BANGOR, Maine — A Bangor police officer conducting a check of downtown businesses arrested a local transient shortly before 12:30 a.m. Saturday after finding him charging his two cellphones in an outdoor electrical outlet hidden behind some flowers on Harlow Street.

Shaun Fawster, 23, was charged with theft of services as well as with carrying a concealed weapon, Bangor police Lt. Jeff Millard said Tuesday, citing an arrest report.

The report indicated that Fawster had a folding knife tucked underneath his shirt, Millard said.

Fawster, who was taken to Penobscot County Jail after his arrest, since has been released on bail, a jail official confirmed.

    Really.  I mean you’d think at the most the cop would give him a warning and send him on his way.  Oh, and what’s with this ‘transient’ thing, if someone’s homeless, just say homeless.

    Im sorry if this seems rather abrupt but its getting so i can’t even take reading the paper anymore without losing my dam lunch. This has to be a joke or something, come on already whats the punch line? They arrest a homeless guy for charging his phones on an outside receptacle. That is so wrong in so many ways i can’t even express it. What the heck is happening in this world, i am so appalled and disgusted on so many levels…..Take this as you may but its almost to a point where one could almost be embarrassed to be an american.

  • Anonymous

    The reason for the arrest, is that with the folding knife, the charge will be upgraded to felonious aggravated double cellular telephone recharging.

  • Anonymous

    Oh come on, this is getting ridiculous. Yes, maybe he should have asked permission to charge his phones but really arrested and unless his pocket knife was an illegal knife …………….. I guess I had better be careful when and “IF” I shop in Bangor because I always carry a folding pocket knife.

    A lot of the time a family member provides a cell phone to homeless people, especially when they are young and have parents who worry about them.  Lots of homeless people have jobs or are looking for one and need a phone.  When you don’t have a home you don’t have a land line so potential employers or landlords can contact you to offer you a job or place to live.  Having a prepaid cell phone when you are homeless is like having a land line when you actually have a place to live.

    There is a federal program where low income people get a free cell phone or two with 250 minutes a month. We pay for it. I would guess homeless means your income qualifies you for the program

    yeah like the amount of power he used from the open unlocked acessible receptical is worth what 2 cents or less? What does that get you – time in jail free meals at taxpayer expense of what hundreds?

    So if you carry a pocket knife you have a concealed weapon

    Thank goodness the transient wasnt texting and driving.

    I always carry my small Gerber clipped inside my front pocket. A lot of people remove the clip. Maybe if I make sure the clip shows it won’t be considered concealed. What’s with the rash of pocket knives being called concealed weapons. Are we extending federal airline rules to the general public?

    Only if you have two arms!

     That is the Safe Link Program.  To qualify you must be getting some form of State assistance such as food stamps or MaineCaire.  In order to qualify you have to provide a shipping address.  There is a limit, only one phone per household.  Also, the person is not allowed to have a subsidized home phone and a Safe Link phone.

    well my favorite topics pops up again.. cops.. doing what they do…protecting the community.. Richardson below, has it right.. tell the dude to pull the plug and move along.. a folding knife used to mean a pocket knife,or a jack knife. ,,, used for tons of different things, but a far cry from a weapon, who the heck is training these bozos anyway… so it ‘s against the law in Bangor Maine to carry a jack knife… how about a spoon ? or a tooth pick… ? ugh

    Wow. Bangor cops have WAY too much time on their hands. His action perhaps cost the city a fraction of a cent in electricity.

    On another note, this guy might be on welfare and our tax dollars might be paying for his TWO cell phones and their monthly bills. 

    Can’t fault the guy for carrying a knife. With the increase of crime in Bangor, if I lived on the street here I’d be carrying a weapon, too!

    Higher crime, more sex offenders (more than any other city in the state, including Portland), and ridiculously high taxes are the three main reasons we’re moving.

    He must never have gone to kindergarten.  ‘Don’t take what doesn’t belong to you’ was taught early on.  For those who think that  this was ok let me suggest that every time you purchase something you pay more than the item cost. Whatever amount that the seller stiffs you for you have to pay.  It may have been .12 this time. At what point will you complain?

    I would think that at the point that it isn’t a minimal amount. really. charging a cellphone isn’t really costing squat. I could see if he was using some major amount of electricity. but you must in some way think that this is a little absurd. 

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=512104869 Roy Blenkhorn

    Power = Voltage * Current =
    (average charger uses)5V * 0.8A = 4W 

    The average person leaves there phone plugged in over night so lets assume 8 hours

    At full power for 8 hours your charger would use approximately 30 watts of power.

    At 15.54 cents per kilowatt hour, that is a little less than one half cent.

    who are you to judge this person? these were possibly trac phones that you buy minutes for. What difference would it make if this was some middle class person who had recently lost his job and had his lights disconnected for non payment and chose to go out in the cover of night to charge his phone so he would not be seen by his peers and judged.

    No, it’s not absurd.  Not until you decide what “squat” is.   And, at which point do the police get involved.   When someone steals your car and the cop doesn’t think it amounts to squat, then you have no one to blame but yourself.   You steal a penny from me, it’s stealing, no matter how you look at it.

    Sad use of police time if you asked me.  My father an immigrant from Italy who never spoke Italian in this country and even changed is birthday from 14 to 4 July to be more American was once arrested for bootlegging home made wine. Since that was permitted for heads of household to make wine, upon search police found a small pocketknife. He was jailed for the first and last time in his life for caring a concealed weapon. Some things never change.

    You do realize that they might not have even been Safe Link phones right?  They could have been the ones you pick up at wal-mart.   Perhaps at one point he had a job…maybe he did really well and was super successful.   Then maybe one day his company down-sized…or even closed.    You need to walk a mile in a person’s shoes before you pass judgement on them.

    How do you know the state is paying for it?  Maybe he had income at one time and bought them at wal-mart….maybe his family gets him cards to use with them.  If you have no idea what situation a person is in you really should not judge them

    let me entertain an idea for you.  It is less costly to the State of Maine to let a homeless man charge his cell phone outside (that they may or may not have paid for) than for them to put him in jail.  Have you looked up the cost of staying in jail for just a day?  It’s about $75-80… And if you’re homeless, is the State of Maine REALLY taking care of you?

    “Transient” and “homeless” are two different things. A transient is one who staying or working at a place for a short time and trust me, there are PLENTY of them, especially around the Bangor area. They stick out like sore thumbs.

    I do have to state, however, that I disagree with the charges. It should have just been a warning.

