Superhero anarchists steal gourmet food for poor [May. 9th, 2006|10:20 am]

Mark Frauenfelder: From The Scotsman:
A gang of anarchist Robin Hood-style thieves, who dress as superheroes and steal expensive food from exclusive restaurants and delicatessens to give to the poor, are being hunted by police in the German city of Hamburg.
The gang members seemingly take delight in injecting humour into their raids, which rely on sheer numbers and the confusion caused by their presence. After they plundered Kobe beef fillets, champagne and smoked salmon from a gourmet store on the exclusive Elbastrasse, they presented the cashier with a bouquet of flowers before making their getaway.
Link (thanks, Bruce!)
I'm not sure if it's the anarchist or the artist in me that is more pleased/amused by this. I never advocate willful breaking of commandments, but ... I am only human.
And the rash of right-hand turns from the left-hand lane continues unabated. Am I the only one privy to thissign of the coming apocalypse demonstration of extreme stupidity while driving, or is this a trend?
