Jawwaad127

Fucking clowns. A person just trying to feed themselves and these cowards want to steal probably their only form of transportation and way to make a living.

Illumini24

Problem is that everyone has a gun, including the three fuckers taking the scooter. Guns would just increase the chance of a robbery turning into a homicide


Jeefy-Beefy

Every statistic says otherwise. Look at crime rates in cities with more gun control.


Illumini24

Those stats you make up on your own? All stats I've seen show that countries with difficult access to guns have a lot fewer gun related homicides. (Very surprising, I know)


Ratathosk

We've had a couple of school shootings the past ten years here in Sweden but the thing is they didn't have access to guns so they used sword and axe. Gun control works but america isn't interested.


tripsypoo

No point telling Americans it's harder to shoot people without a gun - it's written into their constitution that the need them everywhere and they have to sing to flag every day at a school that more or less only teaches the shortest history course ever (American history).


[deleted]

tripsypoo

It's not just trump or north Korea or america, it's usually newer countries, recent regime changes, dictatorships and iffy political stints or wartime - it's done to cement a sense of national pride, making the individual more aligned with the idea of being part of the state and their interests.


BerbsMashedPotatos

Agrees in Canadian. AND we have universal healthcare! America is a shit hole in comparison.


Jeefy-Beefy

You still bow to the queen. Your words mean nothing


BerbsMashedPotatos

Facts is facts, Jack.


Jeefy-Beefy

Correct. It's almost like we have a mental health crisis here and not a gun problem. Guns that have been around for hundreds of years have to be the problem, though! It can't be the fact that we practically don't have a system in place for those in crisis. People who are mentally sound don't commit mass shootings or attempt suicide. https://usafacts.org/data-projects/firearms-suicides/


Jeefy-Beefy

Keyword gun related. But I understand that you'd prefer more crime overall if that means less gun violence!


befarked247

You can own guns in Australia https://imgur.com/a/ICpXwad Homicides in 3rd largest city in Australia 6 per year https://imgur.com/a/Kh10ehY Dunno must be in the water


mrmicawber32

Didn't they ban types of guns after a school shooting and it had a huge impact and reduced shootings?


Sure_Depth_3081

Its in london england they dont have guns


FixedExpression

Hurry Durr! Try reading what the commentors said again


MSD_TheKiwiBirdFruit

At least bother reading the comment you're replying to before just spouting nonsense lol


drumpleskump

Look at it from the other side.. In texas the thieves would also have guns. Do you want to die defending your vehicle?


RedRedditor84

In a place like South Africa, they'd have shot the rider dead and then took it.


womb0t

Nope, no country wants to end up like America and risk being shot by every madcunt you walk past. Your life is worth more than a scooter, and im fairly sure you must have insurance to drive I most europe. Keep your guns and mass shootings.


Overall-Courage6721

Lol this is so not the case Look at all the crime in the US


BeepSpeep

I like how in this made up scenario the delivery driver has a gun but the gang of criminals don't


ddd615

You are writing bs that ignores reality. I live in a major US city with lots of evil crime, high gun ownership, and poor punishment. I see the stories of the "good boy" monsters, but if you look past those few stories you will find 1000's that don't fit your trope.


Economy-Category-936

Isn't it obvious he's taking the piss? Doesn't actually think the people that are stealing the bike are 'good boys' lol


boogalordy

I share your sentiment. I've lived a fortunate life so if this injustice were inflicted upon me I would be materially unaffected for the most part notwithstanding the PTSD. For someone who might barely be making ends meet and has very little recourse, this assault at minimum disrupts their entire life's trajectory and quite likely shortens their life expectancy.


HowlingBadger43

That's a lot of big words to just say "sucks to suck, loser. Good thing I'm rich so could just buy another"


goodest_englush

That's cause it's AI-generated.


ILovePersonaliTits

What a boogalordy of a comment. "I grew up fortunate, anyways, that sucks what happened to him."


Vimjux

I think you need to work on yourself if your first instinct is to assume someone grew up with a silver spoon in their mouth from that comment.


FungusAmongus92

Probably Americans🤣


Sure_Depth_3081

It says london in the description


FungusAmongus92

It was a joke. I am American and it looks like the same shit that goes down here. Love all the down votes. 🤣


Optimal_Risk_6411

Title was misleading. On mopeds after they take it. As opposed to thieving on mopeds. Was expecting that.


Singern2

Damn, dude just trying to make a living, scum.


[deleted]

So are they. That's the cause of all of these things.