    Now … this makes sense … we give billions in bailout to corporations; reduce millions / billions in tax cuts to the millionaires and billionaires; but, we’ll arrest the homeless guy for charging his phone (electricity costs … USD0.15 / kwh?). And concealed weapon? That folding knife for all you know is used to prepare his food. He’s HOMELESS, where else can he keep his kitchen knife? GOP state … ladies and gentleman!!!

  • http://twitter.com/bulldogpi James Pollock

    The folding knife is another issue, but I would think that the Bangor Maine police department would have something better to do then arrest a homeless person for “theft” of approximately 5 cents or less of electricity to charge his cell phone.  If it will appease the situation, I’ll mail a money order for $5.00 in compensation to the business in question.  That should cover the electrical expenses for quite a while.

    what is going on with all these knife charges, last time I checked it wasn’t illegal to have a knife. Im actually scared that Im going to be arrested next time I leave sears with a set of steak knives. Ican walk into a gun shop and leave with a glock 40 but I cant have a pocket knife. but he should be forced to pay the 2.00 to the owner for the electricity he stole.

    If you’re in the right class of people, it’s apparently okay to still millions or billions from innocent taxpayers, but if you’re not one of the super-rich or well-connected, stealing a few cents worth of electricity will get you thrown in jail. Now, what kind of message is that to send to in a so-called free and democratic society? We used to be like a shining city on a hill — an example for other nations to follow. Not so much anymore.

    I get it…the cop overreacted. He was stupid, but…I think the real question(s) here should be:

    Why does a homeless man have 2 cell phones?

    Why not just one?

    How does he pay the bills?

    Are we paying the bills?

    Couldn’t the money he’s spending on his cell phones and plans pay for rent…low income housing perhaps?

    How much is he stealing from taxpayers to pay for 2 cell phones and bills and still get free food or board from the local homeless shelter?

    Just food for thought. Bon apetit!

    This guy probably had a house until he lost it all at Hollywood Slots.

    HaDeZ – I totally agree with every point you wrote, but I have to ask: What is a “dam lunch?”  Do you work at a dam?  Or is there a restaurant or chuck wagon near or at a dam?  Is it only when you have dam-related food that you almost lose it?  Just wondering, it’s not like I really give a damn.

    More and more it seems like our police fail and fail to exercise good judgement while going about their duties. At least he didn’t see the pocketknife and shoot the guy.

    maybe he’s the murderer? hmm…i wonder if the knife had blood on it or something. otherwise, it’s absurd to arrest someone for carrying a pocket knife.

     I believe that the person robbed (ie. business owner) would have to file the charges.  When the police found a travel trailer outside my business they asked me if I wanted him charged and I said, “only if he was embezzling electricity from me.  He had taken about 140 Kw without permission or reimbursement.

    Ever see the “universal access fee” on your cell bill?  You pay for free phones for low/no income people, under the project known as “Safelink.”   The feds mandated that the telecom companies provide this service, but allowed them to pass the cost on to their customers.  So, in a round-about way, it’s a tax.  I’ll not comment on whether it’s a good or a bad idea, but there it is.

    Just had a thought. Maybe the weather was a little nasty and the cop basically said, “hey, if you want I can write you up on a B.S. charge and give you a warm dry place to sleep tonight and breakfast in the morning”…..yep, that could be. I mean that makes more sense than cop arresting him like some Barney Fife rookie.

    With out a phone you can’t call 911. If he had a home and that knife were in his kitchen would he have a concealed weapon? If the phones don’t have calling plans they can still call 911. I’m not sure I could get by for long without a knife either. It’s a tool to open things, cut things etc. Why didn’t he just plug the phone chargers into the outlets at home. Oh, wait, he’s homeless. Let’s see, suppose he lives as long as the average homeless person in America, 7 years. $0.005 X 365 X 7 = $12.775 ~ $12.78 . Yeah, you guys have your priorities straight. That’s almost $13.00 he’ll steal in electricity during his entire homeless life so he can call 911. Let’s spend $100.00 a night and keep monsters like this off the streets. Just don’t expect him to call 911 for you when you need it.

    Really? So a pocket knife is considered a concealed  weapon? Jackasses!  it’s called a POCKET knife for a reason! And you can buy them at Walmart! Not to mention who hasn’t used an outlet at an airport to plug in their computer? Was there a notice posted anywhere? He’s obviously homeless for a reason. Blame the crappy economy before you charge someone with a petty, victimless crime. He probably won’t even be able to afford the costs and will end up having a warrant for his arrest.

    We are missing an essential element of the crime (theft), a victim!  The police can not charge him with theft unless the owner of the store is wanting to press charges- if the officer came up with this on his own,  this will be easily dismissed by the judge.

  • Jason Carroll

    actually..  yea, i thought that seemed wrong for a phone charger. if you want to know the power usage, you need to examine the power INPUT because the transformer and other circuitry may make the charger not 100% efficient. my phone charger uses 0.15A at 120VAC input (if yours uses 5V input [is that DC or AC??] then you must have a special one hehe).  the INPUT power is therefore 18 Watts per hour (assuming 100% power factor). at 8 hours that would be 144 watts (or volt-amps since 1.0 pf).  

  • Jason Carroll

    my gosh… 15.54 cents per kw-hr ?? that is so high. im used to more like around 9-10 cents per kw-hr…. wow… say 15.54 x 144 x 0.001 … then that is 0.03 (the utility always rounds up bless their heart).

    Tha Banksters and the MIC/Pentagon can literally STEAL TRILLIONS, and never even hear a threat of arrest. Yet a homeless person who is having some difficulty, be it drugs, alcohol, or some other poor choice gets jailed?

    Let me see who benefits from this? Oh yeah, the CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM … Must be some desperate times there in Maine.

    btw, I’m a nine year military veteran, and a former successful entrepreneur, in addition spent many years as an inspector in the Aerospace industry. I began having seizures in 2009. A total of four to date. Not only did a LEGAL medication cause me to be so far from my norm, the TAKEOVER (not side) effects led to homelessness for me. I charged my phone similiarly to this persone over the two years+ it took to sort out that I was simply HYPOGLYCEMIC!!!

    And yes, Medical science was completely inept in making a determination. Essentially I stumbled upon it …

    Point is, you simply cannot judge by appearances or actions the character of a person and heave stones and insults unless you are prepared to walk more than a mile in their shoes …

    I have no problem with this.  Utilities costs money.  It would be like washing your car with a stranger’s hose and faucet.  Most people would not expect to go to be arrested for doing this, but most would also recognize that were acting on the shady side of right & wrong.  Police have broad discretion, and it is reasonable to assume that the arresting officer was doing his best to serve & protect.

