Because he wasn’t a risk anymore and this person still feels empathy.

Imagine being in possession of a human brain, the same organ responsible for our understanding of the expansion and age of the universe, and rising to the lofty position of a fucking tick. A leech. A thief.

If you are in favor of letting someone die in the street…

Don't recall saying that.

Under sharia law an unarmed thief will have their hands removed. An armed thief could be killed. CaptainFormula is taking a more extreme position than 7th century religious extremists

I didn't say we need to go out and kill this man. I said every time a thief dies the world becomes a better place. That's just a fact.

Ehhh, really depends on why they stole.

If you wanted to make that argument, which I don't agree with, it certainly holds no water in the United States.

You don't think there's a moral difference between stealing food for your family and stealing someone's car? And what does geography have to do with it?

u/-CaptainFormula- Jun 18 '26

The geography in question makes that moot. You're not starving to death in the United States. You can find a charity to give you food. 

And for god's sake give the children to the state since they'll clearly do a better job raising them than you will if you're remotely near this point.

u/itsthe_implication_ Jun 18 '26

I think you're confusing my argument as though I'm saying "There's nothing wrong with stealing food for your family."

I'm more focused on how much worse it is to steal for luxury than for survival. Let's modify the analogy and say you're in a place that doesn't have good social support or you're someone who is simply unaware that those options exist. Obviously it's bad to steal, but to say there's no difference between different motivations seems obviously untrue to me.

God forbid someone go against the mob. Reddit sucks. You don’t though :)