Singern2

An honest living, they're just bottom feeders.


badpolyl13

Kindly go fuck yourself. These are thieves stealing from a guy who just wants to feed himself and his loved ones.


WhoYaTalkinTo

They are, but they're choosing an easy route that targets innocent people and takes from them.


[deleted]

I think it's more circumstance. The whole concept of having to earn a living creates those kinds of circumstances all over the world. It's a damn shame, because there's more than enough to go around if we would just let go of that idea.


jupiterding25

I'm not being funny but as someone who lives in the UK, most of these sorts are just scum bags. Most of them are on benefits and outright refuse to work.


MatMcMashadar

Shame he didn't immediately crash it into a lamppost and end up in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, only for someone to one day steal his wheelchair.


Aggravating-Host-752

Welp with a few upgrade on the wheelchair, he could have even delivered some pizza.


OneExhaustedFather_

How does this person happen to be filming this? Like have they filmed multiple thefts at this spot and instead of calling authorities let’s just get internet clicks.


Naughteus_Maximus

Most likely simply heard a commotion and started filming. Maybe they tried to steal another scooter just before that and failed


CubeBrute

Implying they couldn’t have also contacted the authorities


TheOgrrr

The police in England don't bother with thefts any more. 


yrurunnin

A video can be very useful to the police!


karpet_muncher

I wouldn't be surprised if they knew about it before hand. Or maybe that's a regular mugging spot the cammer recognised them standing around and knew it was gonna happen


LineSlayerArt

Poor guy😰😰😰


Few_Worth4350

Did the police catch them?  Have you heard any updates about what happened?


apsofijasdoif

lol


America-always-great

London police don’t do anything something like ~93% of bike crimes are ever solved. So I’d say about the same for mopeds. It will probably be in the ivory cost in a few weeks.


Ace123428

The way you wrote this makes it seem like 93% of cases are solved, did you mean to say “are never solved” instead of “are ever solved”?


SadMap7915

Other than the grammar being a bit wacked, the stat to which you refer from 2023 and refers to is bicycles, *not* motorbikes. In the UK, in the 12 months to May 2023 there were 9,492 motorcycles stolen (down on the previous 12 months). Of that 5,983 were recovered, a 63% recovery rate (in that same period in London, 2,353 bikes were stolen). Sources: Bike Social, Motorcycle Minds, BBC and Met Police.


mozgw4

Doubt it will go abroad - it will be used to commit more crime, like drive-by snatches of mobile phones, and then dumped somewhere.


slothagus82

Like something from the third world. This country is fucking finished


UGMadness

Tories will just use this to further cut the social safety net while they build their luxury fallout shelters for when the inevitable happens.


Chygrynsky

Time for V to show up and fuck the system up!


SwedishSaunaSwish

You need the OG evil Diane - who's a saint compared to most these days.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Techno_WaffleFrisbee

Everyone deserves a safety net. One of the factors in these things is poverty. People brought up fighting over scraps can go in many different directions, this being one of them. Better social care has been proven to reduce crime in many places.


no_life_matters

Decent chance that's exactly where they learned it. Seen plenty of videos of people in Central/South America as well as Africa employ the exact same strategy 


[deleted]

[удалено]


BRIStoneman

Like Britain's never had violent crime.


Pilatus

Most people have never heard of highwaymen, never leaving the boundaries of the village unless in a group and armed... the default setting of society is pockets of relative safety in numbers in a sea of robbery and murder.


jupiterding25

With all respect, the UK isn't that bad as someone who lives there. Sure its tough atm but let's not fucking pretend this country is Third World. If you seriously believe that, you need to travel more.


KapitanRubbish

Third world doesn't have this shit. They at least have good countryside, good god fearing people. This is just Karma coming back to Britain.


Low-Management-4642

london is done lol


sarinonline

>the murder rate in St Louis is 64.9 per 100,000 residents, according to the Major Cities Chiefs Association Violent Crimes Survey, which is **43 times higher than London** London for being a world major city actually doesn't do too bad, especially compared to many American cities.


Advice2Anyone

Miss chance to say London has fallen


Ace123428

Gerard Butler isn’t here so who will save London?


