If you don’t steal your meat, you can’t have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don’t steal your meat.

It depends on the races of the employee and the perp...er...I mean, possible victim, you racist!/sarc.

We'll get some signs printed up just in case.

MURDERED FOR MEAT!

NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!

(Kinda catchy, doncha think?)

Antioch, one of my old haunts.

I remember when Antioch was a pretty nice town. Back in the 80's and 90's when everything was new. Pittsburg had some rough spots, but once you passed it, Antioch was nice. Now it's a S^%$hole.

I thought “ customers “ generally paid for things.


Normally, but he hadn’t yet got to the checkout counter.

A close friend is a butcher (he calls it "meat cutter") and was attacked by an armed robber. As anyone not on drugs would have guessed, a butcher who is already holding a cleaver is more than a match for an unskilled man with a knife. He sincerely regrets the way he disarmed the robber. I still smile over the outcome, just not in front of my friend.

If those were the only types of customers they had they’d be broke pretty quickly :)

“Every time you go away, you take a piece of meat with you.”

The store has a no questions asked return policy, but it won’t help this guy.

17.3% black in 2010, almost 2x the % in 2000. It would not be surprising if that % has climbed yet again, and that the customer was black. Maybe BLM will loot burn down picket the store.

In Seattle this would be considered a survival crime by the customer and the employee would face manslaughter charges. I kid you not.
