Witnessed a bike thief get street justice !
I was ripping around Toronto real late...1am on a Wed as I was off the following day.
I was sitting down on a bench having some water when a thief walked up to what looked like a Fuji feather with a bolt cutters. Two dudes got off a city bus and attacked this guy. Brutal beating ! The thief was eventually unconscious and naked. What was wild was that one dude could really box as the thief was held up and the dude was doing some combination punches on the unconscious and naked thief !! I finished up my water and rode off.... As I passed the ko'd thief I wondered ... What's better ???? Calling the cops for them to show up 30 mins later if at all??? Or administering the punishment on the spot ? |
Seems a bit extreme, but I like the idea that someone stepped up and did something.

What if it was his bike and he had lost the key. Stupid to maybe kill someone over a bike.

PSA: Take a picture of you with your bike now. And have that picture with you.
If you do need to cut your lock, you can prove it's your own bike. |
do ppl really lock up $5K bikes?
if I had one I would not get off it, except at home |

News flash !!
People don't lock up 5000$ bikes and cut them off with bolt cutters..... That is a fantasy. People steal 5000$ bikes with bolt cutters lol |
There is over 100 murders in Toronto each year, do you think the police actually care about a stolen bike?

Best to administer the beating on the spot |
All too often the police do their jobs only to see the criminals released without punishment by the courts and their politicians...er um...officials.
Taking matters into one's hands is the result of a court system that is all about pushing a political agenda instead of following the rules of law. |

I cleaned up the thread. Talking about locations that are red/blue and guns belong only in P&R. Let’s keep discussions on advocacy and safety
