Simple. Copper is easy to steal and impossible to identify. Why steal your tools that have serial numbers and might be etched or marked in some way. There's a hance they can get caught with the stuff, plus they've got to fence it or try and sell it hot... and they're not getting big money for that. Copper pays damn well for a few hours work. They're cutting some of the old neutral wires off the poles here now. There is/WAS still sections of copper neutrals in places. Near as some of us can figure they have a sawzall taped to a length of black plastic pipe. Reach up, cut it off at the insulators, do the other end, gather it up, gone. They pulled something lke 2 KM of phone line here a month ago... It's pretty easy money when you burn it off, head to the scrap yard in the morning and sell it, no questions asked.
