2. No, no. It's a white bird, so it was just "finding" food to provide for its family.
A black bird, now, that would be looting, according to the corporate media. See below for clarification:

10. When we deal with crime, there is no gray. Only black or white.

7. Clever those birds who have figured out how to get
food from humans. I had an aggressive pigeon snatch a piece of my sandwich in the park one time right out of my hand. It turns out he had a reputation from those who ate their lunch in the park for mugging the brown baggers.

11. To bad they got him on Video.
And not even wearing a mask.
Someone who knows him now will tell on him.
Serves him right.

12. Sam The Seagull


Seagull becomes crisp shoplifter

A seagull has turned shoplifter by wandering into a shop and helping itself to crisps.

The bird walks into the RS McColl newsagents in Aberdeen when the door is open and makes off with cheese Doritos.

The seagull, nicknamed Sam, has now become so popular that locals have started paying for his crisps.

Shop assistant Sriaram Nagarajan said: "Everyone is amazed by the seagull. For some reason he only takes that one particular kind of crisps."

The bird first swooped in Aberdeen's Castlegate earlier this month and made off with the 55p crisps, and is now a regular.

Once outside, the crisps are ripped open and the seagull is joined by other birds.

'Fine art'

Mr Nagarajan said: "He's got it down to a fine art. He waits until there are no customers around and I'm standing behind the till, then he raids the place.

"At first I didn't believe a seagull was capable of stealing crisps. But I saw it with my own eyes and I was surprised. He's very good at it.

14. I wonder if Sam lives in his Mother's Basement?
The Cheese is a dead giveaway.
