Double-swiping the rewards card led to free gas for months — and a felony theft charge
apnews.com

A Nebraska woman allegedly found a lucrative quirk at a gas station pump — double-swipe the rewards card and get free gas!

Unfortunately for her, you can’t do that, prosecutors said. The 45-year-old woman was arrested March 6 and faces felony theft charges accusing her of a crime that cost the gas station nearly $28,000.

Prosecutors say the woman exploited the system over a period of several months. Police learned of the problem in October when the loss-prevention manager at Bosselman Enterprises reported that the company’s Pump & Pantry in Lincoln had been scammed.

if you can't organize well enough to handle a local sheriff's department, you're pathetic. give me 5 well-armed and coordinated individuals and i'll show you how to make the bastards scared of us.

EDIT: Lemmy is full of little bitch cowards and i'm not going to lose any sleep over the dystopia you limp-wristed fucks inherit.

Violence isn't a way to solve this problem, it would only justify the use of force which the police/military are most willing to do. Fascism develops faster in the face of violence as a way to justify itself.

That poster literally told me that being rational was bad. They are beyond gone.
