That’s weight equivalent of 8 gallons of milk. Not quite class 8 heavy duty equipment required.

Abe’s wife wore make up that weighed more than that.

Thieves. Thieves should have their limbs lopped off when caught. Our society really needs a reset. They do this because they get away with, and if they do get caught, they get probation or another form of a slap on the wrist.
