People have the right to stop a robbery ripcord Aug 2020 #119

You don't have a right to physically assault someone to stop theft of a $15 hat. SunSeeker Aug 2020 #123

Without the assault, you can easily reclaim the property by simple force of grabbing the object. ManiacJoe Aug 2020 #148

May I suggest "easily" is hardly ever the case. SunSeeker Aug 2020 #150

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. ManiacJoe Aug 2020 #151

You know what's stupid? Getting in an physical altercation over a $15 hat. SunSeeker Aug 2020 #134

... it wasn't his hat, as the video made clear. And while it does not excuse THEIR behavior... moriah Aug 2020 #140

Way too many conspiracy theorists here in this thread Polybius Aug 2020 #116

Over a $15 hat? Why not just call 911, LIKE THE KID ASKED HIS MOM TO DO? SunSeeker Aug 2020 #132

Not about the price, but principle Polybius Aug 2020 #146

Exactly. Thanks. /nt artemisia1 Aug 2020 #159
