I thought you were talking about the alcohol when I first saw
this, thought damn, people be getting desperate. After trying to
look that up, yeah, these are damn expensive coats and would be
easy to jack but that is an all new level of low

This is no time to be flaunting your expensive shit, because
this is what happens. The few rule breakers end up ruining
things for everyone.

Another story I read on this had one man who said he took the
patch logo off the coat and hasn't been bothered at all. Another
person said there was no way they were taking the logo off the
coat because they had paid too much for it. The second person is
afraid to wear their coat, but the 1st person has absolutely no
problem. It's a very recognizable logo and that is more than
likely what the thieves are looking for.

more than my rent!
