Mike at Vauxhall Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 In the absence of stricter anti-theft laws, I'm going for a different approach. I really feel my disapproval of their lifestyle choices should dissuade them from criminality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petercoulson Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Olde Worlde spelling? Distain is an archaic word not listed in all dictionaries. It meant for something to be stained or disgraced. However, generally it is most often seen in publications as a misspelling of disdain.

mrkeys Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Most shoplifters wont be able to read that word, and for the few that can they will more than likely thing they are getting a reward I would take it down if I were you buddy Or at least change it to something like Sharia Law will be applied to shoplifters in this store Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