    All you guys saying tell him to pull the plug and move along, how would you feel if it was your business and every night you had homeless people hanging out around it to steel electricity? I’ll let you in on a hint, homeless people aren’t clean, and they tend to steal more than electricity. Obviously the guy knew where the plug was hidden so he probably has done this before. Cops doing his job, if he sent him on the way the guy would be back the next night. Now they will all be wary about it.

    This has to be just about as ridiculous as the children that were cited by police for running lemonade stands or homeowners for flying the American flag in their front yard. I know employees that use their organization’s outlets to charge their cell phones. I would consider the guy as resilient and resourceful in using the resources of their surrounding environment.

    why are those the real questions. its now illegal to have more than one means of communicating?

    I want to know how Obama is paying the stimulus bills he has racked up. (crikets churping)

    Yes of course we are paying the bills… unless we just default on our debt (we have done that before as a nation actually)

    Its actually quite hard to get low income housing. if you havent seen the news, the lines are long and filled with people like multi-millionaires, stripers, and drug dealers that really shouldnt be there.

    if he is getting soemthing for free (in jail with food and warm bed) then he is not “stealing” anything. so quit libelling this poor man.

    I cannot believe how many comments that I have read that asks why it is illegal to have two cell phones. Did anyone actually read the article?! It’s about someone -tresspassing- and -stealing- electric. So, those who complain about the costs of the stolen goods (elec), let me get this straight. If someone steals something from you the police should determine if its “worth it” to go after the bad guys. Think about what you promote and what kind of world you’re asking for before you speak. The man was arrested because he did a crime. It serves as an example to anyone else who would steal, no matter what the value.

    Don’t you realize that cops LOOK for this type of ‘offense’ because first, they get to use their neat toys (e.g. handcuffs, siren and/or lights, and maybe some Mace or their taser) and second, they get to spend time at the station processing the ‘criminal’ thereby avoiding having to be out doing their real jobs. Maybe this country just has a few too many police officers …

    Don’t you realize that cops LOOK for this type of ‘offense’ because first, they get to use their neat toys (e.g. handcuffs, siren and/or lights, and maybe some Mace or their taser) and second, they get to spend time at the station processing the ‘criminal’ thereby avoiding having to be out doing their real jobs. Maybe this country just has a few too many police officers …

    In terms of the actual cost, 100mW*120V input is 12 watts.  Two phones at one hour is about a quarter of a cent for a one hour charge at a dime a kWhr. Two phones or not, that is not the lap of luxury, or a measurable theft.  Perhaps he might have asked permission to plug in, as I would have been inclned to do, but that is not always possible either. Also, if I were on the street, I would consider myself a fool not to carry at least one good knife to defend myself and cut bread or an apple on occasion. It would have been a different matter if he had brandished it.   What kind of people, or society, have we become,  that we would make such an issue of these things? We have, in contrast, become entirely oblivious to untold trillions being bled from our country.  Even the people of 1939 Berlin were not so out of phase with reality.

    Can someone post the address of the business that the electrical outlet is registered to.  I will be glad to send them a nickle for the cost of the electricity.  Also, when did the possession of a pocket knife become a crime?    $10 bucks says you can still buy them at a whole lot of stores and they are not considered as weapons that have to be registered.

    So the police are now corporate profit enforcers, try to tell me there is no class war.

    A more decent person would have perhaps offered the homeless man a sandwich, but cops are hearless corporate stools.

    Until police stand up and out these kind of cops instead of protecting them, they will not be respected by the public.

    They go after the low hanging fruit, while criminals who destroy millions of lives, live with impunity. and laugh as cops arrest the poor for simply being poor.

    Did anybody ask the owner of the receptacle if he considered it theft, or if he put it there for the purpose of helping the homeless?

    If he doesn’t want people to use it, he can shut if off from the breaker or install a switch or cover it with a plate etc.

    Clearly trying to justify this kind of tax money wasted creating crime instead of doing his job is a clear indication of the quality of policing.

    Taxpayers should be angry over the waste of money.

    I do believe tough on crime created through legislation is a right wing death squad type of thing. Social beings tend to help, its the ignorant right who supports “death squads” like in Chile, Colombia etc…and prey on the poor and the weak on behalf their elite debt slave masters.

    I am particularly disturbed by the hidden weapon charge, I only hope that homeless people aren’t walking around with folding pocket knives. We need to ban all sharp objects in the country, from wood chisels to butter knives. Remember all the 9-11 terrorist were armed with box cutters.

    I am however pleased to see that Bangor Maine has no other crime problems and now can concentrate on the really big stuff, like theft of a few pennies worth of electricity.

    The damage is done, and the taxpayers get the bill courtesy on ignorant cop, who is going to hold him accountable for his bad judgement?

    Seems higher up the chain we go, the less accountable people are, but the homeless must be held to account for stealing fractions of a penny, even if it costs thousands.

    First of all, carrying a folding knife seems like a good idea. Why should anyone be a soft target for those who may mean you harm? Are we supposed to just allow people to roll us for whatever and whenever they want?
    Second, although arresting this man for just the charging of cell phones seems like overkill, a warning would have been a better idea as well as cheaper for the tax payers. 
    Finally, perhaps he can make this into an entrepreneurial bonanza and create a safe and simple recharge station for this without access to their own electricity. Certainly it couldn’t cost very much to charge a phone, and even the homeless may find a way to come up with fifty cents a day for a phone charge?
    Just speaking freely and trying to come up with solutions.

    The faster the homeless person finds a job the less the state has to pay. You need a phone to have employers contact you. You need a phone to apply for anything. The problem with people like you is, you cut every possible hope for people then you ridicule and hate them for being so low. You’re absolutely clueless.

    The police officer should resign for his stupidity, maybe the cost of charging a phone is 1 cent, but it cost the taxpayers at least $1000. for this mindless event. The weapon was not concealed since the man was in his “home”.  Remember police are public servants whether rich or poor.

    Someone kicked in our door while we were at work a few weeks ago.  Not really a lot worth stealing, but they went right to the jewelry box.  That really didn’t hold much of value – mostly items like my granparents’ wedding rings – but they snatched and ran.

    The police acted like I was imposing on them when I called to report it…showed up a few hours later…didn’t take photos or fingerprints.

    I was raised to respect the police, and by & large do – I think most cops start out wanting to help folks – but it is wearing work, and the culture is not the best.

