A day after a brazen shoplifter was seen walking out with a buffet-ful of stolen meat from a Manhattan Trader Joe's, another thief has been recorded striking the location.
The unnamed man can be seen on video, exclusively taken by The Post, in an aisle at the grocery store's East 14th Street location shoving two cans of soda into his pants and casually strolling out of the store.
"I don't have to," Wednesday's alleged thief told a Post photographer outside the store.
"I used to have a job working all the time, ya know, not stealing, not having to really," he continued. "No one knows with going on. This ridiculous nonsense, my family killed for nothing."

The man told The Post he is unemployed and uses EBT to buy food.
On Tuesday, a so-called "Hamburglar" walked out the doors of the same store with 10 packages of meat in his arms. Frustrated workers said they were barred by their employer from stopping the man, who is being sought by cops.
Manhattan's DA Alvin Bragg said Wednesday his office trying to figure out how to stop people " who are really going store to store and just taking."
"How we can kind of aggregate that conduct and so charge it at a higher level when appropriate," Bragg said during an event for the Association for a Better New York.

It's a Thursday morning in NYC.
Good morning democrats.
Feel fortunate that you're allowed to get away with this s***
Telling a truth is a problem with you now John?

The guy stole two cans of soda pop and that's national news?
[dleted]
What about the steak stealer? Are you saying it's OK for black folks to shoplift?
I used the picture provided by the Post. Should I have edited it?
I see a picture of someone that is stealing from trader Joes. Vic is pointing to democrat policies that is allowing this to happen because there is no punishment for bad behavior. You are interjecting race into it. Reminds me of a racer(whatever that is).
I'd you called it perfectly.
You get the A today.
Horse shit
Prove it
Are we creating a dumbass factory here?
I don't know, are you?
Seems you are. A story gets posted about rampant shoplifting and theft and all you can concentrate on is race. To use one of your favorite lines, "what the hell is wrong with you?"
Someone taking two cans of soda pop is rampant shoplifting ? wake the fuk up
You wake the fuck up. The point is, same Trader Joe's, different day. Why the hell you are obsessed with the color of the criminal's fucking skin is beyond ridiculous and outright borderline psychotic. And yes it is rampant all over the country. Again, wake the fuck up..

NYC .... reaping what they have sown.
Enjoy dumbasses.
White people don't shoplift?
You seem obsessed with the race of the perpetrator. Why?
Feel free to post a picture and article of one.

WTF is racerism?
We know who is obsessed with the race of certain perpetrators in certain 'articles'
You’re the only one race baiting here John.
You’ve got a real problem with that by the way.
An article that shows a photograph of someone who stole two cans of pop for the purpose of depicting his race should be ashamed of itself
You can play dumb if you want nothing stopping you
Was that my purpose?
Did you miss the ten packages of meat also pictured both here and in the seeded article? It's a bit more that soda pop John
The Trader Joe's on East 14th Street has had two incidents of theft this week. It is not a legitimate news story
As noted, you’ve got a real problem with this topic John and the denial is yours and yours only.
No the racists have a problem [removed]

No one forced you to read a "non news story". Maybe it would have been better (and healthier) for you if you just passed it by, Or if you are on a quest to get rid of all non news stories go to CNN web site where you will find dozens of them.
Burn those books baby ..... burn baby burn .....

I already burned my Dr. Seuss books. The white liberals promised there would be no more racism if they were all gone.