VetTechian

Simon Peg and Nick Frost!


antonycrosland

Still one of the safest major cities in the world. Edit: Getting downvoted, but it's true: [https://impact.economist.com/projects/safe-cities/](https://impact.economist.com/projects/safe-cities/)


Low-Management-4642

talking about the future, the snowball efect is real, saw the same bs on my city


sjuas690

Hardly a helpful comment when you’ve just had your source of income stolen!


sjuas690

Why all the down votes? - you think it’s ok for a guy to have his source of income stolen?


wontonruby

It’s not don’t be jealous you can’t afford it


KurumiAkai

cant afford to go there and get robbed?


wontonruby

Lol another one


Gopnikolai

Not even Londoners can afford London mate. That's kind of what 'cost of living crisis' means.


Industrious_Villain

😂


backcountry57

I left the UK 10 years ago, the last few years the UK has gone downhill, and getting worse every day


Norfsouf

Left in 08, I remember when the news was ‘1 teenager on teenager murder a week’. I went back in 18’ and read the paper on a Sunday and there were three murders on Saturday night. I don’t miss that place at all.


Phyllis_Tine

Go back and help out!


Superbead

Someone will soon be along to insist that mobile phone video and social media has only been around for a couple of years, and this kind of behaviour has actually been going on at exactly the same rate for centuries


NocNocturnist

I'm sure they are going to sell those mopeds and give the money to the poor.


Vimjux

These kids are one day going to realise how fucked up this is. This isn’t some dude commuting on a c2w scheme bike, you’ve literally stolen bread from his, and if he has one, his family’s mouth.


Naughteus_Maximus

They will not. They are by now totally selfish and immoral, they will never repent or turn back from this life


godson21212

Those kids are never gonna grow old, the best thing that could happen to them is to end up in prison. At least they'd live a while longer.


tobaknowsss

This is what happens when there are no consequences to actions anymore. Fucking scum.


bayoughozt

Stopping the moped was probably not the best move there.


cravos90

I miss the times when thieves got their hands chopped off for stealing generally in europe.


Cornishlee

Why was someone filming “randomly”?


laterral

An equally important PSA: Please replace your smoke alarm battery. 🤷


PHotocrome

These dudes wouldn't survive an hour in Brazil. The delivery boy would've robbed them instead.


OwnedYou

England is the nicest 3rd world country


Eternallygr8

🔫


T800pug2

had me thinking this was a 3rd world country footage for a second... oh wait!


TheHorrificNecktie

sad that UK citizens cant even own weapons to defend themselves from these future doctors


prestonpiggy

It's getting hard to not see color nowadays. This and riots (always on fancy street to robber) always a certain point is same. Sure football hooligans are a menace but all harm they do is beer cans and piss everywhere plus noise.


prestonpiggy

Link me video of white guy doing this and i give you 5 videos.


0b0011

I tell ya. Londinium has really gone downhill since the Romans left.


Azy83

You can’t even get your food delivered in London


conundrum-quantified

East London- need I say more? 🙄


parfenrogozin

Replace the batteries man.. Pls


ravibkjoshi

Is question why were they filming… it seems like they could have been in on it


EvilDog77

The thieves weren't being openly jewish so nothing will come of it.


Gareth79

Probably a bit of an obscure reference for most readers on here! To those unaware, a Jewish man was threatened with arrest by a Met Police officer (London) for refusing to leave the area of a pro-Palestinian protest because he was "visibly Jewish".


MewSixUwU

i would have tackled one of the thiefs and not let him go till police arrive


Gareth79

You'd end up kicked in the head by the others, or a machete in your neck if you are less lucky.


Ace123428

That’s how you end up dead


MrMisanthrope411

Pepper spray works wonders.


Drumtochty_Lassitude

And will end up getting you a nice stay at one of His Majesty's fine hotels for your bother.


MrMisanthrope411

Pepper spray is illegal there? That’s wild.


Drumtochty_Lassitude

Yup. Most things are classed as offensive weapons. Pepper spray falls under section 5 of the firearms act, so there could in theory be jail time involved for just possession. However, I do know that Nivea for men 48 hour deodorant sprayed carelessly into an eye because you never checked where the nozzle was pointing will leave you unable to see properly for a few hours, with sore eyes for about 2 days and is probably perfectly legal to have just bought from the shop and not be in your possession for self defence specifically. That was the oddest ever sickie I phoned in to work and they took the piss for weeks.


Old_Fart52

Shit like this is why I stay out of English ctties altogether, especially London. I used to be a biker in my younger days, still take an interest through You Tube and these gangs of thieves have become like a plague in London & ssurrounding areas now


Agent_S721

Is there real men left in london or all became something else?


Fun_Plantain5129

So randomly rude


thickeningdick

The food is killing us bruv
