$350 for a belt?

Now that is a crime.

"Trayon Christian told NBC 4 New York on Wednesday that he saved up from a part-time job for weeks to buy a Salvatore Ferragamo belt at Barneys."

Haha, what a retard.

I feel like there's more to it than what he claims happened. I'd rather read the story after the conclusion of the lawsuit, not at the start of one. Either way, if they actually did do it solely because of a clerk's call then the cops are idiots.

Buying a $350 belt sounds pretty dumb but those cops as far as I know are also fucking retarded

What does it matter if he bought $350 belt or not? It's his damn money he can do whatever he wants.
