I understand the strong human urge to confront injustice (theft), but if the employer has advised you not to pursue anyone, and they don’t care, I sure as shootin’ ain’t going to risk my life pursuing some undocumented Democrat.
All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to stand by and do nothing.
I can understand where you are coming from in your comment.
On the other hand, the good Samaritan here may have saved some ones life by apprehending the perp (though we will never know). Everyone faced with such a choice must make their own decision based on the circumstances they see, but I am thankful there are still some out there willing to “do the right thing” in an upside down society.
