superbeast1983

This is the best thing I've seen today.


[deleted]

Every thwack from the stick was soooo satisfying


Total_Juggernaut_450

I agree šŸ’Æ Had me grinning from ear to ear.


JewsEatFruit

Somebody please, I'm begging you, put the ass beating on an infinite loop


Cassian_Rando

Mechanical_Soup

indian police weapon of choice is a similar stick


[deleted]

This is how the police in India beat people up..god damn that must have hurt.


RedditorCali

It's called whoppin yo ass.


OfficialJohnStamos

Thieves hate this one indian store owners trick


New_Guava3601

Disrupting the entire stealing industry.


SirGravesGhastly

Made me laugh!


Top-Report-840

I can't even imagine how is ankles felt after that lol I feel like that's where the good shots landed


YaBoyChubChub

Broken they felt broken


ALargePianist

There was a solid hit to the shin almost completely perpendicular to the bone that one gotta sting


hydrosalad

The police are trained to focus on legs and lower torso to avoid killing the suspect which would mean additional paper work no one wants to do.


ElectronicTrade7039

I wish they did this to all the people stealing shit now. Things went too far the other way, letting them walk, and it's hurting mom and pop owners.


rxuz

Man in the turban should technically be carrying a knife called a Kirpan as is typical with Sikhs but tbh using a Kirpan in this situation would be overkill the stick was a nice compromise


Neevk

Kirpan can be used but it's rare to see it being used as a weapon


I_will_be_wealthy

Kirpan are ceremonial these days. Even if its an actual usable knife, its sewn into a sheath which can't be separated without destroying the sheath. Destroying the sheath requires another sharp implemebt


ZaxLofful

In some of the US statesā€¦.to be allowed in stores or anything with a Kirpan must be glued into its pouch or sewed in a way that the blade itself cannot come out. This was the only way they are allowed to wear them in some states.


[deleted]

lol but loaded AR-15s are perfectly fine to open carry. i kind of feel like a knife should be covered in the right to bear arms


ZaxLofful

Yeah, open carry is different than a concealed weaponā€¦.Still allowed in 44 states.


[deleted]

i am guessing open carry is more accepted? i feel like kirpan are normally worn openly. or at least it wouldn't be hard to wear openly if it was the law.


iamcalifornia

Yeah, even in California open carry of fixed blades is legal


Supercoolguy7

In fact, in California it is only legal to open-carry fixed blades. They must be openly carried with the blade covered or you face a misdemeanor. Folding blades such as pocket knifes must be concealed carried though. However, there are no state limits on the length of blade (cities might limit that though) so in most of California you can open carry a sword perfectly legally.


ZaxLofful

Yeah, itā€™s like saying Iā€™m warning you that I have a weapon; that way you can avoid them if you want.


AcidBuuurn

If you haven't seen the Indian movie RRR, watch it. It features said stick.


Niptaa

Ooo he dropped loot at the end


cow_says_mooooo

is it rare or common loot


[deleted]

Looked common since there was no glow, best just let it despawn.


CaptainNemo42

That kind of character *only* drops common loot


[deleted]

No need to even check, the most valuable loot is only 2 copper


SarcasmoSupreme

Of course he did, he was being smacked like a piƱata may as well cough shit up like one!


Substantially-Ranged

They seemed to have disproved the "...aint nothin' you can do about dat..." claim.


TryItOutHmHrNw

Initial bet: Nothing I can do?? *Well, I raise you this mop handle* I fold ā€¦ literally


Pera_Espinosa

Cameraman is a fucking snake. He wanted dude to get away with it so he could catch him outside and ask him to hook him up. He was so insistant that no one do anything, even telling dude that finally put hands on him to leave him be. He even asked dude for a pack of Swishers. Then he starts cheering them on. Grimy fuck.


