Is Anyone Else Rooting for the UES Cell Phone Snatcher? (buy, title)

[WhyRUMad]

The guy rides around on his bike and does bike drive by cell phone snatching focusing on the IDIOTS walking while burying their face in their smart phone.

I can’t stand these people, especially the ones who stand in the subway stairs. Get the **** out of my way!

They deserve it... yes or no?

Yea I'm sorta rooting for him. At least until they have dedicated phone-idiot slow lanes on the sidewalk.

Yeah for root him until he does it to you or someone you care about....

As soon as I saw the title of the thread, I knew it would be a black guy.

UES liberals. My phone got snatched, but at the same time I don't want to call the police on a black guy. Should I buy a new iPhone? Or call the police on the black guy and I might be labeled a racist and won't be able to get a job.

I hate those people walking around looking at their phones as much as the next guy,

but f- all thieves. Seriously. I hope any and every thief steps in front of a bus.

Still waiting for that day that someone thinks they can snatch my phone or anyone I'm with, pow pow...I'll be the real hero then...
