  All jokes aside.

  Please people, do not actually steal from these stores. This is the quickest way to get arrested and end up with a criminal record.

  The prosecutor is not going to give a damn what your reasons were for stealing so please keep that in mind.

    Things that will also get you a criminal record:

    Feeding the homeless

    Giving water to voters

    Public Assembly

    Telling pigs to stop being pigs

      The first one I get, but the rest have issues.

      The giving water to voters thing is for political candidates. Gift giving is by far the most effective way to manipulate people into doing what you want. That’s why Jehovah’s witnesses give you a free book when they’re on mission.

      Peaceful public assembly is litterally protected by the constitution. That doesn’t stop police from declaring peaceful assembly a riot and shutting it down, but that’s a different matter.

      Arguing with cops never gets you anywhere good. Likewise insulting them to their face.

      Nazis are objectively wrong and bad, but their right to peacefully assemble in public is just as protected as yours. Attacking them unprovoked is assault even if you have the moral high ground.

      I agree with the spirit of everything you said. It’s just that vigilante justice just flat out doesn’t work. You become an example of your party’s supposedly blatant corruption and now they have someone to rally against. In most cases laws need to be changed, not broken.

      Hey man, you do you. Who am I to stop you?

      I just want to put it out there that even though I get your intent, it’s not necessarily something that will be taken without criticism. I’d rather people not get in trouble for stealing, no matter if you think it’s justified or not.

      For people that are in need of food assistance and located in the U.S. you can visit here www.fns.usda.gov/snap/state-directory and select the state you’re living in. That should get you started in receiving food assistance and necessities from the government.
