@2 Where are you seeing "unbelievable" privilege? This is a just a poorly written piece on a small business owner that got robbed. Is it just that fact the Stranger elected to post something about that situation that set you off?
I know junkies will steal just about anything, but reselling "enamel pins, handmade clay bookmarks, and antique brass trinkets" seems like a hard way to get a fix. Maybe there's more to the story...
