Youngsters caught shoplifting on cctv-mom looks on

    ffs what is going on at all :mad:-
    http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/most-popular/2011/08/27/youngsters-shoplifting-under-guidance-from-mum-caught-on-cctv-115875-23374376/
    TWO tiny thieves are captured on CCTV stealing from a newsagent – egged on by their mother.
    The pair, a boy aged around four and a girl aged six, targeted the shop during a busy lunch hour.
    The girl is seen jumping on to the fridge and moving smaller cans of energy drink Red Bull to get a larger one, seemingly under the guidance of her mum at the door.
    The shopkeeper told the child to get down, but she just ignored him and carried on in her quest for the £2.40 can. She then turns towards the door, and was heard to shout: “This one, mum?”

    Copying his older accomplice, the younger boy, who is at eye level with a 3ft high shelf of cereal bars, helps himself to snacks.
    He then follows the girl as they run out of the shop, in Liverpool, with their spoils.
    Shop owner Sammi Mohammed said: “I just fear for the future for those kids if they grow up thinking that is OK, that it is a normal thing to do. I had customers in the shop and by the time I’d got out they were long gone. What could I have done anyway? They were small children.”

    Ignorant stereotypical comments being the main one, right?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    When I read that story yesterday I couldn't believe it made the news.

    This goes on all the time in my place.
    A certain "ethnic minority" (as they like to be known) are the culprits 99% of the time.

    Father or mother walks into shop with 5, 6, 7 year old etc. Father approaches shop assistant dragging said assistant down to the back of the shop while child goes in opposite direction and attempts to take what they can. Happens all the time.

    It's really comforting to see these parents bringing up their children to be such law abiding angels!

    In other Bullcrap news Daniella Westbrook has found God.
    Perhaps these kids should be taken from their mother and raised by her instead. I have a feeling she's got a nose for good parenting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    Its everyone elses fault in the world apart from the parents. These kids have no opportunities and are rebeling against the man etc etc etc blah blah facking blah

    I have confronted parents on seeing this. They actually do not give a flying ****, it's normal for them.

    I know people are going to tell me I should mind my own business but these kids were fleecing the place!

    I believe they have been campaigning for that yes.

    Don't get me wrong we have some great customers from that background also. Extremely nice people.

    Is this supposed to be shocking?

    If AH has thought us anything at all we must do one of two things.

    Increase the single parent allowance and give the kids a knighthood or send them all to jail. Forever. In Morocco.

    Well, yes. Minority might be a bad word to use but they certainly want to be recognized as their own ethnic group.

    ...?? Do you actually understand the argument you are attempting to rebutt, or is it just a vague aquantance that you have with it before deciding, **** it, I don't need to understand it, I can just debate it the next time I hear a crime story with a bit of inaccurate condescending bull****, no-one will notice...?

    Bra-vo.

    Absolutely disgraceful, but unfortunately not all that shocking given the fact that [insert non-objectionable colloquialism] are having kids who turn out to be even bigger [insert non-objectionable colloquialism]
