      What AL should have is called the Police asap n showed the video to them n they probably
      would have caught the thief. I had a weed eater stolen to many yrs ago. I did get mad but i just
      had to go buy another one asap. It really bugs me that people steal like that SCUMBAGS that's
      what they are. KARMA will come to them sooner or later.

Don’t let it change your beautiful nature. Go home, soak up the love of your awesome family…nobody can take THAT! As we used to say waaaaay back in the 70’s…”Keep on Trucking”

    • @Rpm6971
      @Rpm6971 Год назад +3

      That’s why Karma is a great thing, Al helps people and communities regularly at his cost and his labour, and asking nothing in return, sure he may make a couple bucks from you tube videos, but that’s just more work for him, filming, editing etc…
      That’s why we see so many people donating to Al after the theft (where he says “I hope they needed it more than me”) and Karma will come into play for the person that stole a weed eater from someone who give up their own time to help others. God Bless Al and others like him that still help others not for profit, but because it makes them feel good to help others who may be less fortunate, and or going through health issues.

    • @Rpm6971
      @Rpm6971 Год назад +2

      I’m also guessing that Al probably purchased another weed eater before receiving any money from the very generous people that wanted to help a kind person that helps others. I’m sure any money he receives from people will go right back into equipment or gas to continue to keep helping people for free.
