Last time I saw someone grabbing some food the only reason I saw them was to mention a security guard who was about to turn down the aisle. Gotta watch out for each other
I actually am excited to teach my kid tricks to get free shit from places like Amazon and Walmart. I’ve mentioned my excapades a few times, and have instilled in him we don’t steal from our neighbors no matter how small, people work hard for their shit. But companies that report $54 BILLION in profit and treat their employees like trash are fair game.
True, but they’re probably not ripping you off and reporting billions in profit. Corporations are almost guaranteed to be. My neighborhood gas station is not on the list.
but they’re probably not ripping you off and reporting billions in profit.
Nah, they’re just ripping you off and reporting thousands in profit.
They’re doing the exact same thing, just on a smaller scale. And if you got rid of the big corpos, they’d grow to fill the void left behind and start doing it on a bigger scale.
I once remember reading a story where a police SQUAD chased a woman for over 3 hours in a police chase.
The crime? She had stolen 2 loafs of pumperknickle bread, and ran out of the store. Employees chased her, got her liscense plate, and cops pursued.
They then arrested her, and I forget the exact jailtime she got, but it was more than 10 years. If I were an employee, I’d have “chased” her. Just enough to get my bosses to think I was trying, but then oh no, I’m too fat and slow! She got away in the parking lot.
Police fucked this lady up for a candy bar and 20oz drink iirc. I fucking hate cops. Broke her arm, slammed her on the ground then laughed at the videos later with their coworkers.
Bro, it’s a little food. They’re not knocking over shelves and burning places to the ground. Walmart can get fucked, as far as I’m concerned Walmart created their own problem.
How do the losses compare to the profits? How do the profits compare to charitable donations? How do the profits compare to taxation? How do the profits compare to average employee wage? You recognize the side you’re taking, right? You’re trying to adhere to a moral line when dealing with a blatently immoral entity.
These are not losses. They’ll just push up the price of goods based on their chance of being stolen.
You’re not stealing from the store, you’re stealing from everyone else that actually pays for the products.
Unless you’re stealing from a small shop that doesn’t have the time and resources to calculate price based on theft. In which case, you are an asshole for stealing from a small business.
Companies unloading customers pockets and not paying living wages. At some point it’s going to be expected you’re going to get shit stolen. Its also insured.
You’re probably the same person to vote against SNAP and free school lunch, then still bitch when people who can’t afford to eat steal it. Either help them, or prepare to get fucked.
If you were make an ordered list of things that destroy a community, where does “petty theft of groceries” fall on the list? What other things are included?
Just remember, if you see someone stealing food…
…No you didn’t

Stealing anything not from a private non rich individual.

The Robinhood this world deserves.
*stealing anything. (As long as they’re stealing from a business, at least.)
You could be holding the cashier at gunpoint and emptying out the register, and I didn’t see shit.
I’m ok with stealing ftom the store. I’m not ok with them endangering the cashier.
Corporation, you mean.
The word business covers honest people making an honest living running their own thing, too.
Just because a business is small doesn’t mean it’s honest.
True, sometimes the most abusive businesses are small.

So every working person is an asshole and the only ethical way to obtain food is to steal it?
Doesn’t seem too ethical to me. Sounds like a justification for being an antisocial asshole.
Nah, most of them are just working for an asshole.
Well, you could also grow it yourself.
But, sure, stealing is one of the most ethical ways to obtain food.
Do you consider all businesses dishonest?

Did I say it did?

And I wasn’t replying to you.
Why you replying to the corrected comment to someone else, after I deleted the accidental one?

I mean, you should probably tell them that it’s unsafe to point a gun at people.
Not small mom and pop shops. Anything on the stock exchange absolutely.

Was she brown?

The only people who say this are out of touch rich kids
As a poor person, nah.
As someone who’s spent a lot of time with out-of-touch rich kids, they think shit magically appears. Especially money.
how does that statement as a response make any sense?
Because people who live in areas where this shit happens regularly dont encourage it. Its scum behaviour that destroys the community.
Bro, it’s a little food. They’re not knocking over shelves and burning places to the ground. Walmart can get fucked, as far as I’m concerned Walmart created their own problem.
Its not a little food people walk out with shopping carts full of meat and other expensive items. Its not just Walmart this affects every store.

You’d fit right into my neighbourhood. Thats the same scumbag me against the world logic that makes it such a shithole.

No, Walmart destroys communities.
How is that at all relevant?
You some champion of missing the point?
Its not a point. It changes nothing in the discussion.
🤣🤣🤣
Do you live in such an area?
If you were make an ordered list of things that destroy a community, where does “petty theft of groceries” fall on the list? What other things are included?
the community is already destroyed when its acceptable to snitch on those who can’t afford groceries. ALL HAIL BIG CAPITALISM!
You think they can’t afford groceries? This is what I mean by out of touch.
And you think they can? Why would they risk heavy fines for a fecking loaf of bread?!
Heavy fines? Shoplifting anything under 2k you walk off Scott free and thats only in the unlikely chance you get caught.
Why do food stamp type programs exist?
To feed people who dont have money to buy food… So they dont have to steal.
Where do I pick up my check?