    Solo, I didn’t say he should have ended up in jail, but was merely pointing out that YES, the man was indeed committing a crime.  I’m tired of people who want to gloss over crimes being committed by those that they some how feel got a short shrift in life.  For example many folks who claim that there are a bunch of “law-abiding” illegals in the country.  Criminals, everyone of them, even if they haven’t so much as jaywalked since arriving here.  You may not like that fact, but a crime is a crime.

    And yes, the jail cost for this electricity bandit is a ridiculous waste of taxpayer money, for the record.

    Look at lady justice and notice the balance she is carrying. It is there to remind people that while they demonize some poor man down on his luck, wallstreet criminals continue to steal with impunity.

Now, you have a functioning phone and charger and you only make outgoing calls- so a 10 dollar phone card could last weeks. Now you have 40 dollars extra for beer.

I think this cop is picking and choosing his fights poorly…and I hope all the other officers let him know how ridiculous he is and now all of the Bangor area knows how ridiculous he is and make fun of him whenever they see him “on his beat”. That will be sweet justice for Lt. Jeff Millard!!  Hard core Criminals plugging their cell phones in a Hidden electrical outlet!!

We call that “stealing” in Western Culture. Now was the cop heavy handed? Probably. Cops usually are. We call that “punk with a badge” in Western Culture. Curious if Officer Oinksalot bothered to ask the owner if they wanted to press charges? The poster above makes a good point when he says the taxpayers are on the hook for the arrest costs! Essentially, this stupid cop just robbed each one of Penobscot County’s workers! Why couldn’t he just issue a citation? They should put him in jail!

    Okay, so if you only steal a little or if you’re down on your luck it’s okay?

    I have no doubt that if he had gone to the library or another pubic facility and asked he probably would have been allowed to charge his phone while he read or worked on a public computer terminal. This is not a victimless crime, if he did not ask permission and did not pay for the electricity he stole it. The officer made the arrest based on when he saw, just like any officer would had the person broken into a home or business. Now it is up to the victim as to whether to pursue charges.

    Well which is it…? Is he local resident or is he a transient? And was it really necessary to call him that name simply to report he was alleged to have been charging “two cellphones”?

    What is the purpose in stating the number of cellphones if he indeed
    owned them? Does this indicate some bias or resentment that the man
    apparently was a local man who was at the same time just passing
    through, but was stationary long enough to begin recharging TWO
    cellphones when most people only have one?

    Is it a class envy thing, or a mean spirited statement to prejudice the
    reader’s who may have a place to live but have only one cell phone?

    And would he have been cited if his “folding knife” had been visible, perhaps tucked in his waistband?

    Finally, was he really being serviced? Or wasn’t what he is charged with closer to shoplifting

    Ok…First of all the charger actually steps down the current and changes it from AC to DC.  

    A transformer either steps up or steps down voltage.  For instance, the transformer on the telephone pole that feeds your house, steps down the line current from 480 VAC to 240 VAC.  The voltage then go from transformer to your house’s Circuit Breaker Panel as L1 and L2 each carrying 120 VAC. This is a simplistic example and of course only covers 2-phase and not 3-phase feeds. 

    A rectifier converts AC to DC.  Most electronic devices (read 99.9%) only can take DC current.  The symbol with a solid line above the dash line stands for DC.  A wave sine symbol stands for AC. 

    Secondly, using the battery of my cell phone and my charger as an example (cell phone battery is 3.7 VDC and the charger output is 5 VDC @ 700mA), you then see that there is a difference in the storage versus draw/demand/load.  However, the 1.3 VDC difference conforms to the Second Law of Thermodynamics and is also expressed in Ohms Law (E=I/R).  In other words, you cannot get energy for free nor can you destroy, it you can only change it, but at a cost.

    So the correct wattage calculation for my situation would be
    to 5*.7=3.5 (P=V*I). 

    And finally, before anyone asks it, no I’m not a Professor.   I just play one on TV.

    This has to be the weakest excuse making in history. If he has a family that cares enough to provide a cell phone, it is my bet that they would be willing to provide a home. “Lots of homeless people have jobs or are looking for one and need a phone”. Wow! Can anybody say, “Bleeding heart?” Jobs pay money. Except for perhaps food, housing is the highest priority for spending your earnings. Paying for a cell phone is so low on the list I cannot find it. Can you provide us with just a few example of why someone needs a cell phone in order to hold a job? Your level of reality equals your user name.

     My neighbor is fully able to work but chooses not to do so.  She is Section 8 and is fully supported by the city (rent, utilities, food stamps, medical care – the works). She also has several people living with her (all unemployed who like to smoke, drink, and do drugs  with their welfare dollars), which is against Section 8 rules. She got “married” in a Wiccan ceremony so the government wouldn’t say she no longer qualified for all the free money. There’s no “bad luck” in that house. They’re all being paid with our tax dollars to do nothing at all.

    Well said.  How much electricity would this man have gotten, anyways?  I doubt he would have stood there for a few hours to charge the whole battery.  It’s a minor offense, and I seriously doubt it was worth the officers time.  I hate to sound paranoid or anti-police, but this sounds like it was just an excuse to see if the man had anything illegal on his person.

    So, if you didn’t have a a land line phone, and you believe cell phones are a waste of money, how would you be able to contact your family, friends, workplace, etc? For instance, if your phone line goes out in the winter due to ice on the lines or a tree falling on them. Or maybe, you happen to have some sort of an emergency in your house, such as a fire, flooding, or maybe a backed up septic system which causes your home to be temporarily uninhabited. Then how would you contact people? I suppose then you would either be borrowing someone else’s phone or stealing phone service from someone, right?
    Also, cell phones come in handy when you happen to get in a car accident or your car breaks down, your car battery dies, or you get stuck in a snowbank or ditch in the winter.
    You shouldn’t judge until you’re in someone else’s situation.

    Well, I won’t be visiting Bangor, Maine.  I live in Northern New England and this arrest sounds like police harassment.  The homeless guy was doing the things he needed to survive: charging his phone and being prepared to defend himself (or eat).  The cost of electricity for charging a cell phone is negligible, somewhere around one cent or less.  Who among us has never charged a cell phone or a computer using a mall or airport power outlet?  I see no difference.

    this is insane.  ARRESTING a homeless man for charging a cell phone?  Seriously?
    And since when is carrying a folding knife–AKA a POCKET KNIFE–a CRIME?  They are used to cut food, boxes, carve wood.  They are tools.
    well, at least the guy will get three hots and a cot for a while, on the public dime.  I wonder what will cost the public more: charging a phone in the outlet…or housing another prisoner.

    Good work, officer Fife.

