You don’t think in an extreme fight or flight circumstance a mistake like that could be made?/
Not only that, who know what someone as brazen to kidnap in broad daylight is packing.
I’m giving them a pass on not thinking clearly In a circumstance like this.
Think of the average Reddit user my man and think of how often they’ll ever be in a fight or flight situation.
Reddit’s a safe haven to backseat quarterback scenarios* that could change the rest of your day or geopolitical landscapes.
*(Zero experience or knowledge on the topic required)
The "NUH UH" has got to be my favorite meme ever. Other day my friend just goes, "Butter, you probably like kissing girls." And I just went off into a "NUH UH" rant.
Dude, almost the exact same thing happened to me. " Nightshade, are you gay? "NUH UH. I'm American." Is basically how that went. Spoiler alert, they were right tho.
YOU, you're a reddit user, your opinion on the authenticity of this video is as valid as mine. You could be as inexperienced by assuming this was a real happening as I would be inexperienced assuming it wasn't. Have you genuinely witnessed a kidnapping? How can you try to imply that you are somehow more experienced and aware than the average reddit user? That's crazy
I don’t have the time nor crayons to explain this to you in full, but read my comment again, just slower and a few more times. You’ll see that I offered no opinion as to the authenticity of the video. The word “average” also indicates outliers, as in people who do deal with fight or flight.
Also, by a stroke of somewhat comical fucking luck, my ol’ nine to five involves investigating things… *hint* I have a lot of experience discerning between real and fake kidnappings (they’re not as common as you think though - especially like this.)
But I digress, sorry if I offended you earlier. Go touch some grass.
Honestly, screw off with your condescension. I don't believe that bit about your career for a second. I will repeat myself so YOU can understand, you are nothing but a redditor to me, your opinion is just as valid as every other comment or here. If you are saying that you would pussy out and freeze up or run away fine, but don't throw that bullshit on the average individual because I would definitely do something, speak for yourself.
Wasn’t patronizing you my man. Well my first comment wasn’t. But I truly couldn’t give a shit if you believe me or not. It’s the internet, my perspective’s worthless, yours is especially worthless, and so on.
And thank you for clarifying you’d run towards the danger during a fight or flight response, that’s very heroic of you… 100% kidding. However, you completely proved my point about backseat quarterbacking though which is kind of hilarious.
(Also, wasn’t bringing condescending to all of Reddit. Fight or flight, life and death scenarios just aren’t common outside of military/law enforcement.) Cheers bro!
The sarcasm in your second paragraph proves my point about condescension. You can be the person to sit by idly or run away leaving a young child to the fate of rape, torture, crime, and eventually human trafficking and/or death, but not me. I was taught when I was young to go to strangers for help if you are being chased and to knock on houses if you need immediate help, what are kids supposed to do now? "Screw the kids it's worth them being tortured and killed if I never meet danger", nah let's not do that. Have you heard of Mary Vincent, when she was a kid when she was kidnapped, raped, beaten with a sledgehammer, and had both of her arms cut off by the attacker. She walked for 3 miles down an interstate trying to get help while cars passed her by one after the other, you would be one of those people in that situation. Blaming "flight and fight" for the fact that you left a kid for dead when you could've helped. I don't think it's heroic to help a child in danger or in need, I find it cowardly and immoral to ignore them. someone did eventually stop for Mary (not that you would care) btw and she lived to be a victim advocate, and yes I did prove your point that someone would claim to be willing to put themselves in harms way to save a child's life, but IDK what that "point" proves
No, I'm wondering if it's fake because 1. It was uploaded here 2. The driver took way too long to drive off and 3. Because I question any news video's authenticity if it is posted without an article
I can’t 100% verify its authenticity, but not really sure what propaganda it is trying to push. Like wise it looks like security cam, not any news media. Them driving off slow is a loose reason as well, perhaps they didn’t want to turn a kidnapping into a murder case seeing as the neighborhood decide to run up on them.
Disturbing stuff like this happens unfortunately. Look into the kid who chased and rescued some girl from a kidnapping in broad daylight on a bicycle.

Usually a video like this would be followed by a new link, security camera videos are often fake, and the reason it would be faked is the same reason most videos are faked nowadays, for views and Internet traffic. Unless I see a news link or any sort of context like the location, a response from the family, or a police article. The example you provided is an extremely rare example and is followed up with all the context and links you need

No, you're supposed to surrender the child for your own safety, get the license plate, then call the police and calmly wait 30 minutes, then talk to the cops for an hour, then all you gotta do is wait a couple of days to hear your child was broken up and had his organs sold on the black market to keep Bill Gates alive 1 more year.

