Florida deputies said the suspect fled the store with the tarpon in hand.
FFS, what is it going to take to get people to stop using Murdoch rags as a source. Don't make them profits by clicking through to their sites.
Keep in mind that not everyone restricts themselves to only pro-progressive reading sources. It's good to read all ends of the spectrum so that you don't find yourself in an information vacuum.
Murdoch news orgs are an information vacuum. People who watch Fox News are less informed than those who watch none at all.
"all ends of the spectrum" is how crazy conspiracies becomes main stream since idiots don't know how to discern between news and propaganda.
Keep in mind that many people restrict their news sources to those not actively hostile to objective truth.
It's also not good to support Murdoch and anything he's associated with given he has effectively used propaganda to influence the politics of several countries for decades.
By engaging with Murdoch media, you do worse than find yourself in an information vacuum, you pollute your existing understanding of events.
That doesn't mean you have to reference bat shit like NYP though...
Take the word "pro" out, and you're solid. I also like to diversify my news intake.
What, now you're telling me the fish pond not for trying out your fishing gear?
My local Cabelas has an archery range for trying out your bow. My local gun store as an indoor shooting range for trying out your gun. My local Land Rover dealership has a little off road course for trying out your truck...
See, this is perfectly logical!
At least the persons involved were smart enough to film the incident so they'd never get caught
It was someone else filming it
@glimse It's been a day or so now but I thought the article said he and two other people went to the store to do this so I assumed it was one of the others filming so they could post it for fake Internet points.
No boomer has boomered as hard as the commenters attached to that article. What's with that? Anybody else ever notice small/local publications and news sites always have the most extreme conservative commenters?
It's the NY Post dude.
I'm going to go with a terminal case of "nothing better to do"
Millennials and Gen Z don't visit web pages; they only use apps.
They're called Zoomers.
I like that they're working with some animal cruelty people. At a hunting and fishing store. Over a guy who netted a fish without hooking it and dragging it through 50 feet of water to reel in.
I mean, I get it, but it's still kinda funny. Guy scooped up a fish in a net: animal cruelty.
Florida.
