Very interesting, kind of sad. I honestly would have challenged either of the young man but the young woman, not sure what I would have thought.

Try to remember:
maybe 1 in a million bike thefts are stolen by good looking young women.

That's enough to make you sick. Had I not watched the show I'd probably not have believed it. So sad.

And the girl? How does she fit into your definition of racial prejudice. I do agree it's not about profiling it's about stupidity.

It is more than you think. They do not get caught for the reason you just saw.

Any good citizen watching anyone regardless of race trying to cut a chain from a bike using the typical thieves tools should call the police and let them do their job. It is just sickening to watch these so called honest people discriminating once again because of he color of the skin while overlooking the obvious tools of the trade. Unfortunately, this will never end with so many ignorant people walking around. It was like a circus around the boy trying to cut the chain while others offer to help the other two citizens that in their ignorant minds were trying to get their bike. :thumbdown:

The people making the video have a agenda, editing allows them to show whatever they want and how many of the passerby people was in on it ? the whole thing looks very put up to me. In the first place anyone steeling anything will not take that long and in public in the second place put yourself in this scenario you are 60 or 70 years old walking in the park and you come up on what looks like a crime in progress by a 25 yr. old thug and NO ones life is in danger what do you do? IF you had any brains you would call the police without the thug seeing you. What these folks did is called 'acting' old people and women coming up with in a foot or two of the thug to take his picture and endanger themselves and the people with them, this whole video was set up. to verify or "Prove " what what they want to be true or what they believe.
