  1. that’s what happens when you operate in a state that allows up to $950 in theft before they might think about prosecuting

    1. L – In Saskatchewan, a store mgr. told me. There is no prosecution worth attempting
      until they’ve caught on camera an estimated total of $5,000 being shoplifted. The
      ongoing chaos is not coincidence. It’s systemic, but not the fake kind. Politicians like
      to avoid making decisions by allowing the judiciary to govern the country. Then they
      claim to be, in effect, bureaucrats. In political science terms: Irresponsible Government.

      Self-government requires sacrifice and risk and asserting individual citizen sovereignty,
      as per the philosophy of British Common-Law. Keeping this a secret requires censoring
      history, as George Orwell warned us about.

      1. It was a coup perpetrated by Canada’s legal industry when they successfully replaced common law with statutory law.
        Canada needs a citizen led justice review on crime and punishment.

    1. That’s partly why the only pizza in the ghetto is Little Ceasars and it’s carry out only from behind bulletproof plastic

  2. I remember working in a corporate office that had a snack center based on the honor system. You’d take what you wanted and pay by putting the money in a cup next to the display. With today’s mentality, I don’t think you can do that anymore (and I’m not just talking about the urban streets).

    It’s no longer about right and wrong. It’s more about “what can I get away with”….and “if you didn’t want me taking what doesn’t belong to me, you shouldn’t have created the opportunity.” Then there is the youngest generation that seems to use the “I deserve this” approach.

    1. It’s hard to fight human nature, Orson.

      About locks, my father would say that “Locks won’t keep a thief out. You use locks to keep honest people honest.”

  3. I am against replacing low skills jobs by robots just to increase profits. This takes work away from actual people. Screw the stupid robots.

  4. San Fran should send them out so people can keep shit off the sidewalk.
    Call it the The Mobile Go Hut or Shit, Homey or maybe Progressive Privy.

  5. They’re cute little rolling ice chests with a “kick me” sticker on the back. Next to the “Steal me” sticker

  6. This is the real reason the robots rise up against the humans in the Terminator movie series. The robots weren’t going to put up with this nonsense any longer.

    1. This makes the robots the aggrieved party, much like what they did to poor BATTLESTAR GALACTICA…

      I think Daleks accompanying these servitors would quickly find gainful employment very satisfying to all but the criminally woke/stupid!

  7. I howled at the Asian woman riding the robot like its her first rodeo!

    For what it’s worth, at the risk of lowering my social credit score. I’d attack the Robots too. Tech Oligarchs can sod off.
