    Just because somebody stole food because they’re an asshole doesn’t mean that everybody who steals food is an asshole.

    We don’t actually know which is true here, but we do know that it’s far more likely someone is stealing groceries because the wealth inequality horrorshow has grown even more perverse in the last year.

    Nevertheless, rather than defending an unnamed person from potentially reprehensible police, you defended the police and an unnamed retail store from a potentially reprehensible person.

    I hope you’ve got shares in a grocery chain because it would be deeply pitiful if you weren’t even doing this out of self-interest.
