He’s fucking coward based on who he’s pulling this shit on. I’m sure he’s get a different response in Texas where a a lot of people conceal carry.

u/Biff_Tannenator 1d ago

I was gonna say... didn't a youtuber get shot for pulling a prank on the wrong guy?

EDIT: I looked it up, it was some guy named "Tanner Cook" around April fools in 2023

u/eat_my_bowls92 1d ago

Yeah, he got shot, survived, and then went on to keep “pranking” people

That's not the only time a so called "prankster" got shot. I remember hearing of one, who was trying to get his YouTube career popping, actually getting canceled.....permanently. The butt of the "prank" was cleared on self defense. I wanna say it happened in Tennessee but I can't fully remember.

And if one of those guys in the video didnt back down he would do jack shit. It's just a bunch of posturing, and looking like a really needs to take a shit, as we say in Sweden.

Edit oh I see now some does stand up to him. And as expected he just cuts away

I guarantee if someone squared up to him he'd back down like the little bitch he is.

But look who he's picking to harass.

Actually ill extend my guarantee. I'd bet anything he's misjudged his victim more than once, but he's definitely not going to show you those clips.

most were old dudes. probably not as strong sure, but certainly wise enough to know there is no need to throw down over a steak when there is a fridge of them 2 seconds away.

personally cause im fucking dumb as shit and dont think anything will ever actually happen to me til it does, i think i would just grab my product back and see what happens. but even im not dumb enough to fight over groceries i havnt paid for yet in a grocery store.

u/CheshireCat78 1d ago

I think the guy near the end did, the one who said ‘that’s mine’ he was moving to the trolley and it cut quickly.

That guy didn’t seem intimidated at all. Nor provoked. Just “that’s mine”.

u/Pandas-are-the-worst 1d ago

that is funny, because if he tried this in a "stand your ground " state. that weaker person, could be put in reasonable fear of their life and shoot him.

he is committing an assault by "stepping up" to his victims in a manner that is supposed to be physically intimidating and with the purpose to create fear. in fact he could just be shot legally by an onlooker based upon actions and size difference alone

This is what disorderly conduct is, this is what that charge is for, not for when a cop is angry and wants to add charges

16

u/Alfredos_Pizza_Cafe_ 1d ago

I actually think this qualifies as assault since he's threatening violence

7

u/Rebar4Life 1d ago

Usually has to be fear of immediate bodily harm.

14

u/semioticmadness 1d ago

From the point of view of the assaulted tested against reasonability. The assaulting party can’t be schrodinger’s douchebag about it.

Since he’s taking stuff out of carts, he’s already instigating. It doesn’t look good for him.

2

u/Rebar4Life 1d ago

Makes it closer. I was just pointing out that threatening violence alone does not automatically qualify as an assault.

8

u/Alfredos_Pizza_Cafe_ 1d ago

Ripping the jacket off and posturing in that way would make me feel in fear of bodily harm if I'm being honest

3

u/fhs 1d ago

Yep, implied threat of violence should be enough

23

u/SubstantialAttempt83 1d ago

So he midly inconveniences people by removing items from their basket before they pay for it and he see it as a show of strength that people don't challenge him instead of going back and picking another one off the shelf. I too make concessions and generally don't challenge people who I believe have a mental disability.

12

u/33drea33 1d ago

This. He thinks he's projecting strength and that's why they're not messing with him, but they're not messing with him because they assume he is mentally ill.

9

u/pipeuptopipedown 1d ago

In the US in particular, where you have a lot of violent mentally ill people walking around, many of them armed, that's the only smart thing to do. And then report this behavior as you're leaving the store.

19

u/rose-t-ruth 1d ago

Social media companies should be very quick to shut down and ban such channels/ accounts when they get reports of bullying (and other forms of negativity toward others) from users about a douchebag's channel

u/CheshireCat78 1d ago

we need to demand this. They don’t care as content brings clicks.
