In my local news, a man chased after a couple who stole some gas, got their plate number and continued to tail them until the police showed up. As it turned out they had mutiple warrants, and we found with illegal drugs in large quantities.
But the real story, the real reason this man is a hero, is this license plate.
Yes it says HI SEXY. No 7331 code or anything it just says hi sexy.
Also I can hear Chris Farley singing “fat guy in a little coat”

I thought the punchline was going to be that he chased them on foot.

What a hero. They must have had a hell of a getaway car for him to keep up with them in a damn Yaris. It’s a car!

It’s in the caption to the photo, I just missed it in my rush to fat-shame a stranger on the Internet who did a good thing even though I’m a good 50lbs overweight me self. This is why I don’t comment much lol.

I actually suport a degree of fat shaming. We shouldn’t normalize the idea of being morbidly obese. That would be like normalizing acholism or the use of cigarettes. Imagine what negative effect on society that would have

See I disagree, I don’t support it even though I have a hard time not thinking that way myself, it’s hard not to judge people for something like that but I’m trying to be better about it. From my own personal experience, there are so many factors that play a role in obesity that can be largely outside of a persons control, it should be treated as a disease and not seen as a lack of willpower or self control. Economic status and mental health in particular can both play huge roles and while I agree that everybody should be healthy, a lot of the time there a root causes that need to be addressed first, not just “stop eating twinkies fatty.” I would also argue that smoking and alcoholism ARE pretty normalized, but again, addiction is it’s own issue that can be hard to truly feel empathy for when you haven’t experienced it. Like, I get annoyed at all my coworkers smoking all the time and taking breaks and wonder why they choose to destroy themselves that way but it’s not that simple. I’ve never smoked so I don’t know how hard it is to quit personally but I’ve watched many people try over the years and none have succeeded completely, and I’ve never met a chronic smoker who didn’t want to quit. And while luckily I haven’t been susceptible to that type of addiction, I do display other addictive tendencies that are enough for me to try to second guess that type of snap judgement against people I don’t even know. Sorry to rant, not trying to start an argument, I just see it as a huge problem and one that I myself am part of and have been trying to change, and after I made that comment I was a little ashamed of myself.

Yes, shame is a good tool in preventing people from abusing drugs and alcohol. Very effective...

Ho w do you steal gas?
Had a friend of a friend in highschool who helped a security guard give chase to a shopfilting suspect. Guy turned around and put to in his chest, killing him. Companies have insurance for a reason, and no insurance company is worth dying for.

That's awesome! The dude obviously has a sense of humor.

I’m more like 100 pounds overweight. Nonetheless, if he chose that license plate, the dude can take a joke. I'd like to hang out with this guy.

In wi you pump your own gas and can pump before you pay. So at pretty easy. Getting away with it is the hard part
Also yeah, I’m surprised they put it in the paper because chasing after some one like that is borderline vigilante behavior, and could have easily got this guy killed

Well normalizing the idea, even glorifying it certainly didn’t help

You’re right, it was more about me just trying to shake that mentality, it’s just such a knee-jerk reaction to make fun of fat people but it obviously can be very damaging. Both of my sisters have eating disorders, one binges and is probably 300lbs and the other is anorexic, so I mostly just felt guilty for still cracking a joke about it, when watching my wife try so hard to lose weight with such limited success I should know better.

I gotcha. It's been my lifetime struggle as well. Food is my only vice.
