A funny thing happened at my pizza restaurant this week. A guy bought a small, take & bake pizza using his food stamps. Someone else bought a couple of large deluxe style pizzas to be baked.
When the big pizzas were done, the clerk brings them out and says '2 pizzas for Tony' and the food stamp guy says 'I'm Tony' and grabs the pizzas and runs. Some employees went out and asked the guy to come back, he had the wrong pizzas. He tears out of the parking lot and takes off.
A pizza driver sees this happens and chases the guy and gets him to stop. The thief takes a baseball bat out of his car and attacks the guy who stopped him, so the driver backs off and the thief drives away.
Relevant data:
1. Everyone got the license plate.
2. Multiple witnesses, people in the waiting room.
3. The guy paid with food stamps that have his name on them as well as ID numbers that tie them to him.
4. He stole stuff.
5. He assaulted a driver.
So he gets arrested, and during the arrest, attacks the police officer. Now, in addition to 3rd degree larceny (which isn't a big deal), he's added 'assaulting a police officer'.
Ah, where did all the smart criminals go?
-
Dam you must have some really good pizza.
-
pizza hut is the schnizzit.... i'd rob an old lady for her food stamps to get it.
-
When the time comes if ever that I see someone risk his liberty for food, I hope I resist the urge to jump in my car and give chase.
-
Just imagine what would have happened if you'd owned a Sushi Joint.
-
If I owned a sushi joint, the obligatory katana swords over the register and the stick-on dragon tattoos up my arm would probably discourage theft.

He ain't tragic. He's a jack*** on food stamps who stole a couple of pizzas. Hell, consider the fact that he was using his food stamps to buy a pizza. It's not like he was getting milk for his baby.
Or am I reading more into your post than was there?
-
WHAT are you TALKING about TARD the guy is COMPLETELY TRAGIC!
But lemme get this straight....
If you were either a pizza delivery guy makin' 3 bucks an hour or just a regular dude walkin' by, and you saw someone runnin' out of the shop with some jacked pizzas... you would jump in yer car and try and make a citizen's arrest?
-
No, I'd laugh and call a friend to tell them what I just saw. I might yell at the guy though, just to tell him what a dipsh*t he is. Chasing him down for a couple of pizzas was just stupid.
As for tragic, I guess it depends what you mean. When I think tragic, it would be something/someone I felt sympathy for. And that wouldn't be the case here. :)
-
No, because I don't trust anyone on food stamps.
A) They are too ****ing retarded to catch their food, I mean **** - if you were broke, you would be able to get your own food, si?
B) Being too ****ing retarded to catch their own food puts them into the category of being entirely too ****ing retarded so they could wield a knife, gun, chain saw, who the **** knows and kill your bellybutton for being an idiot.
and finally
C) Food stamps indicate you are the lowest possible rung of society, bums don't count since they aren't a part of society, and when in that state - you go back to option B and they are ****ing dangerous because they don't have **** to lose.
So, get a license plate # and let the police find that mother ****er. Pizza isn't worth being mortally wounded or dying over.

Ah... see I paint tragic with a much broader brush. That guy who was drinkin' his own vomit in that link Sand posted, for example. I feel no pity for him... but yegads, he was tragic.
-
Yeah, I get ya, definitely tragic. Kinda like the Emiril Legasse sitcom. :D
-
I wouldn't chase him down over a couple pizzas, people have been shot over dumber things.
just take down the number and give it to the owner of the shop.
as for how tragic he is. lets set aside for a minute he's a thief. I suspect the likely reason he's on food stamps is his lack of ability to tulips a certain situation and predict the reasonable outcome of a given action.
he was headed for prison anyway, anybody dumb enough to steal from someone who has seen your ID, do a car-chase over a petty theft, add assault (which in Oregon changes probation at worst offense to up to 7yr measure-11 sentence in the state pen), then just to make sure he's the stupidest man in town today, he assaults the guy who has the gun strapped right to his hip where everyone can see it.
this dumb-ass was likely headed to prison before he was headed to HS, just a matter of time before he found the right situation. the sooner he gets locked up the less trouble he can get himself in and the less people who have to suffer his company on the outside.
also if he's getting food stamps you know he's eating so the whole starving desperate bit does nothing for me.

