there, the beads themselves are not important other than sentimental value. It's the prayers that go with them that make the difference.

So they not worth getting murdered over. It's a theft, not an assault on the religion.

Perhaps it's time we found our way back to a process that works. Perhaps it's time we tried to follow the Constitution.
