    There was some UA-cam prankster a few years ago whose "prank" was pretending to mug a complete stranger with a fake gun. But unbeknownst to him, his victim of choice was packing heat. So as you can predict, he was shot dead and the guy wasn't charged since he legitimately thought his life was in danger. Even the dead guy's family wasn't upset with the shooter.

      The first store I believe he truly did rob. The second store I think he knew the owner ( or employee) as they are laughing when fighting for the backpack. If they didn't know him I would imagine they would have had a look of anger, but maybe they are just more forgiving then me lol.

      I mean, when someone does something like this it means that they don't think they can get attention and validation any other way.
      It's why parents who spank their kids when they do something wrong actually incentivize the kids to do bad things because, in the kid's mind, Mommy and Daddy only pay attention to them when they mess up and they scream at them and spank them. It's actually why people actually enjoy being spanked.
      So, what August is doing is spanking the child while we cheer him on and say "Yeah! Spank the brat! In fact, I'll spank him too, we'll all spank him," and that's exactly what they want.
      It's why when Tanner Cook was literally shot his takeaway was "It was worth it to get thousands of subscribers."

People already get the wrong idea about what feminism is and have a lot of hatred towards it and even women in general, and conkwockets like that are only causing that hatred to grow.
