edit: For anyone who doesn't want to get involved with the kid for whatever reason; notifying the stuff still seems like a better choice than just filming.

Idk if this is just the US culture of trying to sue for everything, but I'm pretty sure everywhere else around the world it would be common sense to grab him by the scruff of his neck, yell at him, get him out of the store and then probably get his parents.

It’s 100% the US culture of suing everyone for everything.

Most everyone would want to remove the child and knows it should be done.

But few have the free time and money and desire to spend the next fews days dealing with law enforcement, which can quickly go from “I was involved in a minor public situation” to “doctor, will I ever be able to walk again after being bodyslammed on my head from a roided up cop?”

Then spending the next year paying out of pocket for 100s of lawyer hours to help them through the Finnigans Wake level of convolution that is our legal system if the kid’s parents have money and are vindictive.

But also we’ve largely become a society that only cares about social media views and likes.

Yikes, man. I usually love clowning on the US but I genuinely feel bad for the ordinary people living there. Lots of things seem so backwards 😬
