Down in Colombia if the cops can’t or won’t handle the problems in the barrio, which happens often, the locals chip in to hire death squads (often off duty cops) to fix the problem. They call it social cleansing and the killers will distribute flyers saying that the time is coming for all drug dealers, addicts, hookers, gays, etc to get the fuck off the streets. It’s not uncommon for a dozen or more people to be killed in a weekend by vans full of masked up dudes with pistols. Rapists and pedos are often hanged in the street, I think on average a few guys are killed that way every week in Bogota.

Anyway, I would fully support the Colombian style mass shooting and lynching of these porch thieves.

That seems a bit harsh, considering that most of these porch thieves are paid actors.

That Rober dude is engaging in deceptive infotainment, hope he pays the price for this.

I actually lost a package recently, after not arriving I called up Amazon and they said it was delivered to my apartment building. So I asked some questions and apparently it’s routine for packages to be left in unsecured apartment entrances where anyone can walk off the street and snatch them. Fortunately they refunded me but from now on I will request a pick up at the local shipping depot in my city.

Still, I was pretty pissed, I would definitely like to see the thief die.

There's a better option involving shotgun blanks.





The dude was flooded with so many requests for instructions on how to rig one up, he made a side business out of it.

Why arn't people using mailboxes? And fences?

In my country everyone uses mailboxes for package receiving so such a problem is unthinkable.

This is something American have not thought over.

Also - Americans claim they have a lot of freedom but they are not allowed to fence off their front yard, so I have read.

This problem would not exist if the whole yard would be separated by fence and postal service didn't just left packages at door, but at mailbox or post station.

It seems absurd to me how selective people are when fighting about their rights and privacy - worrying about privacy on net but fencing off front yard is so accepted it is not even considered.

Think about it - your culture puts great emphasis on keeping that lawn beautiful for every neighbor to see. It is your private land but you work hard to keep up a territory you can have no privacy in, that you cannot use because it is too public. It is irrational.

All those anecdotes about an American guy guarding his perfectly mowed lawn with a shotgun - how about building a fence? Much less active attention required, much less violence required, much less legal troubles. Much more privacy, much more land can be used as you see fit.

Such simple things but utterly out of order due to cultural prejudices and irrational habits.

People are going to call me no fun and party killer for suggestion to buld a fence and use a mailbox - but hey you know what - fences work, walls work, mailboxes work.

Americans display a lot of fake bravado about using their guns. In your heart you know you will not use a gun over minor issues like that, because you don't want to go to prison for using excessive force for killing a guy for stepping on your lawn. Rights to bear arms are good, but you must be realistic about when you are really free to use them.

You have a lot of rights to own guns, but very few rights to actually use them and you know it. But this is again another example of you turning a bling eye to one instance of freedoms and overrating another instance of freedoms.

That's only if you live in a planned development managed by a homeowner's association. In most of America, the only limitation is that it cannot be over four feet tall in the front.

Amazon has now installed self service lockers in grocery stores that you can have a package delivered to. The maximum size is 19 x 12 x 14 inches and maximum weight is 20lbs. It also must be from Amazon, contain no hazardous materials and have a value lower than $5000.

4 - feet is kind of low, easy to climb over. In the free world you can build a fence of 5-6 feet as long as a human height. You can also make it spiky

Also service lockers exist in the free world of EE a long time ago, and you can put in any type of package sent from everyone and there is no weight limit.

If you get a too big a package you get a notice about it in mailbox, then with that notice and personal ID you go to your local post service to collect it.

That article makes him sound like the victim, actually.

Quote:'I was presented with information that caused me to doubt the veracity of 2 of the 5 reactions in the video,' Rober wrote on Twitter after the video went viral. 'These were reactions that were captured during a two week period while the device was at house 2 hours away from where I live.'

He said he had offered to compensate anyone willing to put out the package on their doorstep if the package got stolen from their porch and recovered with usable video. A friend of a friend offered.

'It appears (and I've since confirmed) in these two cases, the ''thieves'' were actually acquaintances of the person helping me,' he wrote. Rober has since cut them from the video.

Come to think of it, the two videos in question stood out to me as different from the other three. Sounds like they accepted his 'compensation' but fakes the whole thing. Low trust everywhere.