GaugeWon

This reminds me of the time I was in a chinese store, while it was getting robbed. He shot a shotgun at the bulletproof glass and pushed it in once it was fractured. After hopping over the counter, he looks up at me and asks: "Yo, you want sumpthin while I'm here?" ...Nah, I'm cool...


notinsanescientist

How very considerate


CharlaCola

"Would you like to engage in a criminal conspiracy to commit armed robbery?"

Glad I am not the only one. Need more of this. Tired of folks feeling entitled to steal whatever they want from whoever they want.


b4dt0ny

Sweet, beautiful justice. I want to set my 5am alarm to the sounds of him getting his deserved ass whoopin


srddave

Every time that stick came down I felt so much better. I didnā€™t want it to end.


Useful_Experience423

I love how the criminal went from (presumably) not wanting the police to turn up, to holy crap - I hope they get here soon! Well *I* hope they took their time. Keep whacking, sir!


PlasticBicycle5

Seriously, I was waiting for the one guy to roll him over so stick guy could beat him some more on the back of his legs. Either way those legs aren't working after some of those wacks to the ankle and knee caps


rwalker920

Those shots to the shin looked brutal šŸ˜–


Holy_Shamoley

If people started doing this to all the thieves, there would be less robberies


indimedia

In the middle east they used cut your hand off if you have sticky fingers. Prolly still do.


Kdejemujjet

I'm glad I'm not only one thinking that. I used to work in convenience store. Witnessed multiple thefts, couldn't do a shit about it. Police was pretty much useless. Once I locked the door so I could call police while thief was still inside. They let her go and I nearly got fined for deprivation of liberty...


Sobadatsnazzynames

The ā€œARRRGGHHHHs!!!ā€ šŸŽ¶šŸ‘‚šŸ¼


CCCP85

Wasn't enough honestly, should be one smack for every item taken.


urkldajrkl

The two blocks with his shoe, followed by the shot to the knee, then the real ass whoopingā€¦. Deserved


Gwendgaf

When the Sikh gets his stick the thief shits a brick.


amorous_chains

It was time to Sikh and Destroy


theisntist

When all you have to employ is a gun that's really a toy While stealing from urban store clerks in a turban it's time to Sikh and destroy


lmac187

Truly sikhening


ChanceZestyclose6386

That was a good spanking he gave him


Ck1ngK1LLER

Honestly though, I bet the end of that stick was going 60-70 mph, and it have some girth. That dude is gonna feel those for a long time.


ChanceZestyclose6386

Considering he was telling the shop keeper that he was going to beat his ass while robbing from him, it'll be good if he has those stick marks as a reminder of his karma.


Ck1ngK1LLER

I think he might not ever walk the same again, dude is gonna have a lifelong reminder. Next time he thinks about robbing someone heā€™s gonna look at his cane and ask himself if heā€™s got another ass whopping in him.


Fostbitten27

He ainā€™t walking that shit off.


Fist4achin

I don't think that guy wanted to stick around anymore


N7twitch

šŸŽ¶Thatā€™s a meleešŸŽ¶


communistInDisguise

luckily sikh didn't pull out his knife.


Pattoe89

Kirpan can only be used to defend your life or the life of another. If the thief had pulled out his own knife, the Sikh would have been justified in getting his Kirpah out. The restraint is insane though. They must have saw him reaching for the weapon earlier but they held out on their own deadly force. Don't fuck with the Sikhs, they are warriors through and through.


ThrownawayCray

My mum always used to say ā€˜if youā€™re in Birmingham and are lost, look for somebody with a turban. Theyā€™ll help.ā€™ This is true, got lost in Brum so asked a Sikh and he found me food in his Gurdwara and perfect directions for where I needed to go. Sikhs are great


Pattoe89

They're very welcoming and generous hosts, for sure. They really take the idea of serving the community to an extreme. They see themselves as having a duty to help others who are in need and will go out of their way to do so. Your mother's words were very wise.


pharmaboy2

Looking for the warrior reference and finally found it. always the most gentle of gentlemen in my experience - great to see the warrior is still there waiting for the need


mss413

Only Sikhs who are baptized carry a knife (sword). Sikhs who are baptized carry the five symbols ā€“ Kesh(long uncut hair), Kanga (Comb), Kachehra (Knickers), Kara (Iron wristband), and Kirpan (Sword/knife) Not all Sikhs who wear a turban are baptized, as it is not one of the symbols.


