There is a child who knew it was wrong to do a specific thing and chose to do it anyway. In a story in which a person does something they know is wrong to do, causing harm to another, that person would be a villain.

I find it absurd the parents didn’t notice the five dollars before setting down and getting menus...so....I mean is it kinda mean to do that to a kid? Yes and No...if it teaches them not to steal then all the better. I remember stealing a 50 cent piece of candy as a kid...my mom caught us eating it out back when we…

I agree. This was about shaming the parents and the crap parenting they were doing. No way they didn’t realize their little angel was up to something. Unless the kid is a complete sociopath, they were acting off the entire time.

Exactly. She wouldn’t have hidden it if she didn’t know she shouldn’t have taken it.

The child hid the purloined bill - don’t try and tell me she didn’t know wrong from right in this case.

Nah, this seems pretty reasonable.

Kid stole a tip. Kid was caught on security camera. Security footage was posted. Parents returned tip. Video was removed.

Even if the internet is forever, people are going to forget about this after the next thing that happens.

Thanks for a measured and thoughtful take on a complicated Not reading the comments, because I can already imagine the sputtering temper tantrums about the temerity of children for existing in public.

In case you hadn’t realized it, the country is being run by a bunch of pathetic, immature grade-school bullies.

When you won’t get an answer either way it really doesn’t matter.

She’s the most useless person in that admin. Nothing she does or says has value because if it’s not a lie then it’s a statement that has no bearing on anything anyway. She’s constantly undone by Trump even if she isn’t lying.

Peter Alexander is my hero. Some folks on the Twitter had a great idea...when Sucks moves on to a new reporter, they should ask the same question until she answers.

I never noticed that. I’m too distracted by the fact that she keeps looking down at that podium when people are talking to her. The podium that’s totally empty except for that one post-it note she read off of at the beginning. It’s disrespectful the way she doesn’t look at people when they’re speaking. And I feel like…

Totally. Why this has not been done regularly beats the shit out of me.

What would happen if...all the reporters made a deal with each other and said, if I ask a question, and Feckless Cunt doesn’t answer and calls on the next reporter, each reporter just keep asking the same question.

Anyone else notice that Sucks has abandoned her trademark smokey eye? She couldn’t of possibly run out of ash cuz she’s still got plenty of lies.

What’s the point of a Press Secretary that won’t answer any of the press’s questions?

If anyone is a feckless cunt, it’s Smoky Eye Sarah.
