After the theft, instead of pressing charges the owner (who had caught the thief in security footage) decided to hold a food drive to give to the man if he elected to come forward. The decision created polarizing opinions—for some it restored their faith in humanity, for others it was rewarding bad behavior.
What do you think? Is the owner rewarding bad behavior or are they helping out a fellow man during hard economic times?

Probably won’t reveal who he is…But a Food Drive for others is A Great Gesture by the owner…Our Cafes & Coffee Shops would do the same here in VT…
