You guys know as well as I do that calling in a plate to the police for guys stealing beer from Wal Mart would have gotten ZERO immediate action. Police have much bigger issues to deal with. Stolen cars, home invasions, aggravated assaults, traffic accidents, homicides.
You might think that passive action (calling in a plate) was good enough, but in today's day and age, it wouldn't have done squat. I applaud the lady for standing up to the punk criminals. We need more people like her and less wussies who "don't want to get involved".

So youre going to blame the problem on the passive action people instead of the lazy **** cops that wont get off there *** and pursue a shoplifter? Funny how I come from a long line of LEO's and work with a handful and when conversin about the subject all agreed with me that she made a stupid.....albeit rightous.... descision. Tell ya what, ill do what I think I need to do and you do what you need to do. Ive never stood idly by in a situation where I thought I could be of assistance and never will. But im also smart enough to realize when im outnumbered and outgunned. The ONLY time I will ever put my life in jeopardy is in the event of someone elses life being threatened.

This is another entertaining thread. What I like the most is people saying that" this is what is wrong with america". Everytime this forum has a big debate people Always say " this is what is wrong" " this is why this country is going to hell"
There are easily two sides in this argument. Both have a good point. Just because someone doesn't agree with you does that mean they are stupid or a p**** . I don't understand that logic at all.

That is the other thing that makes me laugh everytime I see it in this forum... if you don't like their opinion then they're most likely liberals and Obama voters.

That'll be the next step after everyone tries to stop robberies. We'll all be pussies for not unloading into the getaway car.
I think most are missing the point. Its great that she tried to stop the robbery, BUT DON'T JUMP ON TO A WINDSHIELD of a potentially moving car!!! I would have grabbed the driver and not let him get the keys in the ignition.
Oh and I've actually chased some kids for doing beer runs when I worked for HEB in high school. They dropped the beer so I quit chasing them. I've also held a drunk kid at one of the stores I worked at for the cops after we watching him roll his car into a ditch on HWY 6 at 3am.
Also no one has really mentioned the fact that Walmart "usually" has alot of LP(loss prevention) people in their stores. Where were they at when this lady was jumping on their hood?

Whatever man. Like I said before, you do you and I'll do me. Ask Jay Ersland how this countries legal system plays out when you do the "right" thing and stand up to criminals. And I really dont appreciate being called a ***** and Id bet you $20 you wouldnt say it to my face.
