Bad guys are every where. Sometimes, some of them are too bad and nasty. We in the poor countries often think that all our problems occur from poverty. However, we are dead wrong. At least, this story made me feel this way. It happened in England. A criminal just attacked a blind man and snatched the blind man’s mobile phone away. Here is the description of the incident published in a website:
Police in Taunton are appealing for witnesses and information after a man was robbed off his mobile phone in the Heavitree Way area of the town.
At around 9.45pm on Sunday, August 27, 2006, the victim, who is in his early 20s and registered blind, was walking home after an evening at the Gardeners Arms pub on Priorswood Road.
As he walked along Heavitree Way at the junction with Compton Close, he was grabbed from behind by an unknown man who pushed him into a wall and threatened him before stealing a Sony Ericsson W810i phone and running off towards the railway line and Compton close area.
The offender is described as a white man, aged between 18 and 23 years, 5ft 11ins tall with a stocky build and closely cropped or shaved hair.
The crook is not a kid. I am sure that he is mighty proud of his heroic accomplishment! After all, how many people can dare to rob a blind man in the first place? And just for a mobile phone! Unfortunately, consumerism is the buzz word in the European society and this robber is just another example of the fact that spiritualism is becoming a thing of the past for England.
What next?

Of course this type of crime is very common. In the Cleveland area we had a man who would “short-change” the blind man he bought a newspaper from every morning. Turns out the man who did it worked for the court system as a bailiff.
