WaHo


So much injustice goes on in our society today. We have laws, but they are so easily broken. Our jails are overflowing with inmates who have nothing else to do with their lives than continuously get in trouble. The ‘bad’ people you hear about who have gone to jail, usually have not gone to jail only one time. If they have, it won’t be too long until you hear their name in the news, heading off again into the slammer. Humanity’s rules can be easily broken by the simplest of actions. Especially those stupid laws, like: don’t ride a llama after 2 PM on a sidewalk. I feel like that’s kind of an embarrassment to who ever passed that, or whoever was dumb enough to need to have that law passed.



Crime is inevitable. There are always those bad seeds of society who habitually break rules because of their upbringing or needs and desires. No matter the motive, crime is and will always be a component in everyday life.



Even when you sit down to order some waffles.



Ten days ago, a Dekalb Waffle House was robbed and all the money was taken from the cash register and all of the employees. The robbers just wanted the money. The robbers didn’t take any lives- just money.



It has come to my understanding that most crimes happen because of ‘bad’ people, but their ‘badness’ boils down to two options: insanity or money. No one has ever heard of a sane rich person robbing a bank. Only the down and out crazies attempt such a thing. The risk is apparently well-worth the benefit.



The police have still not found the robbers, but I’m sure that they won’t any time soon..unless the two getaways decided to spend the money unwisely. When big sums of money are spent, the police can easily track the offenders. Robbers stereotypically are also quite brainless. Many robbers are caught because of mistakes they made in their schemes. 



So laws are made, then broken, only to hopefully be carried out and made an example of. If you can’t catch the person who broke the law, what is the point of having the law in the first place? I’m not saying we shouldn’t have laws, but laws become pointless when those who commit them get no repercussions.



I hope that WaHo is brought to justice and the legal system does its job by catching these thieves. Otherwise like some waffle syrup, we’ll have a sticky situation on our hands!
