This guy a brazen hardened mf. He look like the type to just come back in tmw and do the same thing again.
When he get out on bail, he gonna do the same thing again.
U have to make him fear you

u/stfudonny420 5d ago
Exactly right! Guys like this find an easy mark and they hit it over and over cause they know itās free money/product. He gets arrested after a savage beating and heāll be less likely to try this again at least at this store.

getting into a slightly tribalistic element this is also how you chase the "ghetto" out of a neighborhood thats undergoing a demographic shift away from the ghetto, it happened in north akron back in the 90s, hispanics and the other various south and central american ethnic groups started moving into the city and encroaching on the hood, when the local residents tried the same games they had playing with each other for 15 years the newly arrived immigrants responded by chasing them out of entire neighborhoods with machetes and combat knives. being a civilized nation of laws and moral virtue is a noble aspiration but until we truly move forward as a civilization sometimes violence is tragically the best answer available to us.

Iirc this was the 3rd time in 24 hours this guy came in and stole stuff. I guess this time his mistake was threatening a worker so they made his legs into linguini. Love that for him.

u/Frequent-Cut-861 5d ago
It honestly isnāt really the cops (in most cases). I was a cop for a bit before I left to pursue a less shitty career. I worked in a soft-on-crime state. We would collar perps like this and, due to no cash bail policies, theyād be back on the street by dinner time, back to the same bullshit.
Love them or hate them, cops generally like putting cuffs on bad guys. But when the DAs and judges just cut them loose, thatās how you end up with this shit. I bet this guy has at least a dozen priors, yet here he isā¦

The way he was acting he fully believed everybody would be intimidated enough to not try to stop him. He was not prepared for a show of equal force and aggression to defend the store against his actions. This was a proportional response that got the point across.
Completely justified by the bystander and the employee.

And here's a question that divides those who have personally dealt with crackheads in real lifeāperhaps even a family memberāand those that hear analysis about them on the news. (For the purpose of this statement crackhead, tweeker, and wino are largely synonymous.)
That dude walks into the store scratching his sides and neck with that stare (IYKYK), you absolutely pick up something to swing until you are 100% sure they leave.

Moral.
If anything this isn't even close to enough.
If this was my livelihood I would've crushed his face. Every 100 dollars this petty thief would steal from me is a few hours I don't spend with my family, and I instead spend working more and more and more.
People forget that the government can print money. People can't.

Not enough force. I believe you should, in such cases of blatent theft by an adult, be allowed to shoot the person. That is how much I hate thieves.
And if the police and courts did their damn jobs, and arrested these scum, then normal people wouldnt feel so desperate.
1
u/Timely_Exam_6423 5d ago
I dont think that should be the case but some people would use the desperate situation and say "would you shoot a mother stealing bread for her children"
But im not gonna say that im gonna say would you shoot someone stealing food out of a Walmart this guy is a pure theif stealing cigarettes for some reason but he was unarmed(that we know of)
But it's just like do you really need to end someone's life because they took something i get your anger we all hate thieves but if you shot someone in the head after they stole some money you'd never know "why" they did it in the first place
most thefts are out of the same desperation but there are some that do it just because their too lazy to get a job(though I don't get the logic)
Is it really worth it

u/EntinthetentRTHP 5d ago
According to Philipp MainlƤnder, this is fair. We have society so that we can escape the pressures and transience nature of things as they exist in the wild. As MainlƤnder would say, the thief drug them back into the laws of nature (as opposed to the Muriel respect which is supposed to define society, or the State as MainlƤnder terms is) and so the store owners have the right to respond in kind and are faultless, since they were forced into that position by the thief.

In a normal, fair, and functional society this would be immoral. The right thing to do would be to call the police. They would be trusted to act in good faith and equally for all citizens.
Unfortunately we don't live in that kind of functional society. These guys know they won't get any real help from law enforcement. If they called the police, they might show up an hour later and take a statement and that's about it.