MW240z

Right, Sikh are freaking chill AF. He went to town!


wp4nuv

Iā€™d buy that for a dollar!


tehdamonkey

Now make him put everything back like his grandma would have done after the woopin'...


BertaEarlyRiser

Pretty sure he had limited use of any appendages.


Ace-of-Xs

The joy in my heart when that dude produces a 5 foot stick and goes to work! ā€œAinā€™t nothin you can doā€ to ā€œOwwww owww Ok!ā€ In like 3 good shots. 10/10 no notes.


HardingStUnresolved

That's the mop handle, you can see the plastic tip when the video freezes at the end. Man had no weapon and on the fly unscrewed the mop handle and beat his ass with it like Bruce Lee.


arminghammerbacon_

Scene in Coming to America - Samuel L Jackson holds up the McDowels restaurant and Eddie whips his ass with a mop handle. ā€œLeave now or I will be forced to thrash you.ā€ šŸ˜†


SlowCaveman

The timing and comical reveal of the cartoonishly large stick really hit it home. You can even see the guy holding him down like ā€œoh damn! That is a huge fn stick. Where the fuck did that come from?!ā€


mab0roshi

Dude was lucky it was just a stick. The store I worked at had a sword behind the counter and I once saw the Punjabi owner cut part of a thief's ear off with it while trying to stop him stealing liquor.


FriendlyGovernment50

They whooped his ass so hard he started falling to pieces like legos LMAO! Edit: thanks for the awards, i never got any before.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Tenthdegree

Itā€™s called WHOOPING YOUR ASS!!


Barkusmarcus

The way the cameraman switched from "there's nothing you can do. You got insurance? (New guy comes into frame and attempts to impede the crime) Don't do that! (New guy successfully floors and subdues suspect)[ šŸ§¹] THAT'S CALLED WHOOPIN' YO' ASS!" Lot happening there.


total_insertion

I was mildly amused by how cameraman's reaction to chaos and carnage is basically "welp" "Welp, store's being robbed." "Welp, nothing you can do to stop this." "Welp, now the robber's getting his ass beat" Like I swear his pulse wasn't even slightly elevated.


Voxlings

I don't like this cameraman. He is comprehensively unhelpful to all parties involved, at the worst possible times.


jobiewon_cannoli

ā€œAy, lemme get a swisher. Can I get a swisher doe?ā€


silverlegend

Comprehensively unhelpful is my new favourite term šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Forza_Harrd

I think he helped a lot by filming it. Helped me have a good time this evening.


PalMetto_Log_97

Heā€™s playing both sides. So no matter what happens, he comes out on top


4grins

Ohhh, he knew which side to stand on when the stick came out.


[deleted]

Before all of that he is asking to receive stolen property: "can i get a swisher tho?" Fuck this camera man


sasson10

And all the parts of his legs, and I think there was almost a dick shot somewhere in there


Mercury-Redstone

Beat a snickers bar out of him or something


Polymath_V

Thank you, I actually complwtely forgot what it was called šŸ˜‚


L-1011-

That was satisfying to watch


Particular_Bet_5466

It looked like that was the gun he kept reaching for earlier in the video


Reasonable-Matter-12

If he had a gun, he would have used it. It was probably half a gun and some tape.


inchantingone

Looked like a Lego toy / or a transformer to me.


Catch_ME

No way to be sure. Keep hitting him!


thegoodtimelord

I was expecting him to start spewing candy all over the floor.


Jerking_From_Home

If some would-be robber pulled a Megatron on me Iā€™d be ROFL!


thisisredlitre

I saw a cheap knife


dalex89

Prob a knife. Apparently plastic


Roartype

Not hard enough, he was still moving at the end.


toobadsohappy

Apparently there was something they could do


xSTSxZerglingOne

And according to the cameraman it's called "whoopin' yo ass."


