An alleged burglary took place on Diamond Street in Pacific Beach last month.

At 10:40 p.m. on July 15, a man allegedly stole a bicycle from a home’s garage.

In the middle of the brazen theft, he stopped to share a moment with a dog.

“The guy enters the garage, grabs the bike and starts to walk out. He is about five feet outside the garage door, and a golden retriever comes outside, into the garage, and follows the guy out. He immediately comes back in, parks the bike and starts playing with the dog,” San Diego Police Department Lt. Brian Brecht said.

A video posted on social media by San Diego police shows the man, after playing with the dog for about a minute, leaving the property with the bike that is believed to be around $1,300.

“We are still looking for the subject. That’s why we advertised this on social media, but hopefully, we can get some tips from the public,” Brecht said.

      In your ideal leftist society, would stealing be legal? Of course not – nor has it been legal in any AES state. Generally speaking, it’s bad. The vast majority of people think so now and will continue to think so even if there’s a significant leftward shift in society.

      Our default response to stealing, then, shouldn’t be “hell yeah.” People don’t like getting ripped off and stealing isn’t socialism. It’s fine to cheer stealing from the right people for the right reasons, but that’s not everything.
