Maybe if we made a poster about how copper pipe theft is funding al queda it would get more play too.

i feel copper electrical wiring is under represented in the illegal building scavenging craze.
when the fisher Big wheels, Hills, Zayres, Big Lots, other retail buildings, and small factories closed down there was no word in the media about people breaking in and taking the electrical wiring.

I feel the same. That is why I am starting the cleveland chapter of the National All Copper Products Are Equal In The Copper Stealing Industry or NACPAEINCSI for short. We are dedicated in building awareness about other copper products that can be stolen. Because remember Electrical Wiring is copper too.
Will you Join us?

Lots of copper wire is being stolen as well. It's usually easier to take it if it's still on the reel.
Stealing wire from inside a house takes a more time-consuming and advanced technique than stealing the wire.
It doesn't cause as much trouble as stealing the pipes because electricity doesn't flood the house...
