Today, at the supermarket, a man collapsed. I gave CPR while the cashier called for help. During this, the other patrons were complaining that no other register was open. Once the ambulance arrived, I returned to my cart to find items removed and 40 dollars taken from my purse. FML

Hopefully the store has CCTV and you can ask them to send it to the police! On the saving someone's life, I salute you! With my paw of course :)

#11 & #28: In America, CCTV is only used to either throw your ass in jail, have someone sue you, or later finds its way on shows like "World Dumbest".

Well how about have it used to throw the thieves' asses in jail? Someone's ass still gets thrown in jail...?

What you did was amazing OP. But next time, don't leave your purse in the cart while you do it. Maybe I have absolutely no faith in humanity but frankly I think you should be grateful your purse wasn't stolen altogether.

"Here hold on. I have to grab my purse before--Oh shit he's dead now. Oh well, my purse was OBVIOUSLY more important than someone's life."

Not saying she deserved it at all but it would've taken a second to grab her purse while she ran to save the person. But of course in the heat of the moment who'd be thinking about their purse.

Sorry, maybe someone took it that needed it more than you did?

Because simple necessity always constitutes theft. Right.

If that is your benchmark for morality, I'll say clear of you.

I'm sorry you had to experience the shitty side of human nature while being a Good Samaritan. Continue your good deeds as you see fit. What goes around, comes around. Good and bad.

You might be down 40 dollars (terrible thing to do!) but you saved someone's life!! That's incredible.

Well why did you leave your purse unattended?

Because posting their Facebook status prior to performing CPR seemed a little taboo at the time.

Because some poor sod was dying for christ's sake? Some folks value human life more than the contents of their purse.

There is nothing sexier than an intelligent woman calling out another woman's unintelligent comment by calling her a twat. I may need mouth to mouth. Nurse!

Oh my god #20, you can't just ask someone why they left their purse unattended.

That was the dumbest thing ive ever heard. Did you read the "collapsed on the ground" part? She was saving a life. I dont think she had time to think "oh shoot my purse is still there" and go retrieve it

You all take me very seriously. This is basically a social media website where people correct each other for everything. Chill.

Are you f*cking kidding me? That seriously has to be an all time low. You have a good heart and didnt deserve that. I'm sorry to hear it happened. Don't worry their Karma will catch up with them. Was there any CCTV cameras about?