    I’m kinda surprised that they failed to include a picture of the arresting officer. I mean after all an officer that is as on the job as the one who foiled this caper deserves  proper recognition. Perhaps even an award from the Mayor or maybe even the Governor.

    I can picture how this went

    (to himself)
    “herp derp I’m a cop doing coply things, hmmm?!?! whats this!”

        The police officer looks down with a heavily disgusted face only to see two cell phones plugged into his favorite outdoor outlet, hidden behind his favorite flowers, within his favorite part of Bangor.  The officer’s plump piggy cheeks turned a rosy red as piggy tears of angry gravy glistened upon them, he then proclaimed with rage

    “THE FIRST TRANSIENT BAST**D I SEE IS GETTING BOOKED SO HARDCORE!”

         Suddenly a young man approaches the officer, he then respectfully inquires about a possible problem.

    “is there a problem sir?”

          The officer viciously turned his head 

    “YOU A TRANSIENT BOY?”

    “uhm, yes sir I am”

         Without missing a beat the officer bum rushes the man and slams him to the ground.

    “THOSE WOULDN’T BE YOUR CELL PHONES WOULD THEY?!”

    “god! yes! I’m sorry!”

    “YOU’RE UNDER ARREST”

    I don’t want to play Captain Obvious, but If your homeless, you can’t have a landline. As far as having two phones, he could use one and have a second as a backup to use when the battery goes dead. Then all he has to do is swap the sim card and keep going. It’s not like he may have access to charge up his phone on a daily basis. I think the officer should have used a lot more discretion than arresting him just for that reason. However there is a concealed weapons charge. Hopefully the D.A. drops the charges on this guy. I wish him the best of luck in getting back on his feet.

    Illegal GPS devices? What are you smoking? He said prepaid cell phones. And yes, while there are legitimate homeless, the panhandlers are usually scam artists and addicts and many make as much or more as they did when working “legit”.

    It pays to actually research.

    “In January, the Metropolitan Improvement District, a branch of the Downtown Seattle Association,
    launched a campaign called Have a Heart — Give Smart. The group wants
    to raise awareness of deception and addictions that the organization
    says surround panhandling.

    Peggy Dreisinger, director of field
    operations for the campaign, said she and the panhandler researchers
    frequently see beggars duck into alleys to buy drugs immediately after
    getting a couple of bucks. They also know of beggars who
    aren’t homeless.

    How much do people make?

    “Keith Jensen of Sacramento noticed the trend and started his own panhandling Web site, WhyLieINeedADrink.blogspot.com. “I’m the only guy I’ve found who is panhandling online and off. I forced myself to do some time as a regular cardboard sign guy for market research.” The results:

    Banana Costume. “Hey, I’m a Banana Give Me Money. God Bless” $11.50 an hour.

    Uncle Sam Costume. Uncle Sam poster altered to read, “I want you to give me a dollar. God Bless.” $14.50 an hour.

    Just funny signs: “Last cardboard sign guy for 2 miles. God Bless.” “Exact Change Only. God Bless” and “The End is Here — (Arrow points to edge of sign) God Bless!” $6.50 an hour.

    No costume, no funny sign. “Please Help. God Bless.” $8.50 an hour. Two bus passes, one chocolate-covered granola bar.

    The upshot: Jensen made more than the minimum wage using a sign; the costumed days brought in more than he made at his day job. His advice: “ALWAYS have a ‘God Bless’ on your sign, but never specify which god. God Bless.”

    Hopefully there is more to this story.  A folding knife when you are living on the street is not a weapon, it is common sense.  Charging his cell phone?  A decent officer would have chipped in the ten cents for electricity with change left over.

    What is even more upsetting is that the city went to the time to book the poor fellow.  Shame on the officer, shame on the police department and shame on the city attorney. 

    Like I said, there has to me more to this story as I cannot believe that the city of Bangor was this insensitive and would waste this sort of money on paperwork and resources.  Keep it up and you will be as corrupt as a city on the other side of the USA where I will be posting a story in a few weeks.

    Cell phones are used by many homeless folks to keep in contact for services or other reasons.  Some of my recent homeless posts talk about how social networking is helping homeless. 

    Don’t assume that being homeless means you have no job.  There are many homeless folks that can afford some basic needs but not a place to live.

    I doubt it was any offense at all.
    Any breathing public defender should be able to get the charges dismissed.
    If  the public defender can’t get the charges dismissed he/she is being over paid.
    If the outlet was locked and the lock was broken to obtain the electricity it might be a different matter.
    Think of the time that will be spent finding a jury that has never used electricity that they didn’t have a bill directly delivered to them for use thereof.

    then you should  get rid of your phones and see how it works out. tell your employer that you no longedr have a phone, your insurance company and don’t forget your credit card company. Even a temp agency will rarely hire someone if they don’t list a phone number. Having worked with the homeless for years, a phone at least helps them maintain some sense of self respect. sure some abuse them, but than anyone’s neighbor may own their house and abuse it by having a meth lab in the bathroom…does that make them better? Most people look at the homeless as bums, when in fact a large population have mental and emotional issues, so the phone may be the only way they can talk to a councilor. most states cannot afford to provide safe housing for them, so many end up on the street after they have been a burden on their own families. at least the guy wasn’t in a bar or mugging your kid after midnight. I won’t blame the cop because maybe this was the tenth time he caught the guy doing the same thing…but it sounds like Maine needs to install those new fangled solar charging stations for cell phones for anyones use!

    Quite acting like you know that scene. I worked for Radio Shack in NYC and one of my regular customers was a dealer who would buy 10 $10 prepaids at a time and have me put his number on speed dial so he could give them to his “clients” when they needed drugs.

    I would guess that a lot of police departments have an unwritten policy of rousting homeless people.  This guy gave them a good excuse.

    Many homeless people are mentally ill and or drug addicts who do commit petty crimes and cause damage to private property while living on the streets.

    Lots of towns, if it is a transient, try to encourage them to just move along by making life uncomfortable for them.

    Some towns and cities try to help them, but it can be a tall order to help someone who is “sick” but doesn’t want help.

    Courts have long prevented the holding of the mentally ill against their will – unless they are deemed an immediate threat to themselves and others.  And then – only for a limited amount time.

    Lets get real serious.  2 phones  at  5 watts each (typical) = 10 watts.  10 watts for 1 hour = 10 Wh = 0.01 kWh.  Using my local rate of $0.14/kWh (taxes and surcharges included), 0.01kWh would cost 0.14 cents.  Thats right, about 1/7th of a penny! 
    We have no denomination of currency small enough to represent this…this rounds down to 0 cents!  Furthermore, if he had 7 phones, it would still round down to 0 cents!  Additionally, this ” service ” was left out in the open like money on the sidewalk.  It was not secured or posted as not for public use.      RECAP — This perp stole $0.00 worth of a “service” made available for public use!  Awesome case — He,ll fry for certain.

