    Ohio Salvation Army kettle stolen at knifepoint

    NORTH CANTON, Ohio (AP) — Police say an Ohio Salvation Army bell-ringer outside a Kmart store was robbed of his red kettle by four men with a knife.

    North Canton police say they don't know how much donated money was in the kettle when it was taken Saturday evening.

    Police Sgt. Frank Kemp tells WJW-TV (http://bit.ly/vPzm84) the four men, all wearing dark clothing and hoodies, threatened to use the knife. Kemp says the bell-ringer followed the Salvation Army's standard procedure in such cases and did not put up a struggle. The robbers took off on foot.

    Police are asking for tips to help find them.

      Ok everyone, all together now: why wasn't there a description of what the '4 men' looked like? *drum roll*

        Ha, so Joe Sixpack and Suzy Soccermom don't get the 'wrong' idea about a certain ~12% of our population............

        The funny thing is, this #$%$ practice has been going on for so long it has actually created a complete reverse effect - even when whites commit crimes (the nature of this particular crime made it easy to figure out the race), if there's no description then we automatically assume it's a brotha!

        Anytime the media whitewashes a crime with just a description of a "man or men" - thats Obama PC Speak....

      4 unknown humanoids of indiscriminate height, weight, gender, race, creed, political affiliation or sexual orientation are suspected of an alleged crime somewhere in the eastern U.S. tonight. No details forthcoming.

      "Police are asking for tips to help find them."

      And LMAO Yahoo! doesn't provide the non PC description of what they look like!

      Keep churning hoo - you don't want to "upset" all those non-described folks who own puters.
      LMFAO

      Whats next lemonade stands this is hilarious and yet sad at the same time that we can see our society fed well on Jerry Springer can now crow that we act like all low charactered people, because what other people do seems to allow us to do it also. Real child like psychology without thought of consequences. I would like to ask though to all those who think crime is making our lives better, how can you enjoy freedom when crime inhabits it. The beauty of this world is fast fading in the place of rampart poor decisions and people that no longer care about themselves in a humble and healthy way or anyone else for that matter. Shame on those who are so lazy that they forget themselves how they felt when they found something they owned and charished taken by someone who so obviously didnt deserve it. If you act in a shameful way dont be surprised if you never feel proud of yourself.

      Why is this making news??? people get robbed all day long..all year long...why now?? Stories like this make me skeptical because of the time of year...as if the parents are looking for the sympathy card now. Sounds like they aren't hurting to bad to afford these kinds of things for xmas...and to just have them laying around under the tree...Hmmmmmm.....also...why is there no description of the ''''robbers''???? Maybe the whole thing is a ....''scam''......Nahhhhhhhhh...couldn't be.
    • Danbury  •  Weed, United States  •  6 mths ago
      Political correctness in the media tells us that if there is no description of the criminals, they must be black. Maybe the media should also stop reporting the gender of savages like this.
    • AJZ  •  6 mths ago
      An entire segment of our population has been turned into a pack of bloodthirsty savages with no remote sense of morals, true animals - because of the poison of liberalism

      If they want our help finding them we will need a better description, their race would be helpful.

      I am surprised the terminal dinosaur went the politically correct once again by not giving a description. Next the description will be four "YOUTHS"
