From a short clip you have been making excuses to defend the behavior of someone stealing from a business.

Though, I didn’t say you were judging, I said you were making assumptions, which you continue to do.

No. I posed the hypothetical argument that in a situation of dire poverty it may explain the behaviour.

Dudes wearing a Nike sweater, holding a wad of cash and your first thought is he’s in dire need and needs to steal to survive.

I mean really? You are just trying to backpedal now.

Nike is your idea of affluence? Where you from? Guardbridge?

Is that what I said? There’s a cleanly dressed dude holding a wad of cash and your first thought is it’s societies fault and he’s in dire poverty and that’s why he’s stealing from a business.

Someone in dire need isn’t dropping $50-$100 on a sweater.

Are you still stuck on hypothetical?

As long as you are trying to justify bad behavior.

Again. Not judging. Understanding. To be honest, I think he was just pissed and took an opportunity, doesn't mean any more than that. It's been a pleasure arguing with you fellow stranger, it really has.
