Man shot trying to retrieve his stolen phone.

It's that crazy gun violence.


Edited title as it was London Ontario and not London England.

Also impossible because there is no such thing as "gun violence". Inanimate objects are incapable of any action without the intervention of another entity. :mad5

I don't do those things to other people and I require the same of them.

Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.

Sad thing is, at least here in Houston, is that the po-po are entirely uninterested in coming to help you retrieve a stolen phone, despite the presence of the tracking info. So you're own your own to retrieve it, or write off the loss.

RHenriksen,

If they're unwilling to help recover a phone, what else will they not help you with?

P.S. Did you learn about the non-recovery of a phone from personal experience?

Thanks!

Yes, I got back my gf's stolen phone w/o police help, and w/o violence.
