a couple of days ago, i put three working black computer monitors out by the curb for anyone to get them for free. I put them in the free section of WYS. Can you believe someone came along and cut off and took the electric cables from each, ruining the monitors ! 

I'm not sure, but don't those things have copper wires in the cords? 

sure do. 

There ya go. Tehy prolly thought they didn't work so they took just the cords.