    Hello Ed;

    You begin your highly biased retort with some false assumptions. I do
    not have “phones”. I
     do not have an employer. I am retired. I never had
    multiple phones. I now have only a cell phone. My insurance company and my card company do not care whether or
    not I have a phone. We do all our business on the internet.

    You are generous with excuses for your “victim”. That mentality is
    why so many “poor” people feel free to scoff at our laws and commit
    egregious crimes. They have ready made advocates, like you, to make

    Hello Ed;

    You begin your highly biased retort with some false assumptions. I do
    not have “phones”. I
     do not have an employer. I am retired. I never had
    multiple phones. I now have only a cell phone. My insurance company and my card company do not care whether or
    not I have a phone. We do all our business on the internet.

    You are generous with excuses for your “victim”. That mentality is
    why so many “poor” people feel free to scoff at our laws and commit
    egregious crimes. They have ready made advocates, like you, to make
    excuses for them.  By the way, I grew up miserably poor
    as the son of a coal miner in the hardscrabble hills of Eastern Kentucky, so
    please don’t attempt to educate me about poverty. I’ve lived it, not just theorized about it.

    hmm. bangor sounds a great place to be —no other crime must exist since a bored police guy took his boredom out on this guy.

    and what an intellect and efficiency with tax money they have. woow.

    the guy got arrested, driven, using gas, to the station, printers and computers churned, pictures taken, electricity used and spend, cop time spend at an interesting cost and interesting amount to be added to fund his retirement after 10 years doing this great work. 

    Now he was wearing a concealed weapen. A folding knife!. may be the folding was illegal because I would not want to wear a not foldable knife with me. I might poke myself.

    anyhow. Bangor Maine. Common sense is likely not in your vocabulairy.

    But knowing this is a liberal place run by the undemocrats, it all makes 100% sense.

    Or possibly the business owner has complained and complained to the police about the homeless people hanging around the store and using the outlet.  Maybe the business owner asked the cops to start arresting people to send a message to move along.  Perhaps the cop tried to talk civilly with the homeless person and he became belligerent, giving the officer cause for concern.  How would the cop know the homeless man had a concealed weapon, otherwise?  Yes, it could have been discovered upon search incident to arrest, but it could just have easily been pulled by the homeless man.  Too many people are jumping to the conclusion that this is just some poor miscreant who is temporarily homeless, that the shop owner is probably the forgiving type, and that the police officer is a thug in uniform.  Without more information, no one can possibly know what occurred.  This is actually a poorly written report, as it gives just enough information to inflame the senses.

    I must say that im quite happy to see some positive comments on this story. But for the few ppl i see trying to justify this nonsense, here is my thoughts for you. Im not entirely sure exactly what your trying to accomplish, be it trolling, a grab for attention, or just looking to get a rise but here’s my reaction for you…. Having served 20 yrs in the military and seeing more then my share of action fighting for your rights and liberties, i did not sign up for this type of bologna at all. Yes, if you would like to nit pick then i have to admit either way you slice it, as the laws are written as of late your entirely accurate in saying its theft of services. But the point being, least for me, is what happened to the morals the compassion for one another the help my fellow man.  Why did this incident escalate to incarceration for such a trivial thing? As far as the pocket knife, well i ask how was it even discovered? Granted i haven’t really got myself involved with the authorities for quite an extended amount of time but even in the service, the mp’s wouldn’t conduct a search of your person unless they were going to take you off to the pokey. So in my experience that tells me that they had every intention of carting this young man off from the get go. Anyhow im not going too drag this rant on more then i already have, but wanted to throw some bits on their for you to chew on, those that have posted negatively. Hopefully what i said came across as i attempted to communicate it but its hard to be clear when im up this late nursing my old bones.

Many of them see things in black and white with no grey area. This officer should be suspended for his actions, and all the charges against the homeless man should be dropped, which they will be given the public outcry.

    They should charge him for the electricity. A kilowatt is worth roughly 10 cents. Which is enough to light a CFL 26 watt light bulb for roughly 40 hours.  So they should round out the cell phone charge at 1 cent. And then double the fine to 2 cents.

    Are you kidding me, really ? I guess the crime rate is really low in this city. I used to live in L.A. and this is A joke, who cares about him charging his phone after midnight? Please keep this over worked police officer in Maine, would hate to be married to him.

    Sounds like something which could happen in Europe, not in the U.S.  In Europe, most airports do not even have complimentary sockets available for paying flying customers to charge their phones.  When they do, there are only one or 2, and the only way to find them is to ask an airport employee (a repairman or a cleaning lady).
    The policeman needs to have his head examined, but first, it needs to be removed from the “dark place” where it is currently located!

    I certainly hope that the State forfeited the two cell phones to offset the cost of the arrest.  Cell phones are dangerous in the hands of transients, he could have been waiting for a call from Al Qauida to cause some real damage.  And a pocket knife?  He could have otten in the cockpit with that!  Glad the police are doing there job.

    This is sad.  What fraction of a penny does it cost to charge a cell phone?

    And you doubt this based on what??  A warm fuzzy thrill that shoots up the inside of your thigh?  You’re right though… it is tough on the streets, but where you find some sort of nobility in that situation is a far stretch my friend.  If the carrying of a folding knife constitutes a crime, then it’s a criminal act to have one.  Little room for argument there.

     There are many programs that give cell phones to the homeless. They don’t have to have service, any cell phone can call 911 even without service. That way even the homeless can have 911 access during an emergency. Even without service, the phones still need to be charged. It’s possible he could have been charging an extra phone for a friend too.

    This, an excellent example of the difference between a Peace Officer and a Law Enforcement Officer.

    A Peace Officer would’ve warned the guy. A Peace Officer would help a drunk get home from a bar, give him a ride or get him a taxi. Mission accomplished: no one was harmed or injured, and the situation was defused.

    This Law Enforcement Officer found a way to make an arrest. That’s what they do, that’s who they are. They seek out ways to enforce the letter of the law, no matter how trivial or what consequences an arrest will have for the ‘lawbreaker’ or how much of a chilling effect they cause for society. Law Enforcement Officers seek to build up their own usually overinflated egos, and desire to make sure everyone knows that they are large and in charge.

