They don't have to justify anything. They're thieves. It's likely that a large percentage of thieves are also addicts of one type or another.

What does that have to do with anything?

Thievery isn't something you can take your time at. You've got to find stuff and quick. So they're in a hurry, there's all this shit, they're looking for hidden treasures, they're either high or Jonesing. Best thing to do is pull shit off the shelves or walls. If there isn't anything to find, well, you've wasted their time, so they break shit out of frustration

jonesing is when you haven't had the opportunity to get your fix. could be drugs, could be booze, could be food or cigarettes or whatever.

it's the physical/emotional response. you're irritated, you're hyperfixated on your favorite thing, you're angry, you're ... Jonesing.

Jonesing
