The fight of good vs evil. The burger war.
On the one hand we have a solid, decent, tax-paying citizen enjoying a McDonalds meal.
Along comes a hungry guy who wants the extra burger of this guy sitting on the foot path.
Bums usually ask for spare change or money, this guy asked for something to eat.
Do bums and homeless have no rights? Isn't begging preferred to stealing?
Things changed after a wardrobe malfunction and our decent hero jumped up and accosted the
hungry man for exposing himself. I mean, someone has to stand up for what is right and the
American decent way of life. Afterwards the hero left after retrieving his burgers. He took
a bus home which would have cost more than the $1 burger. No way our hero wanted anyone to
be able to identify him. Retrieving his car the next day would have meant taking another bus.
I rather doubt this is a big moral or even political issue. Whatever happened says more about
the hero than anyone else. He was proud of what he did so posted this story on the internet.
I got a ride back to pick up my car.
Begging is preferable to stealing but that still doesn't make demanding food from someone right. Getting kicked in the stomach is preferable to getting shot in the stomach. Are you really this dumb or just trolling again because there are lads in sight to take pictures of? Tell me truth Vincent, if you were having a meal and someone says you should give them some of your food and start stomping their feet and flipping you off you would consider that OK?
I left because I wanted to avoid the needless hassle for everyone and not because I didn't want to be identified. I am easily identifiable. I'm on camera, I'm in gym clothes, I am carrying a gym bag, I am 30 yards from a gym where I am known. If they wanted to get me it would be easy as pie. But I already made that clear but you still bring it up.
And the fact that the bus ride cost more than the burger again shows where you, and people like ratherbebig, minds are at. You think it was about money. Didn't the example I took the trouble of giving you about the robbery register a single brain cell in your dogmatic head? It was about defending human decency. Not letting someone think they can just approach anybody and demand what they have, whether a burger, their jacket, their sunglass -- anything and let them get away with it.
But thank you for responding. As I said before, this has turned out to be such a great thread. We can see clearly where the battle lies and what side people are on. You are on the side of the bums hassling ordinary people minding their own business and I am on the side of the ordinary people minding their own business having their lunch and willing to defend their right to do so.
So you decide, GetBiggers, why kind of world do you want to live in?
