The shoplifter situation is so out-of-control in the San Francisco Bay Area that one frustrated shopper took matters into his own hands.
Literally.
An Alameda, Calif., man who gave his name only as “Kevin” told KGO-TV’s Dion Lim that he was “fed up” with the shoplifters robbing stores without any fear of prosecution.
Here are both clips, uploaded to Twitter earlier this week:
As you can see, the (alleged!) shoplifter managed to get away, thanks to his partner in a getaway car.
While I can understand this fellow’s frustration at paying for his goods when every other clown just walks out with stolen stuff, this is a good way for him to end up in jail, beaten or dead.
Thats what pisses me off more than anything.
OTHER citizens didn’t help him in the fight.
They started FILMING.
After the fight and the guy got away, if I was Mr. Good Citizen, I would have went over to the closest person who was filming on their cell phone, yanked it out of their hands and threw that cell phone down the street are far as I could.
Wonder how bad guys become so successful??
GOOD people DO NOTHING.
It doesn’t matter if it’s on the world stage or right next door, standing by while bad guys do what they will is a sure fire way to chaos and lawlessness.
Keep cheering.
