If I steal food from the store, I'm both robbing the store, and a community that would have paid good money for that food.
If I go to the store and magically have the items on the shelves be duplicated into my cart, and I don't have to pay for them. That is not a crime that is a miracle
Consider this. (big chain) Stores already steal from the community via profits they make.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Theft is theft.
