Is it a crime when you re-steal a stolen item.
Sensible #whitefolk are as confused about the whole #French museums theft as most #Africans.
The fact that people actually travel and pay to see stolen items is still a puzzle to a lot of us.
Most #Africans are surprised to learn that French and British #museums consider theft wrong.
Majority of the items in these museums are products of #theft.
I am confused too.
