I did; and I dont.
Once criminal activity is involved; there is no sympathy from me. You just do not get it from me. I even said Ed is a classy guy; but his brother is clearly not. If I ran into Ed; sure, I would say "sorry about your brother", but say it turned out his brother has died, and they have one of those things where they say "You can send a card here"; I dont get a card for this scenario.
There is too much wrong with this world at times, and too many people suffer for no good reason. So once crime is involved; you do not get my sympathy.
If Ed & his brother are so close; his brother has a place to live & food forever. But lets say he is stealing that car; he might be stealing that car from somebody who is working 3 jobs to make ends meet. When you steal, your taking something away from somebody else. Yes, its a step lower then sexual predator, but its still a crime.
If somebody stole my car; I am literally screwed, cause I am living in debt, and I have been working at least part time since high school (which is actually very common).
Obviously, its just personal opinion. Lots of people will feel sympathy; Im just not one of them. Once crime is involved; sympathy goes away. I didnt get the name Vicious cause I love bunnies
