I am in the den of evil

    I was listening to a conversation with a group about a US cities crime rate. A friend who lives there had their house broken in to and a concerned boomer said "Oh wow was anything stolen"

    "Not really, a pair of shoes"

    "Oh, they were probably m*thheads"

    fucking ghouls. Somebody takes something they need to survive and you have to dehumanize them before you start to feel anything.

      Reminds me of when my car got broken into and my jacket was stolen. I didn't even bother telling anyone because that's the sort of reaction you get most of the time. I knew right away it was just someone who needed a coat since nothing else was taken. Sucked I was out a jacket but they clearly needed it more and I was lucky enough to have a spare

        Yeah, my friend even mentioned they had guns that could have been stolen, but weren't. It sucks having your stuff stolen but if they're having to resort to theft to get what they need I can't stay mad