    Our nation now has many more Law Enforcement Officers than Peace Officers, and is in a much sorrier state for it.

    If any of you owned a business or a home in a large urban area, you’d likely have a change of tune if you had to deal with homeless people.  They typically pester your customers, stink to high hell, and do things like hijack electricity (in this case) or use public bathrooms without buying things. 

    It’s easy to be high and noble when you have nothing on the line and don’t suffer the consequences of homeless moochers.

    Give the guy a break and put an outlet outside the local Democrat Party Office, since their policies are making more people homeless, the least they can do is let him charge his cell phone on their dime.  I guess they only want to redistribute Republican money.

    Part of a new federal entitlement program that provides cell phones w/ 250 nationwide  minutes and unlimited texting, termed Safe-Link.  This is the real theft of services here, not .005 kilowatt that it took to partially charge a cell phone. I’d rather the homeless dude charge it in a public place and use a municipal outlet with city power then sneak into a backyard of a residence to charge it. If Bangor doesn’t like this maybe they should stop enabling the entitlement community. You’d think the PD had more important fish to fry.

    Who is the damaged party in this case? Did someone complain of theft of services? Why is carrying a pocket knife illegal? I see people charging their cell phones in many places like restaurants and the library.  The cost is maybe a quarter! So they arrested the man, how much does that cost? The bailbondsman, courts,  cops and corrections all got paid from tax dollars. This arresting officer needs to get another job. This is not policework, it’s stupid.

The federal law appropriate for these MP’s is in title 18 US Code ss 241, 242 and 1621, conspiracy against rights, deprivation of rights under the color of law and Perjury to oath of office. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode18. This policeman needs a new job and so does his/her commander.

    That is one of the ignorant, ill-informed comments I’ve read in this column in a long time.
    Do you not remember which Republican president was at the helm, and which party was
    enjoying intercourse with the lobbyists that enabled the banking and financial services companies to run amok and almost bring us all down? How quickly you forget and how reluctant you are to take off your blinders.

    The officer should have checked with the business first.  If a homeless man was charging a phone at my business, I would have told them to let him be.  It probably cost the business$0.01 or less, something anyone with a heart would gladly donate.  And the concealed weapon charge for carrying a knife?  Just about every man should be arrested for carrying a knife, then.  Sounds like this officer needs a desk job.

    Your comment is even more ignorant and ill-informed than the one your complaining about. First the President alone can not destroy the economy, it takes the Congress as well, and the Democrats had that locked up tight till 2010. Bush tried to rein in Fanny and Freddy, which was the root cause of the ’06-’07 housing crash, but was blocked by the Democrats in Congress. Not to mention, the Democrat you guys put in the White House has doubled down on every bad policy Bush ever came up with. Gitmo is still open, and conducting military tribunals, 3 wars going now (one without Congresses approval). Even more useless stimulus, giving us a record 14 Trillion dollar deficit. I would say it’s time for you to take your blinders off, and get some semblance of a clue.

    Poor reporting. Was there a sign that stated you may not use this outlet and whose outlet was it. Just a waste of taxpayer money to prosicute. How much elec. does a battery charger use. A few cents at most. And how much did it cost to charge Shaun, transport and keep him in jail. As for the knife I have a folding knife that is 3 inches when open I keep in my pocket, should I be worried about arrest. What a waste of  time by the officer, jailers, judge, court personel. If this is the type of crime wave hitting Bangor I think they need to let some police officers go.

    This is the most ridiculous arrest I believe I have heard recently. The guy plugs his phones into a businesses outlet and uses a nickles worth of current and gets a “theft” of services charge. Even the knife charge is bogus. People often carry folding knifes as tools and maybe protection. It would not have been any different had in been in his pocket. This cop was a jerk and could have handled it a lot better. There are a few good cops out there but they are getting fewer and farther between.

    Sounds like they have to many cops and should let a few go and not just give them a desk job.

    Cops are super expensive, besides salary, benefits and pension, they need patrol cars, weapons and all the other fun and very expensive toys.  Eliminating a few can save a town a  lot of money.

    It did not say he was penniless which is why he was prob. arrested. It said he was  a transient. I know of homeless people with some money either they earn it or are on assistance. Or maybe he stole it. Many homeless and transients have income just not enough to get an apartment or other place to live. Stop judging by your situation.  The story says he stole a few cents of elec. and had a knife how big a knife it doesn’t say. Maybe 2 inches maybe 12 reporter not much for facts.

    It did not say he was penniless which is why he was prob. arrested. It said he was  a transient. I know of homeless people with some money either they earn it or are on assistance. Or maybe he stole it. Many homeless and transients have income just not enough to get an apartment or other place to live. Stop judging by your situation.  The story says he stole a few cents of elec. and had a knife how big a knife it doesn’t say. Maybe 2 inches maybe 12 reporter not much for facts.

    If he is causing grief, get him on real charges, instead of bogus trumped up garbage like stealing 10 cents worth of electricity.  The police don’t have carte blanche to harass people.

    A folding pocket knife is a concealed weapon now?  I guess we better arrest the Boy Scouts!  The government lets the drugs in so BoA, Wells Fargo, and others can launder the money and Uncle Sam gets his cut.  Major General Smedley Buttler said it best, “war is a racket”.  He won TWO congressional medals of honor by the way.

    After little quick calculation I figured that I could charge my phone for 50 hours on ten cents, so this guy was probably “stealing” about a penny a day. Most people probably waste more than that by leaving their charger plugged in all the time. Doesn’t seem like it’s worth the trouble to arrest him, in my opinion.

    Who pays the bill?  Just because he is homeless does not mean that he may not have family  or even a part time job.  The homeless segment of this country is growing and many have lost their homes as a result of losing a job.  Not knowing the particulars of this homeless guy I hope that he is working toward a better future for himself .

    Both parties bent over for wall street.  Obama seamlessly continued and expanded the Bush policies of bailouts, quantitative easing, war without end, and restricted civil liberties.  Obama picked up right where Bush left off, it is almost as if Bush is still in office for all the difference it would make.

    Because he used much less than one cent worth of electricity, he was arrested and jailed.  How much is this costing the county and state?  The cop’s salary, benefits, and absurdly generous pension for the time it took to arrest him, and take him to the pokey, the cost of housing, and guarding him in the jail, the cost of the the DA, the cost of the public defender, the cost of providing the court room, judge, bailiff,  the cost of processing him at release, and if he is found guilty, the cost of imprisonment, parole supervision, or probation supervision.  If he violates probation, or parole the cost of dealing with that.  It’s crazy. It would be much cheaper to provide bums with a free place to charge their cell phones, hell, it would be cheaper to give them cellphones. 
       Chances are the real reason he got arrested, is that he mouthed off at the cop.  I’d be curious whether  the owner of the electrical socket even cared.  It’s a good thing you yankees are all rich, we can’t afford this sort of luxury in North Carolina.

