Shocking video shows a child gleefully shouting "I got it" after swiping a package from a front porch. When the Florida homeowner realized her package was missing, she checked her Ring camera video. That's when she saw the pint-sized porch pirate. The kid is being called the "littlest porch pirate" but it's the adult who is being accused of telling the youngster what to do.

Put your dog’s excrement into a box, tape it up and leave the box out front.
Do you sense any remorse or hesitation on the kids part here? As if this activity bothers them and goes against what they have been taught so for during their short life?
Looking for a glimpse of humanity, a la Boy’s Town spirit...

I grew up in Houston when you could leave all your windows open and the front door unlocked while the house was empty and the gun cabinet display in the living room was common furniture, keys left in the cars, and bicycles left in the yard, kids had the run of all the outdoors, and businesses walking and riding bikes everywhere they wanted to go as long as they were home by dark.
Look up Mark Rober.
He has some hilarious ways of dealing with porch pirates.
I watched Mark Rober on YouTube doing several glitter-bomb and fart spray packages to get back at the thieves. In one, a mother and son are gleefully opening the stolen package. Then the glitter and fart spray hit. You can hear the kid say something along the lines of “we got scammed.” As if it was his package and someone did them wrong. Generational losers who will never break out of the loser cycle.
How could they feel remorse? These are the things they’re learning during their formative years. This is why so many adults act criminally and immorally without remorse.
I’ve seen teens caught stealing. When asked “Why did you take that when you know its not yours” they respond “I want it.”
Are these people opening the packages at the places they steal them, right on the porch? How does he get them opening the packages on video?
You can hear the kid say something along the lines of “we got scammed.”
That’s a lot like when someone who doesn’t work but collects the “child tax credit” and says “I got my taxes.”
Its the entitlement mentality.
KNIFE or muscle strength.
How do you open yours?
Kids were used to make deliveries of narcotics
in my neighborhood.

Kids less likely to steal it.
Rotten cultures breed rotten breeders who raise rotten kids to perpetuate the cycle.
Well said.
Indeed.
It’s too bad that the homeowner didn’t fire a gun at the child.
He actually works with a cell phone company and puts a phone on each of the four sides of the package. The packages are really marvels of engineering. They work to both track the package and to record the audio/video. He has made them to have the look and feel of high-value items.
Glitter Bomb 1.0 vs. Porch Pirates
Each time he upgrades with better tech or a different style of packaging or differing targets (the latest versions are in San Francisco targeting the thieves breaking into cars).
50 years ago my dad used his reloading skills to load up shot gun rounds with fast burning powder (I think bullseye) to max the brass would hold. He then crimped and put them in a box and they looked like new. He would then leave the car unlocked in a nearby city and when he returned the box would be gone. No idea if his scam worked but I know he laughed about it for a long time afterwards.
And lobotomized.
Poor kid. *sigh. May God protect his spirit from further harm from these evil people.
