What's just as interesting for me, is fewer know what it's like to be chased by a gang and cornered. Whether you're right or wrong, you are the enemy because of who you are and nothing is going to change it. And the feeling of desperation that goes with it. Alone, in a sea of hate.My point being that a lot of folks with blase attitudes toward thievery haven't had to deal with a near total loss of livelihood that accompanies said act.
Would I kill a thief? Maybe not, but I sure as hell wouldn't chide somebody for making remarks about wanting to do so online because, like you, I understand how devastating it can be to lose one's means to support themselves. Being a student that has some schoolbooks and headphones lifted =/= being a tradesman having all of your tools and supplies stolen from a jobsite; I don't think a lot of folks realize that.
Again, my statements are an aside from this case entirely.
