GAgunLAWbooklet, there's a new lady congress-madam from New York (AOC) you need to get in tight with, you'd fit right in with her little group with the mentality of,......"we'll just take it, you don't need/want it".

@GAgunLAWbooklet I usually try and take the high road and not let folks bait me into an argument here, but you struck a nerve and I can't let it go. The house in question was build by my Great Great Grandfather who lived in it with his wife where they raised two children. He was a Reverend and Confederate soldier with the Ga Hussars. He was as avid writer and many of his diaries from his times in war are now at Emory University. Sherman stopped at this house on his march to the sea. My Great Grandfather/Grandmother also lived, where they also raised two children. Most recently my Aunt/Uncle have lived in this house. Although no one has lived in the house in about 15 years, it is in good shape for its age and could easily be lived in again with very little work. So it's not some piece of s@#t shack falling down in the woods. Even if it was, walking through a fence posted with a no trespassing signs is breaking the law. Breaking and entering into a dwelling you do not own, no matter the condition, is against the law. Stealing things out of that dwelling is against the law. Looting is illegal, despite what twisted moral justification you come up with in your mind to help you sleep at night. Doesn't matter if you feel you are saving an antique piece of furniture or spoiling produce, breaking and entering, criminal trespass and stealing are all illegal acts punishable law.

I'm skipping from the OP on page 1 to here, but...
... if the old farmhouse LOOKS abandoned, and it looks in a bad state of disrepair, isn't it reasonable to think that very soon the roof will start leaking and destroy all the stuff with rot and mold?
If so, then perhaps the real crime here is just trespassing, but the "theft" may simply be someone's desire to avoid waste, and let valuable or historically-significant stuff be lost through rot and rodents and neglect. If the thief steals an antique chair and sells it, at least SOMEBODY will buy it. Somebody who thinks it has some value, and will keep it safe and maybe try to refinish or restore it (if it needs that).
I'm just playing Devil's advocate here.
I can't believe someone here, especially in that profession, would advocate theft. I don't even know what to say here.