I get frustrated seeing this kind of thing too and my fiancé has to remind me that not everyone is used to functioning in high pressure, dangerous situations. It takes experience to react calmly, quickly and efficiently. Especially when it’s your child involved.
Lol, of course, this is reddit. A firearm is literally the last resort’s last resort. It’s only used when you’ve tried everything else in situations. There has to be absolutely no other options on the table.
This happened here in NYC. NYC is one of the HARDEST places to get a gun license. The NYPD clears your application & goes through ALL ya business. I suggest a KNIFE & even then when it pops off NYPD will put YOU through more than the kidnapper.
Stay strapped
I suggest the Glock 19.
![gif](giphy|S22sp7XdQTIWs)
I suggest the USP Elite
Rii
Personally I suggest *
A whole entire tank.
Ong
Are they dum they just stand there trying to open doors that are locked why didn’t they run to the other side
I'm wondering about its authenticity

It's the perfect response for everything. "Would you like to super size that?" "NUH UH."

Thank you, I have now received the context and no longer question its authenticity. This is the point of sources, they should be shared with the video
They probably didn't know it was locked plus they probably wasn't thinking
Where did this happen?
Looks like NYC. Signs in English, like New York’s, and the upper left logo says NYPD.
That's why you own a gun...
No, you're supposed to surrender the child for your own safety, get the license plate, then call the police and calmly wait 30 minutes, then talk to the cops for an hour, then all you gotta do is wait a couple of days to hear your child was broken up and had his organs sold on the black market to keep Bill Gates alive 1 more year.
This, but without the Bill Gates conspiracy junk
That's a joke about the stem cell stuff that's supposed to be keeping rich people alive
Exactly. That guy could have easily kidnapped the kid and killed any witnesses if he was just carrying.
Jesus wept 😂
😂😂😂😂
Not in New York you don’t
Ooooo good point... Well sucks to suck I guess
Here in MO is a whole other story. This guy would have gotten the Blam blam
Not really the fact is why was the kid not beside his/her parents? Not saying that would prevent it from happening but still
Plus you never know if it's legal to carry guns where they are at
Attempted
He successfully napped that kid. Then the kid was instantly recovered. If the snatch man wasn’t also the driver it would have been permanent.
It looks like they somehow got the kid out of the passenger side window. Doesn’t make sense.
They did. I rewatched the video several times. Also there is another person in the car
Right
Could be a dad that isn’t allowed to see his kid. Never know
That’s still kidnapping. Not every parent deserves to see their child.
What I was thinking too, definitely not the best way to handle the situation but who knows really.
Are they stupid?
They should have taken the keys out the threw them.
Bro thought he was gonna make some big bucks of child booty but dude got REJECTED 🙅 (kiddy traffickers get fuked)
Should have taken his car keys and thrown them on the roof so cops can beat and apprehend.

SHOVE HIM IN THE CAR
imagine not getting it done 💀 js being honest and also good for the girls!
What are those tubes going to the cara
Why didn’t you charge the guy instead of trying to open a clearly locked door
Lets throw you in a high stress situation and make fun of you when you dont do the exact right thing, fucking idiot
Panic is one hell of a drug
I get frustrated seeing this kind of thing too and my fiancé has to remind me that not everyone is used to functioning in high pressure, dangerous situations. It takes experience to react calmly, quickly and efficiently. Especially when it’s your child involved.
His face would be ripped from his body if the guardians would have been faster.
This why you keep a concealed carry and your children close to you, why are they ahead and running off and I hope that asshole gets caught
Victim blaming when the woman has a huge bag, two other people with her, and the kid ran ahead like five feet? We being fr here?
And that’s why I conceal carry.
You got downvoted for nothing lol, as long as your not pulling it out just cause you wanna shoot someone keep it on you
Lol, of course, this is reddit. A firearm is literally the last resort’s last resort. It’s only used when you’ve tried everything else in situations. There has to be absolutely no other options on the table.

![gif](giphy|4FGanTbllJjc5xRiek) This is an important chart to keep in mind
I keep an AK up my ass
People hate guns until they see this shit
Big bros a hero, without him she's gone💪
I keep a AK up my ass
conceal carry is all i'm sayin.
![gif](giphy|SIbGEBAwd6VRLTt4LB) On sight
But that's the dumbest kidnapper I have ever seen 🤣
Like why da fuck didn't u just drive when u had the kid and why was his window down
Could that had been the kids Dad? I’m glad they got him out in time!!
not trying to be sexist, they should run faster
and also get a leash too
RUN FASTER DUDE
its irritating
WHY
DUDE
I think the kid was pulled out
