Criminalising poverty is the most American dystopia ever. We can all help.
I care less WHY they stole the food. I just find it distasteful when the cops post these "look how bad ass we are" social media posts. Crime, no matter why it was committed, should not be used as someones time to celebrate or the special time before the trial to convince the public that the suspect is guilty via Facebook,etc. Least of all by the group of people who do the arresting.
Fuck all the grocery stores. They're stealing from US
If you see someone stealing food... No you didn't
Having to steal food is super tiresome. Would rather not have to, but I've never felt bad about doing it. Imagine that. The normalization of the degradation is my issue personally. Putting people on one side of a moral line based on bullshit economic factors that for the one stealing are a kin to the winds of fate.
Hahha wtf, now they are asking us to "support" the shoplifters? Lol fuck that. Go to work
Shoplifting isn't right, but there are deeper issues than shoplifting if someone has to shoplift basic needs.
Basic needs like air freshener and ketchup?
Yea, people not working and just taking stuff is the basic problem
You mean like billionaires right?
Yea, so enoying when they go shop lifting
The food i understand but not the rest. Food has become so damn expensive these days.
There are other necessities than food that people can't afford.
They also stole condoms, the ones they harm the most is their direct neighborhood when cheap stores leave the area and the remaing stores shift the burden of lost merchandise onto the paying customers.
Condoms, which should be free.
No person lost their job or saw a difference in price due to this amount of theft. Stop spouting corporate propaganda.
Just because somebody is stealing food doesn't mean they have to steal to live. Some people are just assholes.
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.
I mean you're being one right now.

If only you could stack "wage theft" on the back of a dodge for a social media photo op and brag about how the criminal behind it is being refused bail.
Don't👏be👏ball👏cancer👏
Call me crazy but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt before assuming the worst when I don't know their situation.
Bro, this is the internet. None of it matters.
Dang y'all have steal passes? I wish I could steal me some bitches after all mans gotta eat sum poon!
Ok, so here is my apparently unpopular opinion: Stealing is bad, and trying to justify it is not ok and dangerous.
Is lemmy really promoting stealing 🤧?
Over starving to death? Absolutely.
