Some people consider things that we don't understand blessings in disguise, but since when has something as terrible as someone getting it by a car become one. On October 3rd in Mesa, Arizona an elderly man was hit by a pickup truck which swerved off the road, while waiting at a bus stop. As the man was sent flying, the pickup truck sped away with a white bag attached to it's front grill. While one man who was waiting at the bus stop as well, just escaping getting hit too, quickly dropped his groceries to help the elderly man. While the elderly man lay helpless on the ground along with the gentleman who was helping him, suddenly other witnesses began to scavenge to steal both men's groceries. With not a single fruit left in sight, police say the robbers could be charged with theft if caught. The man is OK, but the emotional damage alone could last a lifetime. Something as terrible as this may have helped a homeless person have dinner that night, but does that make it right?
Who would ever think in such an intense and dangerous situation, the only thing on someones mind could be to kick someone while they're down. Not only was stealing these men's groceries immoral, it's shameful. They may have thought they got away with such a terrible act, but Karma will get around to them eventually.
