Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65881654 How do we know she had hungry children at home to feed? I applaud the cop for this humanitarian gesture, but.. Generally, folks don't steal eggs and bread unless they are hungry or have mouths to feed. “People have only as much liberty as they have the intelligence to want and the courage to take.” - Emma Goldman |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 65934262 United States 12/10/2014 12:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Would you say that if it was a white lady? What if her husband died in the military? What if he was killed in an auto accident? Easy to judge from a distance huh? That appears to be what you are doing. The odds are that I am right, you know that. There is a small number of instances where the boyfriend or hubby got killed in a non gang/crime related event but the numbers just dont prove that out. We know what we are seeing. And by the way your lats statement kinda nullifies the "As usual, no father to be found" statement huh? |

I just saw this video, and wanted to share, because not all white cops are racist. I know a lot of Cops, they are all privately racist, and for good reason too. They see the racial comparison of behavior everyday. Good video, though. Even though I am a racist against blacks, If I was a cop, I would of done the same thing because im a good person, and it make you feel good to do good for others. Well, you can have your opinions and prejudices, but to say they ALL are privately racist is not true. Agreed. He or she is saying that all the cops he or she knows are racist. How can you argue that point unless you know all the cops he or she knows? |

That made sense.....almost. That did make sense.....definitely! Really? Cause EBT covers Weaves? The ignorance on this thread is astounding. Someone shows an act of decency, and this is how you all see it?

This officer was judge and jury. If she needed a dozen eggs, a lot of people in the store would have bought it for her. But instead of asking her fellow citizens, she decided to steal it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18813144 If I was dirt poor, I would steal eggs to feed my kids. If she was stealing a T.V it would be different, but no one steals eggs unless they are hungry ~~Much Peace, Love, and Light~~Always Concerning life and death: I embrace both equally! |

The Christian in me tells me that the cop was just being Jesus for her that day, that it doesn't matter why she stole it. We all need a little grace and mercy from time to time. An act of kindness like that at the right time for the right person can change a life. The realist in me sees that she was getting in a car and knows that nearly 50 million people are on food stamps already. Talk about your first world problems. Our poor drive themselves to the grocery store! Thanks again for sharing. It may help some to realize that there are some really good folks out there. It may also remind people like me what I'm supposed to do too. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

People do help others like that from time to time. It just doesn't fit the "if it bleeds it leads" paradigm of the news media or the consumers of that "news".
