His point is that the guy who got shot got away without PAYING for the gas! The thief! Lock him up!

I live in West L.A. and yes this is a common thing in Americas big cities, however what have to take into consideration is how many people occupy the city. For every Cold, calloused, apathetic person there is in L.A. there are 50 decent people and at least I dunno........1 or 3 genuinely nice people.............. Awwwww shit man. Who an I kidding, we have a lot of assholes out here

the world is full of unsung heroes and people who are just plain nice. in a local paper, you would hear about someone giving someone else groceries, but you would very likely hear about someone stealing groceries. the media tries to capture your attention, and it seems that the best way to do so is to shock you. that's part of the reason that the world seems so bleak.

That's most of the reason why I'm a journalist. Heh!
