WHY do people do things like this?
 

The same reason they do things like this:

Driver who lost license for refusing breath sample arrested while riding lawn mower - Leesburg-News.com

Florida weather affects people's mind in a weird way.

I go to that Sam's .....can't wait for the new Costco to open.

Sounds like not all his dogs were barking!

Why? Because people are not held accountable for their actions. The media is quick to report that someone was arrested, but they rarely report on the final result when they go to court. In this case, the guy caused $10,000 in damage, but he was released on a bond of $3,000. Go figure.

Why? Because his friends and relatives missed the earlier signs of dementia.

It sounds like he lost his toilet training knowledge and did not know where he was.

The moron that did this despicable act needs to be forced to pay the $10K and do a year in Jail.

I doubt if he had criminal intent.

Being retired is stressful I guess. As someone else said it would be nice to know the other side of the story (mental or had a grudge against Sam’s, etc).

I agree, but I'll bet you a dollar that he won't.

He’s not the sharpest bulb! Or the brightest knife in the drawer!

🤭🫢🫣oh you kid! 😁😁😁

"The other side of the story"? What are you? Reasonable? Fair minded?
Just shoot him and toss the body in the dumpster.

(No! I'm not being serious!) 🙄

Why? Some humans are worst than male dogs issing on everthing :eclipsee_gold_cup:

And you are apparently quick to judge before hearing facts. The entire incident sounds very similar to someone with dementia/alzheimers. So go ahead and judge away, but I hope and pray this doesn't happen with you or someone you love.

This is sad to think this man is probably someone's father, husband, or brother-in law.

Criminal intent or lack or competency, has to be one or the other

This act was unwarranted and disgusting. Imagine if you saw this in real time. Interesting that he lives in the Village of Piedmont.

Obviously mentally unbalanced

My bet would be dementia.

Obviously has mental problems. Although, you have to question why nobody was with him if he did have severe mental issues.

“A healthy adult bladder can typically hold about 500-600 ml of urine before the urge to urinate is triggered. However, the bladder can stretch to hold a larger volume, potentially up to 900-1500 ml, depending on individual size and factors like age. The urge to urinate usually occurs when the bladder has filled to about 200-350 ml.” (AI, Google)

That means the guy maybe urinated two cups. Look at the photo below of the cans of Spam with sheets of heavy paper between each layer. Furthermore, the Spam cans are in cardboard boxes and then wrapped in plastic! Chances are, not a single drop got inside the plastic, even if urine hit the plastic, and chances are, not a drop got on most of the plastic coverings on the pallets.

Doing that on pallets of food is disgusting, but does it all need to be tossed out? Did Sam’s Club REALLY toss it out, or did it just say it did so customers will feel safe. I’ve never eaten either Vienna Sausages or Spam, but if I liked them and you offered me the plastic covered boxes that had been peed on, I’d happily accept them for free and dunk them in a bucket of water and bleach to sterilize them. If they were on the pallet but not reached by the golden showers, I wouldn’t even rinse them.

He’s drunk, sick, unstable….

Same thing happened in England.
Only it was a Muslim man urinating IN/ALL OVER the PORK cold case.
I’d call that a religious hate crime, but that’s just me.

Paradise Lost
 

So much for living in paradise. Is this what we call living the dream?

I'm not saying the man was intoxicated, but it is possible.

Who eats Spam anyway:

I eat Spam a couple of times a year.

Thanks Mando.
If you’re really worried, hose it off , pop the tin, and enjoy.
A pro-plant-based food advocate would say that the possible traces of mellow yellow are far less hazardous for your health than the mixture inside the can - check out a pig sty or a slaughterhouse video!!)
Then consider those starving and dying of hunger (15,000 so far today Worldometer - real time world statistics - go to food data) That stack could feed thousands .
We don’t eat meat but if we were starving we’d eat it in a heartbeat.
You could dip a frankfurter in a toilet - I’d simply rinse it off and chomp in if it was all I had.
Your choice to stay in an entitled comfort zone ( you’ll likeky not enjoy the run up to starvation death) or stay on the top side of the ground instead of 6 feet under.
Every time you toss a plate full of leftovers into landfill think of a starving family that plate could feed.
Sadly, too many ‘authorities’ ban food establishments and grocery stores from distributing ‘expired’ food from distribution to those suffering the pain of starvation.

I think his dementia have to be very far advanced to think he was in front of a bathroom sanitary receptacle, other issues perhaps or just a jerk

If he had dementia that bad, wouldn't he be accompanied by another person ? How could somebody even drive there in that state?
No, your right , he was just a jerk.

Why not buy them, since it is not a problem?

How do drunks drive in that state? Drunks successfully drove all the time.
Alzheimer's does not mean a person instantly loses knowledge of everything.

When that little voice inside your head says to you "maybe I shouldn't do this", listen to that little voice.

Expired food can kill you. Killing a person with food poisoning is not the good act you think it is.

If the food was still safe, the expiration date would be extended. Companies do not want to throw away profit.

Go ahead and start a movement to remove expiration dates on good. Once removed, it can be legally given away.

Good question.
An even better question is: Who buys it it bulk, and why?

But when he publicly urinates in public on food, it's a total loss of control, not like a drunk driver that makes that choice.
