This statement is something that I dont understand. While yeah, if that would happen to a big store, it might be alright but if I ran a corner store, I wouldnt be okay with this.

Also people who steal food here are gypsies and narcs. Normal people with financial difficulties get their goods from government, food shelters, churches and other help associations.

Now, I've been fucking dirt poor, I've gone sleep hungry, I've had to walk to every place instead of taking public transit. Still I've never thought about stealing food.

    I’ll try to help fam. The hungry deserve to eat and they have the moral high ground over the ownership class that would rather that person starve and the food they stole destroyed.

    Could you present a weaker strawman if you tried?

    You aint solving hunger by stealing ribeyes crabs and lobsters.

    Normal people that struggle financially seek help from the government, they go to food banks, there is help to get without having to resort to stealing.

    You don't just wake up one morning and all of a sudden have to steal to survive. This isn't the US. (The hint is in the £ sign)

    Because drug addicts are famously affluent and gypsies don't need food at all. Also capitalism is widely known for taking care of the people in need and no one ever goes hungry or homeless unless they want to.
