Girl Stealing From Car in San Francisco

I saw a video today which purported to show a woman who appears to have a substance abuse problem being confronted by a man who is claiming she is stealing from cars. My first thought was, "So what? You deserve it you scumbag." but I started to think a bit more deeply, and I realized that I still thought "So what? You deserve it you scumbag." The only honest ethical consumption under capitalism comes from stealing from tech worker's cars. So, the next time you pick up an organic green juice at Whole Foods, just consider how much better it would taste if you got it out of the grocery bag in the Honda Civic outside.

... is a religious head trip rooted in caste-systems that promoted food hoarding. A superior caste would teach an inferior caste that even if it was starving (famines used to be quite common) that it was 'wrong' for them to steal food. Of course, violence is the real authority here, it's just that if you can train your serfs to believe it's wrong to attack the Lord even when starving, they will generally not attack until they are so weak and malnourished that dealing with them is very easy.

In Old English, Lord was Loaf-Ward, or Loaf-Keeper, Lady was Loaf-Kneader. So the Lord and Lady kept their peasants on a diet of bread. Many of them didn't live past the age of 30 or so. They were taught that fighting was wrong and that the Lord and Lady were demigods.

Theology = Deology, Ethics = Edicts

edict comes from ex + dicere, to speak out. So the Lord speaks out and calls it ethics that the peasants are trained to starve to death rather than fight. Fighting is unethical, it upsets the Lords and Ladies!

No society has endured without some form of property rights. Humans are very consistent that way.
The code of Hammurabi prescribed death for many instances of theft.
Other cultures were more lenient - hand amputation was common, and is still practiced in some parts of the world. And other extremities, too... This is increasingly practical as a punishment because prosthetics are so functional these days. Thieves can be made productive, minus a few parts here and there. It's a normal life. Mostly.

I know a social worker whose car was broken into by some vagrants, right in front of her sister's place. They stole all her birthday presents, which were mostly books. Nothing of any commercial value.
This woman works in child protection, constantly volunteers, helps people... The irony was quite bleak.
Hammurabi had it right.

And your credit card numbers on here.
I'll make sure they get posted at downtown homeless shelters along with a note "come to my place and take whatever you want"

You deserve to be in prison. A crime is a crime.

Amazing!

I’ve actually never thought of it that way. Probably because I’m not one of those lame-ass idiot like you who thinks that they’re owed something for nothing. The truly amazing part is how many other people just like you exist. Now crawl away back into your crevice.

Just another lazy asshole socialist/communist who feels entitled to what other people work hard for.
These people would do better if they just got off their asses.
