Hearing about this amazing success story, a lawyer who was standing in line behind Rowe chimed in with his thoughts: If it were up to him, he’d sue the liquor store owner on behalf of the shoplifters whose photos have been splashed across the store. Because it wasn’t fair to the shoplifters.
Now, I’m sure The System needs bottom-feeding ambulance-chasing trial attorneys to work, just as The System needs defense attorneys who are willing to smear 12-year-old rape victims. But for our society to work, we need heroes who will stand up to these scumbags, brave men and women who will say, “No, this is wrong!”
We need men like Mike Rowe, who, upon hearing that this attorney would sue a wronged store owner on behalf of the thief who stole from him, announced he was appalled and decided to post the pictures of the thief to his Facebook page, where his more than one million followers could see, judge, and shame him. And he dared the lawyer to sue him in response.
