It's a $1M boat, not some furniture set that cost them $300 and they sold for $3,500.

My complaint is that OUR tax dollars are being used to arrest people who default on their payments to Rent to Own places. They're using the police as their collection agency and that's just not right. It's a civil matter and should be handled accordingly.
