I feel like he is in the wrong even if the previous owners mishandled their store.
He should have compensated the lego owner for any sold inventory and given the rest back.
Then he should have sued the previous owners for compentsation for any wrong doings.
It would have made Bricsk and minifigs the heroes in this.

He's in the wrong because he is literally caught saying corporate would take over the consignment when then pretended to be retard to steal the product.

Lol, that's not a forgery, little brother. E-signing contracts on a smart phone is an entirely normal thing to do. It's Karen's fault for not reading what she signed. Obviously no court would uphold such a ridiculous contract that is not clearly presented, but that is not the same thing as forging a signature. You're clearly just grasping at straws to cover for your little mormon fuck buddies

>>11808826
kek, that's not the smoking gun you think it is, retard. If anything, this is factual proof that he did not forge anything, because nothing in the contract was false. It was PRESENTED falsely, but that's explicitly abscent from the legal definition you posted, and therefore maybe just shut the fuck up. Because every post you make just makes your entire faggot cult look stupider

>>11808859
Stating facts is not the same as sucking dick.
Stop subscribing to ideologies and learn to think for yourself.
BAM has fucked up, PD is corrupt, Ben made several critical legal mistakes and did mislead the viewers.
All of these are not contradictory to each other and can all be true at the same time.
>>
>>
>>11808865
I generally agree with that statement.
IMO both sides can be justified here - and by both sides I mean Ben and lawyers that tell him this could've and likely should've been handled better.
BAM and their private security team wearing police badges cannot really be justified.
From the standpoint of the lawyers, there were several avenues to approach this 100% correctly and 100% legally without causing a massive scandal and without exposing Ben and his team to very real and very justified liability.
This approach would actually have the highest probability of succeeding in getting BAM themselves to be forced to admit fault and return the merchandise, the money, preferably both.
Because of how one-sided the case is and how overwhelming the evidence was, finding a lawyer who would agree to work on contingency should've not been a problem, which would directly solve the
>we'll drag it out in court so much you'll waste more money than you could ever help to gain
threat.
Even right now the claims BAM makes regarding the reasons they took over the store, the alleged illegality of the consignment agreement do not absolve them of the specific accusation of effectively stealing the collection.
Taking their claims at face value simply results in a situation where their shop would be holding someone's else possession with no legal grounds to claim it.
Some other lawyer has brought up a good point about pawn shops - if the possession of a pawn shop is found to be stolen, it will be confiscated and returned to the original owner. Simply holding items does not entitle one to own them.
>>
>>11808865
But from Ben's perspective, or more like from the perspective of the public interest, BAM and their personal PD on payroll was clearly demonstrated to be acting maliciously, in bad faith, and way out of line.
So, in a very reversed
>the ends justify the means
I think that what Ben did was ultimately wrong, dumb, stupid, and incorrect, however the opposing party is intentionally abusing their power to make good faith and proper legal interaction with them to be as difficult as possible, and the degree of their audacity was so ridiculously severe, whatever very real crimes and offenses Ben commit are the lesser of two evils here, as bringing publicity to this case.
BAM was deserving a much more severe punishment than ~$100k + legal fees of both parties for the shit they were pulling off behind the scenes, and by this point, even if the court sentences Ben to a 30 years of continuous execution, he had already caused more damage to BAM than the proper legal process ever could've. At least an order of magnitude more, possible orders.
In that regard, while he's ultimately not a good actor in this case, and his behavior should not be replicated - the ultimate results of his actions end up a huge public service.
So I don't think Ben was "right" to do most of what he did but I am personally glad that he did all of that.
>>
>>11808879
>In that regard, while he's ultimately not a good actor in this case, and his behavior should not be replicated
I disagree, I think he is and I think it should be. Luige shot the CEO of UnitedHealthcare as he walked out of a meeting where they agreed that denying legitimate claims would lead to a net profit because people wouldn't have the means or time to fight them. What's happening here with Ben isn't new, corporations have been doing this for like 10 years at this point and it's only getting worse. I can cite you numerous examples.
I truly believe it's going to get much worse before it gets better. While people still have this idea in their minds this battle can be fought fairly it will never get better.
>>
>>11808889
The problem is that you can't challenge bad-faith abuses of the legal system with literal violence.
You are agreeing with those specific cases because you feel aligned with them.
I doubt you will be as supportive for something you don't align with as much.
Vigilante justice is a very romantic idea but the reason the entire world has laws is because allowing individuals make judgements personally and execute upon them ALWAYS led to problems.
You are asking for a system that can address bad-faith actors abusing another system and your proposed solution (vigilante justice) is the single system most vulnerable to being abused by bad-faith actors.
>>
>>
>>
>>11808911
You say that but you implicitly rely on the "rigged game" being there.
Because if it's not, nothing is stopping corporations from hiring private armies and just killing off whoever disagrees with them.
You like the system, you rely on the system being there, but you also want to not be bound by the rules of the system - and that's just means you want to commit crimes and not be punished for that.
There is no higher justice there. Your train of thought is functionally identical to the train of throught of someone who would break into a house to rob it and murders the family inside because they happened to be there.

