Whatever you believe the causes of society’s problems are “just let people steal stuff” is not going to bring about a solution.

Whatever you believe the causes of society’s problems are “just let people steal stuff” is not going to bring about a solution.
- wolverine876 5y agoCan you give evidence of anyone saying that? The only people who say it are reactionaries spreading disinformation.
- imgabe 5y agoWell, my first clue is that there's all these people stealing stuff. Then the authorities decline to prosecute, in other words, they let them steal stuff. I admit I am making an assumption that they are doing this with the belief that it will solve some of society's problems. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that they are not actively trying to make things worse.
- Wiseacre 5y agoYou are making quite a few assumptions. So what will you do when you booked a thief but the jail is at staff capacity?
- imgabe 5y agoSounds like you’re making an assumption that the jail is at capacity. Nobody said anything about the jail being full. What’s your plan if the jail is at capacity ? Stop enforcing the law? Anarchy?
- wolverine876 5y agoSo that is your belief, your words, not theirs. What are they actually saying?