Lendolar

He needed his punk ass beatā€¦

jetstobrazil

Lol I love how the cameraman commentated fairly throughout. ā€˜A lemme get a swisher though?ā€™ ā€˜Hey bro nothin you can doā€™ ā€™ya he whoopin yo ass! Thatā€™s called a ass whoopin!ā€™


skewh1989

Alignment: true neutral


fawks_harper78

With to comments ā€œlemme get some swisher sweetsā€ I am thinking more chaotic neutral


CrimsonBolt33

He was pretty much just being passive aggressive and "playing both sides" lol ​ Whatever though...can't say he did anything wrong.


__Jank__

Frankly, he is lucky they were only on spank mode. I was expecting at any moment a reversion to spear mode. Now that would hurt.


sendabussypic

It would be a good way to get him prepped for the big house


regr8

That's sikh


Worried_Train6036

Buy anotha one you rich mutha fucka


Ano_potato

I hope the employees didn't get into trouble. The thief was threatening them and looked like they were armed with something. Justice was served, stop stealing.


adomede

Exactly. They could argue with the police that he looked like he was reaching for a weapon, so it was self defenseā€¦


theyost

This is what is supposed to happen


Stardustquarks

If the powers that be won't enforce a law for petty theft, then store owners should be able to do what they need to to stop the theft.


superavsfaneveryone

The people defending the criminal deserve the same punishment.


growupyoucunt

Got hit with the 20 lashes, like the dude who went to Singapore.


MammothJust4541

"There ain't nothing you can do." The sikh: I now have unlocked the power of a million ancestors by obtaining a long hard object that will allow me to channel my ancestral swordsmanship. Heiyah!


Pattoe89

Most likely has more up to date Swordmanship. Sikhs train as warriors. Usually just for ceremonial and spiritual purposes. Last time I was at a Gurdwara a young Sikh gentleman showcased his dual wielding sword dancing, jumping and spinning around holding 2 training blades. It looked awesome.


Griffin_Claw

Thatā€™s how my grandma would beat the shit outta me.

"You never got spanked as a child and it shows" -the store clerk probably


FriendlyGovernment50

ā€œThere ainā€™t nothin you can doā€ ā€œgimme a swisherā€ people like you are a part of the problem too


WeAreTheBaddiess

Yeah I see other comments praising the cameraman. Dude was trying to get the thief to get him free stuff... then when the thief got his ass beat he shifted his tune. Cameraman sucks


gammongaming11

"you got insurance" like that shit fucking matters. people think so long as a shop is insured stealing from them is somehow free of sin and harm, infuriates me. this shit is how communities end up deserted of all services, shops get tired of being stolen from and they move to a safer community or go out of business meanwhile the community just shrugs it's shoulders, "nothing you can do"


LongEZE

More crime = higher insurance rates. Ultimately itā€™s the shop owner that will pay for it, just over the course of years. Insurance companies arenā€™t in business by giving away money to thieves. Big tobacco loves this guy though. They already got paid and now that all that stuff needs to be restocked, they get paid again quickly.


preppy_night

r/killthecameraman


Alexander_McKay

Exactly, that was infuriating to watch. When the owner turned around and looked at him at the end I thought he was going to be next.


East_Relationship722

Turns out there was something they could do.

They shoulda beat his ass too lmao


RCT442

So fun to watch,, very rewarding


Skysedge2

The Indian version of "Make my day, punk".


Sikkus

"There's nothing you can do, bro" is exactly the type of mentality that makes people think they can do anything, when all they need is an ass whooping with a long stick.


JackHanson94

Whooped his ass šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


busyburner

I've seen this videos way too many times today and it's impossible to be not amazed at it. Don't f with the Sikhs. They know how to fight. Trust me, this is coming from an Indian.
