What were you thinking??...SUBWAY BANDIT CAUGHT ON TAPE

I saw this video posted on the MSNBC.com website last week. Hopeful to make a difference, I had to post something about this type of lunacy. The bold and brazen hold up by a young black man of a Subway restaurant down Boca Raton, FL struck me as disturbing and depressing.

In the wake of the monumental inauguration of the nation's first African American president, I wanted to send a clear message to the segments of the country that seek to do harm to others to advance their own selfish motives. STOP THE MADNESS!! YOU ARE ONLY HURTING YOURSELF!! THE LIFE YOU SAVE JUST MAY BE YOUR OWN!! Americans are tired of your blatant disrespect of our values and our pursuit of happiness. We are all facing a tough time in this economy but resorting to armed robbery is not the way to recovery. In fact only that armed robbery leads to is a one-way to jail or the morgue!!

Wake up people!! Like 7-up cola never had any caffiene, crime never has and never will pay!!!
