What the fuck kind of school do you go to where they have security to make sure kids don't steal?

We have a scale in our chemistry class, haha one time this black kid asked to borrow it to "weigh stuff". I wouldn't bother stealin' it, I just don't have it in me. Its cool though I have my own scale now that I got yesterday. had to drop 40 bones for it but thats alright, it will come in real handy a lot and I can probably make the money back if I sell a little bit, using the scale to wieght it so its paying for itself in a way.
