If you drink it in the store it’s free.

Everyone knows that.

The dude was probably a liberal expecting somebody else to pay for him. After all, isn’t that why God created others?

I can see doing that if I actually had not stolen the soda.

The story does not saw how the man got to the store. He may have skipped out of a DUI.

I know. That's why you never see grapes in anyone's house. They never made it to the scanner.

Yeah, when does the “free bubble up” start? Store probably charges for “rainbow stew”, too. Damn these mercenary capitalist pigs!

He still could have paid for the pop and just walked around outside until the officer was gone. But I like your thinking.

Stupid hell, this was Altoona, it gets cold, he slept in a warm cell. Free room and board for a stolen coke, not too shabby if you are homeless or the wife kicks you out.

Ok...what is rainbow stew? I know M Haggard sang about it but I can’t find anything else.

Which is to say we each know just as much about it as the other. Of course, Merle probably couldn’t even explain it either even in his most coherent moments.

Lots of people think that. I find empty (but used) cups by the soda fountain every day.
