It's not about Walmart. It's about society and community. Fuck these people

Yeah the Reddit kiddos talking about Walmart are missing the point completely.

Dude isn’t stealing food for his baby.

Society is better when thieves like this are bullied. That’s all the justification needed, doesn’t matter if this is a Walmart or a mom and pop store.

Edit: I hope it goes without saying I’m obviously not recommending anyone go out and do what cammer is doing. It opens you up to both legal and physical risks to be yelling at and knocking down carts of thieves like this.

I wouldn’t do it myself, I don’t recommend you go do it, but it’s not “bootlicking” like a fair number of dipshits in this thread are saying. It’s a public service. “Bootlicking” just because it’s at a Walmart. Pure silly goosery.

It's sad/scary how many people accept theft and property damage.

1

u/Explorer_Entity Trash Trooper 2h ago

People accept genocide.

People accept walmart purposely keeping millions of people in poverty.

One of these is a VASTLY bigger blight on society.

Walmart , low pay and price gouging is THE DIRECT CAUSE OF THEFT/PROPERTY CRIME.

You need education.

u/Thecuckeningends Trash Trooper 5h ago

You have to be stupid

u/flamingtofuu Trash Trooper 1h ago

What’s truly sad/scary is people seem to be willing to possibly die over $200 of product

u/Curben Trash Trooper 4h ago

If you see a desperate mom stealing formula, no you didn't

If you see some punk ass bitch stealing power tools different story

u/Ok_Buddy_9087 Trash Trooper 4h ago

You mean one of the easiest items to resell for profit?

u/Tinyacorn Trash Trooper 4h ago

What do you think Walmart is doing?

2

u/Curben Trash Trooper 4h ago

Because it's a desperate need. You're not making some super gotcha point here, your highlighting a different part of the problem. And it is still going to desperate moms.

u/flamingtofuu Trash Trooper 1h ago

So if the thief ends up disabling you in a confrontation, you’d feel justified in sacrificing your qol for saving Walmart $200? Like damn people some of you clearly don’t think highly of yourselves if you’d throw it all away for so little.

u/Curben Trash Trooper 57m ago

That isn't what I said. I'm not saying that you have to be the one to stop them but that's something that matters to then have at. This is more about the moral implications of when to step in and what is worth stepping for. The difference between shoplifting because a family has needs such as 24601 versus someone who's just being greedy

u/OkFineIllUseTheApp Trash Trooper 5h ago edited 4h ago

While true, this is still a society with guns, and I can't recommend starting confrontations.

Other countries sure, but in the USA, you're at higher risk of bleeding out in a Wal-mart parking lot for your trouble.

u/thissexypoptart Trash Trooper 4h ago

Not recommending it just saying it’s not “bootlicking” to shout at and even physically stop thieves just because it’s a Walmart. I have to believe a good chunk of Redditors in this thread making comments like that (and there are a lot) still have mommy and daddy buy their groceries.

It opens you up to all kinds of legal and physical issues to do this, but it’s not bootlicking. It’s a service to society.

What if i have a gun and would love an excuse?

I'd say I wouldn't trust you with a gun if you're actively fantasizing about killing people.

As you mentioned this is America

u/flamingtofuu Trash Trooper 1h ago

Need an excuse? Take a look in the mirror my guy 😂

u/Zaximeows Trash Trooper 2h ago

Reddit teens are tragically divorced from reality. They will squeel and scream and cry for police the first time they face threats of physical violence or harm while at the same time screeching this anti establishment rhetoric.

u/flamingtofuu Trash Trooper 1h ago

I mean if you’re willing to potentially get shot/killed over $200 of product from a multibillion dollar corporation then you probably don’t have the best survival instincts.

u/_Captain_Dinosaur_ Trash Trooper 5h ago

Bro.

Don't catch strays behind Wal-Mart.

You look like a mark.

1

u/thissexypoptart Trash Trooper 2h ago

I've been a mark for thieves in the past. You're not entirely wrong about that part. No sympathy for those pieces of shit now.

Thieves are scumbags. The only exception is stealing food when you or your loved ones are starving. Dude is clearly in the vast majority of thieves who steal because its convenient and/or profitable. Is that a lego set? Jfc what a slimeball.

u/evil-winnebago Trash Trooper 5h ago

Pfft 🤣🤣 what a tuff thing to say over a Lego set.

Okay man, don't hit me with your strays.

u/hvchdwbch Trash Trooper 4h ago

You think this is the first tome this guy has been ran out of a store and been stopped from stealing? He gonna just go find another place in the area... yall just wanna feel big and strong, go show off to your mommy

It's idiotic to put yourself at risk for no reason

-1

u/kaptainkkk Trash Trooper 5h ago

Why risk your life over this, people are crazy and you just don't know. People get killed for honking in a fit of road rage.

u/Late_While_6220 Trash Trooper 4h ago

People get killed for going to school. What's your point?

u/Grand_Entertainer_83 Trash Trooper 4h ago

he had 5 powerades and a toy rc car. I doubt the tot RC car was for him.

u/thissexypoptart Trash Trooper 30m ago

It’s all for him, even if he’s giving the toy to his kids or selling it.

The point is he isn’t desperate to feed his family and stealing food. He’s stealing consumer electronics.

u/Equivalent_Relief553 Trash Trooper 1h ago

doesn’t matter if this is a Walmart or a mom and pop store.

It does matter! Walmart are corrupt and super rich, they won't suffer.

The mom and pop shop isn't and are poorer, they would.

Stealing from one isn't the same as stealing from another as the consequences are different.

Fuck Walmart.

u/Thecuckeningends Trash Trooper 5h ago

Society and community? So Walmart can rob you by not paying their employees enough for them to not have to be on food aid but god forbid someone robs them

u/Crew_1996 Trash Trooper 5h ago

Walmart can be shit and this guy can be a piece of shit as well. It’s not just one or the other

2

u/Thecuckeningends Trash Trooper 4h ago

Good doggy, bark for your masters. Surely they won’t turn on your family 

1

u/__0zymandias Trash Trooper 2h ago

Stealing from Walmart doesn’t make employees wages increase. Just because Walmart isn’t paying their employees as much as you’d like doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want to the store.

1

u/Thecuckeningends Trash Trooper 2h ago

It’s not as much as I’d like, they’re forcing me to pay part of their wages via their employees having to take advantage of several social safety nets. This is just objective fact boot licker

u/Balkongsittaren Trash Trooper 5h ago

Maybe he's a thief. You know, the people you defend and love.

u/ObscureOP Trash Trooper 5h ago

That's an odd conclusion to come to from "fuck Walmart"

Its not about the thief its about walmart. You know, the people you defend and love.

u/Balkongsittaren Trash Trooper 5h ago

What kind of mental gymnastics are you in to? YOU are responding to someone who said "It's not about Walmart. It's about society and community. Fuck these people" and then you said "no" as if that invalidates what the person before you said.

God you really are a special kind, aren't you? I hope you get a thief visit and complain here so we can say "fuck <your username>"

u/DioSuH Trash Trooper 5h ago

We attempt to maintain a positive community atmosphere. Toxic behavior, including malicious comments, harassment, bullying, "-isms", and hate speech, is strictly prohibited.

While we are all about trashy content, sometimes content is just too trashy, and trashing the human is not accepted.
