      Sure let’s go ahead and restart the pointless argument, that sounds fun.

      The mentality “Why did this person punch me, all I did was steal their wallet, how dare they” is indeed extremely unhinged. There’s a lot about American society that considers property “rights” of the wealthy to be sacred and personal safety of the normal people to be optional, and sure, that’s fucked up on a systemic level. But none of that applies to street pickpockets. Fuck 'em.

      (I sort of suspect that there’s a lot of overlap between then “there is NEVER a reason to assault a person over your property” contingent and the “there is NEVER a reason to call the cops” contingent, too. At least when they are talking in internet fantasy land, I sort of suspect that if someone came in their house and started rifling through their belongings they wouldn’t have this turn the other cheek stance about it.)

      Also:

      Shit one had fake elctric wallets to shock the shit out of thieves and only got em confiscated
