Ok, I take it back - this is despicable

I dare you to read this article, and not get mad. Go on, bet you can’t do it.

Ok, since you’re too scared to click on links without descriptions, I’ll fill you in on the details. You see, this moron (soon to be, if not already unemployed) Walmart manager took all the toys out of the “Toys for Tots” donation bin, and put them back on the shelves. There was apparently no way of knowing that they weren’t all stolen from the store, since there were no receipts - ergo, they were all stolen goods (in this tiny little man’s mind.) So, they really belonged back on the shelves.

It takes a really special kind of jerk to steal toy donations for poor kids, and that’s essentially what this guy did. I suppose it’s possible that he was just a misguided person trying to prevent theft, and I suppose it’s possible that he honestly thought they had all been stolen from his store. Still a pretty stupid thing to do.

I guess it’s true, for every genius, there’s an equal and opposite moron