    I think police time would be better spent arrresting and fining people for going 45 in a 25 (the speed limit in any unposted residential or business district), failing to signal properly and putting others lives in danger, accelerating through a stop sign, and ignoring pedestrians in a crosswalk.  Enforcing these traffic laws may not seem as important as the enforcement of some laws, but these traffic lawas are more important than “theft of services” from charging a cellphone.  There are far more important laws that the police should be enforcing and a homeless man charging a cellphone isn’t one of them.

    A Civialian Review Board is definitely in order.  Police do not like them because they question the actions of the police. The commanders and Police Chief do a terrible job.  The County Commissioners who are in charge of all deputies are not doing their job, they are all remiss and fail to perform their oath of office which is a Perjury. 18 USC 1621. Does anyone study the law?

    I don’t think it is that bad, but some things here in Bangor are foolishness.  Some people are so concerned that something might cost THEM an extra few pennies.  I was shocked about one thing that I was told by a resident of Bangor shortly after moving here several years ago that was absolutely no problem at all when I lived in Portland.  I went to throw some trash into an open trash can on the side of the road and I was told by this person that I wasn’t supposed to throw ANY trash into a trash disposal unit or trashcan on the side of the road.  Seriously??  I was told by several people in Portland that it was perfectly fine to do that and even had a few thank me for using their trash disposal unit instead of throwing it on the street.  NO ONE ever had a problem with me using THEIR trash cans or disposal units in Portland. NO ONE!!  Would people rather have trash on the street in Bangor?  It seems that way.

    ooohhhh, so he was arrested twice?  Stop being so damn petty people.

    You’re right I am ignorant.  Just a dumb back woods hick Mainer.  So
    what of it?  I only have 2 college degrees, Graduated top of my class both
    times.  I work my tail off to provide my family with a great lifestyle.   Sorry that I am not a leach on the welfare system and I like
    that officers are out doing the job for which they were hired.  I guess when you are not out breaking the law and attracting negative attention from officers, or when you are not a bleeding heart liberal then situations like this one make sense.

     The officer, who is not overpaid, did the job which he is hired to do.  I really don’t care if he was arrested for the theft of services, the concealed weapon or any other reason.   The fact of the matter is the officer acted within authority given to him by his position.

    He had a knife concealed underneath his shirt!  That is a crime. Is his history violent? We don’t know. Where there other circumstances not reported by the BDN??? Who knows.  Perhaps the thief of services charge was added to take this gentleman off the streets of Bangor. If this same gentleman was on drugs or drunk and disorderly or even a potential danger everyone would be complaining that the BPD wasn’t doing their job.  I’ve dealt with some of the homeless folks in Bangor.  Some, not all, have serious mental health issues and they fall through the system over and over again. I’ve seen them ask to be arrested so they have a place to sleep and food in their stomaches.  My point is, I highly doubt that officer Millard wanted to do the piles of paperwork required upon an arrest for something as small as charging a cell phone without permission.  My bet is that the knife had a BIGGER role in the arrest than the cell phone, but that wouldn’t make an interesting newspaper article now would it?????

    Title 25, Chapter 252, Permits to Carry Concealed Firearms:
    “A person may not… wear under the clothes or conceal about the person a firearm…bowie knife, dirk, stiletto or other dangerous or deadly weapon…” There are exceptions in the next paragraph for stuff like hunting.
    I wonder how they would consider the folding knife I have in my pocket almost all the time. I think of it as a tool.

    As others have mentioned, this is a short article, we only know part of the story.
    What if the officer has tried talking to this person several times already?
    What if the officer knows the person has a mental health history and the only way to get him any treatment is to bust him on some small item? The largest mental helath system in any state is the prison system. It has been that way since we got rid of the state hospital system and pushed people out to the street.
    What if the property owner has complained to the police about damage or transients interrupting his business?
    We can make up almost any story for or against either point of view. We simply don’t know from what is posted.

    Seriously…!!! A homeless man is being charged with theft of services because he was charging his cell phone in an outlet. The arrest of this man is a downright shame. His phone is his only link to his family and potential work/housing communication. I would gladly contribute to a fund for his defense. If I were a business person or lived in the Bangor area, I would gladly allow this young man (or transient as referred to in this article)to charge his cell phone any time and throw in a meal or two, to boot! As Charles Dickens wrote in A Christmas Carol “Humanity is your business..”

    Ok, let’s deal with some facts first. If you’re homeless, you can’t collect welfare  benefits.. so, his cell phone isn’t paid for by the tax payer. That said, the electricity account he was tapping into belonged to a private business. Those lefties who want to claim the owner wouldn’t even have known about it, what has that to do with anything? How do you know if the business owner isn’t having a hard time economically in this economy? There’s so much supposition on both sides, and no one’s right when they assume. There are shelters in the city, the homeless guy could have recharged his cell phones at one of the shelters. Or to all those lefties out there, why don’t you put a sign out in front of your homes or on your cars that you’ll allow homeless people to recharge their cell phones on your dime? Let’s see some of that so called charity you demand others provide, on your part. BTW, doesn’t lefty Stephen King have a home in Bangor, and he likes to say he’d be willing to pay more. Well, why doesn’t he open up one of his many homes to help the homeless in Maine? Why don’t wealthy lefties start walking the walk?

    How do we know if the guy gave the police officer some grief and abuse and that’s why he’s in jail? It’s easy to spout off, we need to know more before jumping to conclusions.

    Some people drink the kool-aid, regrettably, I think you’ve been spiking yours.  I didn’t see too many Republicans on that list from Countrywide Mortgage, and the mortgage crisis, was the most directly responsible for the financial problems we had, but I’m sure it’s easy, for people like you, to overlook the fact that Chris Dodd was getting breaks from Countrywide Mortgage and fighting any attempts to reign in Fanny and Freddie.

    Do me a favor, before you ride on your high-horse, do a little homework.

    OH NO! I used to have to do this all the time. While backpacking (technically a transient I guess), I used to charge my cell at random businesses all the time. Gotta call my mom, you know. Glad I didn’t get arrested. Kind of ridiculous.

    It has more to do with stealing the electricity than the mount of cell phones…….. And yes it isn’t a lot of electricity but without buying anything from the store he is stealing their resources and that is wrong……
