He shouldn’t need a “reason” to carry his own money, but he is a dumb-arse for not hiding it better!
Again, my point was the lack of information
-gathered and reported on by the reporter-
regarding the reason the guy had that much money.
Then we could decide better ...
If the media don’t report, we can’t decide.
Another example:
Friend of mine is involved with friday evening or weekend school fundraiser such as auction or car wash.... and thus has a boxful of cash to keep till Monday when they can deposit it in the bank....
That bit of infomation makes all the difference in the world.
I’d bet a great percentage of folks would be irate to hear of a PTA board member being relieved of the funds raised for the football team or local charity.
Again I am reminded of the phrase “we report, you decide”.
The “why” is part of due diligence in reporting..... without that, we can’t very well make informed decisions.
