I couldn't agree more. Earn it ... rather than steal it.
But of course you know the race they're saying is committing the robberies. They just get a slap on the wrist, a pat on the back, and put back out onto the streets.
Its sad. Mate of mine got robbed at his business years ago. He reported the robbery and identified the guy. The crim got a slap on the wrist and let off with a suspended sentence. That same guy returned to the shop with friends, beat the shit out of my mate whilst robbing him a second time. This time the crim served maybe all of 3 months, got released, and then torched the shop. Luckily my mate had sold up and left the business in that time. The law was soft on the crim due to his race. Meanwhile, my mate lost his business, robbed twice, beaten up (hospitalised), and eventually his marriage because it changed him.
When justice fails, you gotta dish out a bit of your own imo.
