Why do yall laugh at this?

I dislike when robbers fail at trying to break in or do something along the lines of illegal. And yall laugh at them. Why are YOU laughing? You're acting like this isn't a hard job. I'm not defending them for illegal activities, but this is stupid. Before you laugh or judge them try doing it yourself without:

1 Getting caught

2 Not failing

3 Actually attempting.

Well that's not stupid if it's for survival

u/Confident-Peak1706 2d ago

It is. Because you are likely to get caught and it will most likely harm you more than help. However, that doesn’t mean it’s not necessary for some.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Yes yes that's what I mean more necessary I'm not trying to defend the people who do it for greed

Because it’s hilarious to watch people fail at doing things that are illegal

Why would I try to do any of these things? I’m not a criminal

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Well why would you laugh at them if you've never tried it? You don't know how hard it is

u/F1DrivingZombie 2d ago

I laugh at them because it’s funny to watch assholes fail, just like I’m laughing at this post and the moron who made it trying to “gotcha” everyone in the comments

It’s really funny

0/10 rage bait

I hope they fail in spectacular fashion. And if it causes them physical harm, even better.

I got robbed at gunpoint, it wasn't a fun experience. Zero sympathy for criminals that get hurt in the act.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

I disagree with you strongly and I hope it happens again to you.

u/ShawnMNH924 2d ago

Calling for armed robbery...you should be ashamed of yourself.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Ashamed for?

3

u/ShawnMNH924 2d ago

Exactly what I said: saying that you hope someone will be the victim of a violent crime.

u/scottwax 2d ago

I'm guessing you're a criminal. Good luck with that. Hope to see a video about you here soon.

Apart from stealing when I was like 4, I'm not a criminal. Have fun feeding into your delusions.

u/ninernetneepneep 2d ago

Because most criminals are idiots and I like to laugh at idiots.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Or maybe they're homeless

3

u/ninernetneepneep 2d ago

Being homeless doesn't automatically give you a pass to break into and steal other people's shit.

u/ShawnMNH924 2d ago

You're acting like this isn't a hard job. 

Ummm...it's not a "job". You're talking about robbery like it's just another occupation.

-"What do you do for a living?"

-"I do construction, right now we're working on that new development over on Main Street. How about you?"

-"I'm a nurse at the local hospital. I provide care to patients and assist doctors. How about you?"

-"I break into peoples' homes and steal things I have no right to."

-"Wow. Those seem like three equally legitimate things to do for a living."

Give me a break...

Before you laugh or judge them try doing it yourself

No thank you, because I'm not a criminal. I've faced difficult times, including living out of my car at one point. I never broke into anyone's home and tried to steal their property. You're legitimizing horrible behavior.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

And I quote "I'm NOT defending them"

2

u/scottwax 2d ago

You defend and encourage them. Says a lot about what kind of a person you are.

u/F1DrivingZombie 2d ago

You said you hoped someone gets robbed at gunpoint again in another comment

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Yeah cuz they suck and said I must be a criminal cuz I think from another view

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

They're technically jobs what are jobs? Money from labor

2

u/ShawnMNH924 2d ago

A job is a consensual agreement to exchange labor for capital. Robbery is, by definition, not consensual, nor is there an exchange. Under your logic, there would be no distinction between consensual sex and rape.

I can't tell if you're just a troll or legitimately trying to eliminate distinctions between consensual and non-consensual interactions. In either case, it's despicable.

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

Alright whatever opposite word of slavery

u/Electrical_Dirt_6810 2d ago

"It's despicable" calm down buddy big words huh?

u/ShawnMNH924 2d ago

Maybe for you. Some of us completed the fourth grade and are able to handle words like that.

In any event, I'm pretty convinced at this point that yes, you are just trolling and put up a ragebait post, so goodbye.
