Fuck I hate your country. On my 20th birthday 18 years ago my friends stole a US flag from an American summerer’s cottage and we got drunk and went crazy on it - stomped and danced and pissed on it and finally set it on fire. For awhile I looked back at that as being pretty stupid but I kinda relish the memory again…

I think we’re getting closer to pinpointing exactly when we were put in the Matrix.

You don’t need a fucking lawyer; you need a FUCKING lawyer.

Come on, now, Forrest Gump wasn’t THAT retarded.

I think it only seems that simple to you because you’re a little simple. Which is okay! We’re all different!

Sorry Georgie-boy, you’re still wrong. If your initial reaction was, “Hey, he stole the ball from that kid!” all the additional information should change it too is, “Hey, that guy who was nice enough to give a ball to that kid earlier, just stole the ball from that kid and gave it to another kid!” None of the other…

You say “bro” too much.

I agree with you on this one - this guys an asshole. I’m as socially left as it gets - I just think the first kid should have been given the choice to share the ball that seemed pretty clearly his.

Objection! Irrelevant.

Not at all - and I’m not spewing any bad lessons here - if it was my 3-year old son in that situation I’d say hey buddy since you already have a ball do you want to give this one to that little boy over there who doesn’t have one? Knowing my kid it’s about a 75% chance he’d say yes. Or he’d probably say no at first…

But if you dropped the coupon and someone picked it up and said that guy over there needs it more than you, you’d be pissed right?

You are insane to think that. I don’t lack empathy - I understand that this isn’t a sad story and that no one was hurt too badly and some people were made happy that wouldn’t have been BUT the ends don’t justify the means. It’s like if a rich kid had three bikes and I stole one to give to a poor kid. Sure it’s minimal…

lol...okay, I was just suggesting a compromise. But I don’t think there’s anything wrong with posing that question to a child AS you give it back to him. I have a 3-year-old - he gets stuff like that. But he also might just say, “No! Mine” And that would be fine too.

I know, I know, you “sports guys” hate smart people, I get it.

The player clearly tosses the ball TO the kid. Not in his general direction. TO him. It touches him. I’m sure that there are some legal nuances to this kind of thing that would technically make it that the ball had not become the kid’s property (perhaps we could consult the NFL’s catch rules?) and that legally he had…

He’s right and should definitely not apologize.

The take is right and you should feel wrong.

I’d say that claiming ownership of something just because someone dropped it is objectively wrong.

I’d prefer that when someone is given something, it not automatically become someone else’s property just because they dropped it.