I see nash... so.. You believe that only people who make a lot of money at their job should try to stop a theif? Or, do you believe that all petty crime should be ignored?
As a society... at what dollar amount do we try to prevent crime in your opinion?
Do you feel that the world is worse off or better off with this guy in jail? Perhaps his baby is allergic to anything but pizza and the man has never committed any crime before this?
do you maybe feel that since the police officer was attacked that it is the fault of the people who took down the licence plate and therefore endangered the officer?
chair... nash would vote for kerry in a second... do you see my point now about trying to explain that there is a lot more at stake than just not voting for Bush because you are mad at him.

So lazs...would the use of a gun be justified to stop this horrible pizza crime?
-
that was my reaction when I read your post nash but I explained why... bet you can't.... not so that is makes sense anyway.
you musta known a different class of criminals when you were an addict than I did.... or.... you haven't figured it out/admitted it yet.

I have an irrelvant question... what kind of pizza shop? is there anything in the food industry that actually pays?

LOL, your conclusions are just hilarious. Nash feels sorry for the guy, Nash would vote for Kerry(you think), therefore if you vote for Kerry you are going to let Nash decide what is right and wrong in the whole country.
OK, assuming your very odd leaps of logic make some sort of sense. how does the fact that I am voting for Kerry and I think the guy was just a crime waiting to happen and the sooner they locked his sorry bellybutton up, the better?
your same reasoning when applied to my opinion says "a vote for Bush is a vote for pizza thieves"
-
not exactly capt... for one... you are a citizen and actually can vote in our election... you are not a canadian socialist trying to foist his failed system on a prospering country by advocating a socialist candidate (misery loves company).
kerry is against people defending themselves so no matter how you feel about theives... the most you will be able to do is write down their licence plate if he gets in.
now... if you would have said that you were voting for Bush and you felt that the theif should have been allowed to leave unmolested with the pizza then.... then someone could have maybe concluded that at least one voter for Bush was a wussy liberal who was soft on crime.
It is by no means a stretch to say that liberals are soft on crime. It is by no means a stretch to say that nash is a liberal... it is by no means a stretch to say that kerry is a liberal.
I am merely pointing out the company you will be in if you vote for kerry. unpleasant I know but...

If you are a theif who robs establishments it is a good idea to rob unarmed people. Course... now we gotta feed this guy for a few years...

you could play the same game the other way too.
I believe Ken Lay is a republican, most of those in the savings and loan fiasco a couple decades ago where republicans.
not only where these crooks republicans but had fairly strong ties to the party itself.
this whole thing of trying to paint a whole group with the same brush as some of the members is fairly juvenile.
most of us out grew the idea that you can pigeon hole people by saying "you belong to this group, thats what people in this group think, so I know what you think", and we outgrew it before we got out of elementary school.
you make these elaborate tie-ins, "Kerry's a democrat, so is this guy over here, this guy wants whatever. if you vote for Kerry you'll end up with whatever", it's almost funny but mostly sad and sounds like a really desperate justification, for trying to hold onto belief in a candidate that you're having a hard time convincing your self is worth voting for.
I don't have to make these wild leaps to group people I don't agree with to Bush, in order to find a reason not to vote for him.
Bush himself has shown me enough reason not to vote for him, with a bit of help from his appointees.
-
so you are saying that the democrats have no beliefs or platform? The socialists? Or, are you saying that voting for their candidate does not mean that you agree with their beliefs and platform?
lazs
-
sure they do. show me where in the Dem platform it says they are pro-crime.
-
I'm lending MY support to Chairboy, who got HIS food stolen, and his young pizza driver who was just trying to do his job for his boss - he probably didn't stop to analyze it.
I hope if I ever want more "pizza" than I have means to pay for, I hope that I don't just rip it from a man who works for a living. :rolleyes:
-
Lazs prides himself on his ability to pigeon hole.
... and I'm sure it's a formula that provides him with the most amount of comfort with the least amount of intellectual exertion.
whatever works, and why not? it's funny to read most times.... even if it is the same thing over, and over, and.... over again, no matter how many different topics it gets applied to.
-
Some people would jump off a cliff for pizza.
:D

I wonder if it is just a coincidence that my impression is that most convicts, current prison inmates and felons and members of N.A.M.B.L.A. are liberal, Democratic voters, if they vote at all.

