...yes we are looking at the "bigger picture"...a picture of a very big woman who "loves a bit of cake...yeah?"
No one is saying that you are defending her. Its just that the tone of your post sounded as if this "isolated incident" is condonable. Yes it may be an isolated incident, but that doesn't make it tolerable or acceptable. I'm sure there are lots of trolley dollies out there who have committed varying degrees of theft (like my paperclip fetish)....but the point we are trying to make here is that this woman has committed a crime...irrespective of whether it happens everyday or seldom. The fact that she got caught and her lard face has been splashed in the press should act as a warning to all those Unicef theives out there.
