why exactly is his car different from a phone, or a laptop?

Are you seriously on slashdot posting that stupid of a question? Quantity might have something to do with it.

Faculty is supposed to be there. Parents are not authorized to roam around randomly at any school in the nation without prior authorization from the office.

And when he was told multiple times to stop ... but kept doing it ... oh, thats okay right? Because its on a building paid for by public funds, anyone can use that power.

Shit, why do I even pay my own electric bill. I'm right next door to a school, a few hundred feet of good quality wire and I can just use all the free public electricity I want, right? I mean thats what you're saying, right? Its perfectly acceptable for all of us to hook up to those outlets and then bitch when they blow and demand better service ... right?

God you're a moron.

Schools are not 'public' buildings, sorry to burst your ignorance bubble. They are for students registered in them to be at certain times of the day. Students can not freely roam schools whenever they want.

PARENTS MUST VISIT THE OFFICE AND REGISTER OR BE GIVEN EXPLICITLY PERMISSION IN ADVANCE IN EVERY SCHOOL IN THE NATION FOR SECURITY PURPOSES. It has been this way for years.

You are not allowed to take the computers that are in the building ... paid for by public funds. You are not allowed to walk into the cafeteria at 1am and make yourself a snack. You are not allow to take a fucking desk because you paid your taxes.

The problem is your stupid thought that these are public buildings that anyone can do anything they want with. Thats as retarded as saying that its okay for me to take every book in a library and keep it at my house forever since I paid my taxes and its public property.

You fucks with your 'I'm entitled to everything' mentality need to get a freaking clue.

The drinking fountain IS NOT THERE FOR PUBLIC USE. Its there for STUDENT USE. You're just ignorant of reality and assume that you too are entitled to use it. You're wrong.

There is no problem with clarity, you're just an idiot who hasn't learned that you're not entitled to take whatever you want.

Notice that in this case the school did not press charges, implying that the school didn't mind the use, or at least judged it to be harmless enough.

... So, you didn't read any of the actual article at all did you ... you know ... the part where the cop ASKED THE SCHOOL IF THEY WANTED TO DO ANYTHING AND ONLY AFTER THAT DID THEY ARREST THIS JACKASS?

But hey, don't let facts get in the way.

You guys and your jurisdiction ignorance.

Cops generally can go after crime regardless of what jurisdiction it is in. Contrary to the silly movies you think are real, there is none of this shit about not being able to cross state lines, counties or cities. They in fact do it rather regularly between GA and SC.

They may have a more difficult time handling the case if questions arise, but you're an idiot if you think a cop needs permission to do something in some parking lot in the town he's employed by. It doesn't work that way.

Any cop in GA can operate ANYWHERE in GA. An atlanta cop can drag your ass to jail in columbus if he wants to.

You really need to lay off the ignorance and tv.

If the EV owner has a child at the school, then he might very well have reasonable belief that he could use the electricity since he's technically paying for it.

EVERYONE pays for schools, not just parents. Thats why we can afford to send our kids to school because society as a whole pays for the service. So no, this jackass had no more right to steal electricity from the school than I do have the right to steal food from the cafeteria or footballs from the gym.

Wrong in every possible way.

You can not put a 40 amp breaker on a line with a 10 amp outlet. It is illegal and dangerous. Normal outlets, are 10 amp outlets. $100 says you've never used an outlet capable of carrying 40 amps other than your washer/drawer/stove. My shitty 30 year old fridge is a 30amp. I doubt you could point one out in a line up without me telling you first.

Sure, you can physically do it, if your a moron too stupid to be playing around in the electrical box in the first place. You'll probably be electrocuted due to your own stupidity pretty quickly with that kind of ignorance.

A 10 amp breaker will easily blow at 8 if its got any age on it, they are designed to failSAFE not carry more than intended. Yes, they may be slow acting, but you are pushing a 10 amp breaker if you put a continuous 8amp draw on it. Its perfectly within spec, but safety margins are going to cause it to blow sooner rather than later.

Outlets have to match breakers.

A 50, 30, 20 and 10 amp outlet ALL look different. Only the a plug designed for a 10 amp outlet can be plugged into a 20 amp outlet, all others are intentionally incompatible with each other. You can not plug a 40 amp plug into a 30 amp outlet, or a 30 amp plug into 20 or 10 amp outlet. You can't even plug a 20 amp plug into a 10 amp outlet. They are designed to keep morons like you from burning your houses down because you're dumb ass does something like swap out a breaker. With a 40 amp breaker, you would be using a 50 amp outlet as there isn't a 40 amp outlet.
