Please, no one burn it down.
Look I’m sad they found him too, and fuck the people who turned him in, but no good will come from burning down the inanimate building where the caught him.
It would be a dispersion of the energies created by his act into a useless thing. Not to mention you might end up killing some people in the process; more or less innocent people. So can we tone it down a notch.
Was it the staff or a customer. That’s still up in the air, depending on the article.
I don't think they want the identity of the rat getting out. I'm willing to bet that there are plenty of people who really want to publicly remind everybody that snitches get stitches. Word on the street is that this rat can suddenly afford a $60k hospital bill, unlike UHC customers whose claims get denied every day.
I guess getting two nights in a hospital is worth throwing a hero under a bus.
My bet: the rat don't exist.
The old dude that reported him was literally full faced giving an interview on TV. Forgot which outlet but I don't think they care about his identity.
