In criminal law, theft (also known as stealing or filching) is the illegal taking of another person's property without that person's freely-given consent

I don't see how you can call something that leaves you with what you started with theft.

Morally wrong perhaps, that side of your argument I can see.

You can't think of property rights only in physical terms. That is a mistake in this day and age. That is what must change.

This is not about current legal definitions (law) this is about changing those definitions.

I know you can't understand it. That's okay though. I have hope.