That would be kind of... impossible?

May not be an official party position but some of it's well known members could be accused of being pro-crime. Ever hear of Pardongate?

No, it's a fact. All democrats/liberals are degenerate scum and should be killed. All republicans/conservatives are saints and should be followed mindlessly because there's no reason to question their motives, which are pure as the driven snow.

no coincidence at all. I fully suspect 'your impression' to be molded into whatever makes you feel good about yourself or your beliefs, regardless of any actual facts one way or the other.
impressions aren't facts or evidence, it's just 'how you feel' about something or what you believe. it's not really much concern to anybody but yourself.
-
The issue on the table is; Can we generalize about people who self identify as liberals or conservatives?
I think we can say some things that are valid about these groups.
-
Ive heard Dems say that theirs is the "compassionate" party. etc.
"Dems are for raising taxes" and so on...

Truth does exist, Capt Apathy. My impression isn't necesarily wrong because it is an impression.
For example, my impression is that the liberal Democratic Party has more homosexual members than the Republican Party.
I'm not saying its a bad thing, its just my impression that this is so. I don't offer you factual data. I could be right. Or I could be wrong.
But my impression is based on the fact that for many Republican homosexuals, including the "Log Cabin Republicans" have switched parties on the issue of gay marraige alone.
I believe that we can say certain things about the characteristics of groups without resorting to calling these observations "labeling."
I think that coorelations can be meaningful. That is why people study them.
-
I never said truth didn't exist or that your impressions where necessarily wrong.
what I said was they weren't really meaningfully to anyone but you.
impressions are just your take on thing and there are no requirements for people to use any sort of facts or logic when coming up with an impression.
since you can't support your statements, and to be honest have no real idea yourself if they are true or not, they just don't matter to anyone but you.
so, as I said in my first response, I really don't find it a coincidence at all that your impression of the world supports your political beliefs.
it would sort of have to wouldn't it? for any remotely sane person. most people choose a position on a given issue by what they feel is the right or wrong response to a situation. only a lunatic would think that right is on the side of their opponent (or opposing party) yet still put all their faith and support behind the people they think are wrong.
so to some it up. you say you have a negative impression of people who have opposing political views from yours.
and I respond with- duh
-
what I said was they weren't really meaningfully to anyone but you.
Is that your impression?
-
so to some it up. you say you have a negative impression of people who have opposing political views from yours.
This is only another of your preconceptions.

John Kerry on Gun Control
John Kerry is a gun owner and hunter, and he believes that law-abiding American adults have the right to own guns. But like all of our rights, gun rights come with responsibilities, and those rights allow for reasonable restrictions to keep guns out of the wrong hands. John Kerry strongly supports all of the federal gun laws on the books, and he would take steps to ensure that they are vigorously enforced, cracking down hard on the gun runners, corrupt dealers, straw buyers, and thieves that are putting guns into the hands of criminals in the first place. He will also close the gun show loophole, which is allowing criminals to get access to guns at gun shows without background checks, fix the background check system, which is in a serious state of disrepair, and require that all handguns be sold with a child safety lock.
Sounds reasonable.
-
kerry said that he would fight the NRA... the NRA upholds my rights and asks for tougher sentances for crimes committed with guns. kerry has taken photo opps with shumer, finestien and the brady bunch vowing his support for their cause which is the total removal of all handguns from Americans and all semi auto anythings... basicaly they want a british form of "sensible" gun control here.
at gunblast.com they have a banner that changes every week with a new kerry anti gun quote.
I am not a hunter... the second amendment is not about hunting. Child safety locks have not reduced the allready miniscule gun accident rate for children one bit. They are simply another way to add a layer of burocracy to the allready horrendous process of buying and owning a gun.
If you have bought a gun in California lately you know of the multitude of layers of obstacles that are put there to discourage gun ownership.
Make no misstake.. kerry will make a bad situation worse.
