devils advocate: what if that person stealing a sandwich turned out to be convicted murderer Robert Durst

On November 30, Durst was caught inside a Wegmans supermarket in BethlehemPennsylvania, after trying to shoplift Band-Aids, a newspaper, and a chicken salad sandwich, despite having $500 in cash in his pocket.

Ok, if you see Robert Durst stealing a sandwich, report him immediately. Otherwise, don't.

What if I see him murdering someone?

Have we considered that maybe he murdered because he had low blood sugar?

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

give him two, he'll have to do the murder with his feet til he finishes one. might give the victim the opportunity they need.

Okay but for all you know he could be murdering a child murderer

I am less inclined to confront an actual murderer. So my answer is nope and noper.

[–] Skua@kbin.social 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Then I sure as fuck don't want to risk a confrontation with a murderer over a supermarket sandwich

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

[–] Lmaydev@programming.dev 7 points 10 months ago

I'd be much less inclinded to get involved with a murderer

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

The answer is a most definite nope.

He wasn't just stealing food. If someone needs food, you look the other way. But non-essentials? That's a different story.
