Has society gone soft?

Today’s date is the 20th July ‘23 and here is a little update on things…

The weather recently has been very mixed for much of July. While most of Europe are suffering a terrible Heatwave, we in the UK have had sun, showers and wind with cooler temperatures. The wind has been crazy annoying for me. I often feel not at my best for some reason. Plus it means there is little chance of flying my drone until it is calmer. I did get a chance to get airborne for about 30 minutes on Tuesday. I created a video from it and it is now published on my video page. I also went back into my collection of unused clips and made a showreel video, which was pretty fun to make.

DJI have announced an event for the 25th July for a new product, I’m pretty sure it is the new Air 3 drone. I’m looking forward to see what they have done!

Also this week I stopped a crime. I go to the local shops early in the morning to get a few essentials most days. While being served a youth entered the shop and tried to run off with some expensive washing detergent. I imagine he could sell this for drugs or something. The cashier who was serving me went to apprehend him. I reacted also and caught him before he left the shop and held him while the staff retrieved the goods he wanted to steal. They told me to let him go… I was a bit perplexed but I released him. He then made his way out the shop. I asked if the Police would not want to arrest him, and they told me they will do nothing but let him go anyway! Apparently these drug addicts do it all the time at this shop. I’m left wondering if I should of done anything at all? There seems no deterrent these days for criminals wanting to do crime. Has society gone too soft? I think we have and I find it very frustrating…
