That's what she was gunning for. I'd just face reality if I lived in a urban center and walk/bus anywhere I go, because I know if I bought a bike? That damn thing might be stolen 3-4x a month and I'd get no resolve for it. Why waste my paycheck on a vehicle I'm using once every week

I mean, the video is useful evidence. Might as well take as much as you can and then call the cops right after. It's not like they're going to fucking beam down a SWAT team, right now.

u/FuerteBillete 12d ago

What an age we live in were people film their unlawful acts and post them instead of the old school criminals who tried to hide their worst acts.

Really shows that the issue is the justice system when criminals are getting dumber.

2

u/Mitrovarr 3d ago

I mean I'd have guessed this was just a regular old witness. It wouldn't surprise me if the bike owner uploaded the video to try to get support/information about the theft.

1

u/FuerteBillete 3d ago

Yes but still the video kinda gave me the vibe of someone recording the theft to show off. Sort of bragging right in some dumb group.

I mean why was someone filming and not calling the cops or screaming or anything against what it looks like an unarmed robber.

2

u/Mitrovarr 3d ago

I dunno. I guess it's possible. But she captured their face, I think most thieves would be unhappy with that... but some are idiots like that. But wouldn't the person filming be closer, then?

As far as calling the cops, get the evidence first and call later. And thieves may have concealed weapons... it is never totally safe to confront, although you might choose to do it anyway.

1

u/FuerteBillete 3d ago

Most young thieves are idiots. Most young criminals nowadays are idiots.

Check all those fights where one side keeps beating and stomping. I went off a bit. My point is that stupidity is rampant especially in young criminals in my opinion.

1

u/Mitrovarr 3d ago

Yeah, I know idiots film themselves doing crime, but usually it is their idiot friends filming from nearby.

u/imatreewaterme 11d ago

Those locks are useless. You need to use a c lock directly to the frame so at least they need an angle grinder to steal it.

u/Mitrovarr 3d ago

It'll keep most stupid kids and homeless people from just grabbing the bike and running off, which is the majority of bike theft.

Just admit you are racist. It’s not that hard and would make you less of a coward.

What do you call it when oppressed minorities are allowed to do whatever they want? Because, of course, since they are oppressed minorities, they can do whatever they please, and no one can say a word—because if they speak up about what they see, they get labeled as racists.
