Are homeless people "exercis[ing] unauthorized control over the property of a retail merchant with the intent to directly or indirectly distribute the property for resale" (quoting the Indiana law)? If you're stealing something and then giving it away for money, we're pretty far from "stealing food to eat" territory. I don't think it's homeless people walking off with power tools.
