Funny how only this one particular petty crime got posted too, with a clearly photographed, clearly Black person. Maybe I'm just jaded by other blatant racism bubbling up, but this feels odd.

They literally stole a thousand dollars worth of stuff from a store. Hope they get caught!

Now that CPD has the help of r/RI’s top minds like orangefan71 and uncletony96, I’m sure they’ll be behind bars in no time!!

With the picture of the suspects so close and clear, CPD won’t need my assistance this time. Plus, I don’t offer my services for free ;)

You shouldn’t be expecting any more than the people working the counter at sunglass hut since you think that’s a fair wake for corporations to pay their employees you shouldn’t expect to be paid anymore yourself. So hop to it and solve that crime for $13.50 an hour!

How much did it take to manufacture those goods! How many underpaid exploited laborers in third world countries were stepped on for those products to be shipped here and then be sold by someone who isn’t making enough money to afford rent and other basic living expenses.
If you have sympathy for corporations loosing profit and not the workers they exploit to take those profits from you then you have your head up your ass.

So since many companies use very cheap labor in other countries, that gives you the right to walk into stores and just take whatever the hell you want without paying? You leftists are why police needs to exist
ExploitedAmerican t1_j7wg1ro wrote
Police need to exist but discriminatory ideologies like the war on drugs which was entirely built on racial and socio economic discrimination does not. Police might have a little more respect in society if a majority of their funding wasn’t to harass people who sell drugs to consenting adults. It’s ridiculous that people selling drugs to consenting adults get threatened with decades of prison time meanwhile when Jeffery Epstein raped children he served 14 months with 72 hours weekly work release. Defund the police is the wrong slogan but ending the illegal unconstitutional prohibition of mind altering substances would effectively defund the police. Meanwhile more people die as a result of consuming alcohol and tobacco every year than do of all illegal drugs combined. But you conservatives are just too stupid to understand logic.
Companies who’s products are made for pennys by paying children and other exploited people in countries where they have no labor rights and then go and pay laborers in America wages that don’t afford them to have a life worth living they deserve no sympathy. They shouldn’t be allowed to run their buisiness model only exists because they can legally get away with stepping on people. These companies don’t deserve the right to make profits when the cost for their products is kept artificially low by stepping on weak human beings who have no means to fight their own exploitation. And the prices they sell these products for is just disgusting. As soon as those sunglasses walk out the door they loose more than half their value and then they’ll end up in a landfill less then 6 months after they’ve been purchased. But go ahead and defend the indefensible.

Excuse me buddy??? I know if I was the victim in this case, I would want these low lives' photo plastered on every single lamp post and media page in the state. Try throwing a little empathy around. It takes a special kind of person to sympathize with a thief, and I do NOT mean that in any complimentary way.

People are being unfair and mean to Mr. Sunglass Hut. He works hard everyday to bring the people quality name-brand sunglasses at affordable prices and he doesn't deserve to be attacked for that!

It's on me. I should've worked it into there to begin with.
