Good video.
On the previews at the end they had an even more cold-hearted one, stealing one from a baby:
Old Man Steals iPhone From Baby - Caught on Video - YouTube
My son comes home and tells me there is a boy at his school that will sell cell phones for $5.00, and he has been, "collecting" them since he was four.
I told him he should be suspicious of such stories, that they are probably, "hot." I had to explain the concept of stolen merchandise to him, and what can happen to you if you get caught with it. Apparently, schools are prime areas for kids to sell black market phones, since lots of parents are like me, they see no reason why pre-teens need cell phones. Also, the kids that don't have them feel they must have them, even though they can't justify a need for them.
Our schools are laboratories for producing little consumers and are just as culpable for pressuring some to become industrious little thieves. Many children, (abetted by the lack of moral guidance at home, or with similar temporal attitudes at home,) believe life is about the garnering of material status symbols. How are they acquired? Well, that really doesn't matter. I suppose any way they can "find them." Especially when the government gives out so much free stuff anyway.
When he confronted this kid about how a twelve year old acquired so many cell phones, the story related to me would change every day my son got home. And each day was as outlandish as the next.
Does anyone really drop cell phones off at the Salvation Army?And what kid buys them there?

When the school bus driver drops your kids off at the bus stop 15 minutes early without telling anyone, then you will see a need for cell phones.

That never happened when I was at school. Of course, that was so long ago, mobile phones were a new invention and they were a luxury item...