Neither of those are arguments.
You "guys" lack critical thinking and grab onto ideas emotionally and/or partisanly.
That's a very female thought process.
The problem is even if we steelman your point, you're still wrong, naïve and retarded.
Absence of law would simply make those who already have resources and power stronger - not weaker.
You're comparing several anecdotes to a fundamental change to the system, where everything is allowed, and your retarded underage female brain thinks it will come up on top somehow?
Good luck with that.

Look at any civilisation historically. Where has change been most profound? Was it by protesting? Was it via the legal system? Was it accomplished with well-articulated discourse? No. It was done with violence. Not bureaucracy. Violence. You say that it is 'wrong' to resort to 'vigilante justice' because it is prone to abuse by 'bad faith actors' but if the current system is already rewarding bad faith actors what, precisely, is the difference?
What you need to understand is that society is cyclical. We go through rises. We go through falls. When society begins to fail it gets violent. When society begins to succeed it becomes peaceful. Literal violence is an inevitable, normal, process.

Listening to some of you advocate for open murder in the streets just because you perceive someone is rich or more well off than yoy or does something you perceive to be wrong is actually pretty concerning. The whole trying to turn Luigi into some kind of martyr or hero to the people is fucking insane. And no, I'm not defending CEOs criminal activity. But openly murdering and advocating for murder in the streets is fucking bananas.
The ironic thing being as soon as open violence erupted, the retards advocating for it would be the first to lock themselves in their closets to his while trying to stifle their wimpers and cries. You little cucks act like big boys but when the time comes you all always inevitably crumple to the ground and cry.
>>
>>
>>11809016
I actually agree with that part, however in absolutely every single case the violence was done to bring order.
A different order, but order still.
There wasn't a single civilization that survived as anarchy.
If you want to revolt - be my guest, that's a cause one could argue for, but supporting individuals committing crime is not the same as revolting, and the former will not lead to the later either, because allowing lawless behavior always brings bad-faith actors in, no exceptions.
Your movement, whatever it is, that had any potential of becoming a revolution then becomes defined by those bad actors, and you lose public support, which is paramount for any sort of revolution of having any chance of succeeding.
The only system that inherently implies anarchy is communism - a known idealistic utopia.
And every single socialistic country who attempted to start building communism did so through dictatorship, because even in a perfectly executed scenario, the only time where anarchy can function requires extremely high-trust society, which is simply not the reality we live in.
Allowing crime to happen makes turns society low-trust, meaning you will not be able establish any form of self-governance as, again, that's a system exceptionally vulnerable to bad actors exploiting it, and you're actively supporting the existence of said bad actors, undermining your own goals that way.

>>11809035
I mean, we already have an idea of what a low trust society looks like. Have any of you walked into a store in a high crime area? Everything is behind glass literally everything. There's a Target by my old high school I used to go to pretty regularly after school. It was a normal Target when I graduated in the 2000s. Now, I need to ask an employee to unlock a case if I want to grab a Marvel Legend off the shelf.
Same thing happened to a GameStop I used to go to that was in a shittier mall. They literall6 were locking toys up in the pegs. That is before that store finally closed. Hell, Mcdonalds is apparently removing the self serve soda machines because roody poos can't help themselves and fill their water cups with soda. I recently witnessed an altercation where some redgaurd threatens to "come back later" to a Carl's Jr after a worker confronted him over stealing soda. We're talking like three cents worth of soda here.
You don't want to live in a low trust society. It just makes things entirely more inconvenient and obnoxious.

Yes, I agree, but when you try to revolt you're effectively splitting society into parts. Your society and their society.
Then your society is attempting to overturn their society. It is YOUR society that has to be high-trust if you want a high-trust society after the revolution.
And it becomes increasingly more important the less centralized governance you want in the end.
For example, take Britain.
Restore Britain is an actual example of how you could potentially engineer a revolution.
They are spreading their ideas, they are making consistent, dividing, and specific promises, and they are creating a support base. They are NOT committing crime. In fact, it's their opposition who is committing most of the crime in their country.
Now, I'm not saying that there will be a Great British Revolution anytime soon, even if they could really use one, but if hypothetically Restore Britain had over 50% of public support, that would be a nearly perfect example for a successful revolution to be sparked and most importantly induce tangible change of their society.
But when you are sharding society in a way where you deliberately invite bad actors into YOUR group - which is exactly what you're doing by commending crime - you will never be able to have a high-trust society as the final product.
You have already failed the pre-requisite for that.
Even if you do revolt and you are victorious, you will just replace one low-trust society with another one because of all the bad actors you brought in along the way.

Amd the fact that there are people out there that share your sentiments is exactly why I made my statement about being concerned for society as a whole. Have a nice day, don't rub your two little brain cells together too hard little Timmy.

Oh poor sweet summer child. Those of us that grew up around Mormons knew exactly what was going on. Mountain jews hate us gentiles and dont really believe are laws have dominion over them. They are justified to lie, cheat, steal and even kill the gentiles if need be. They will not face judgment from God for these acts.

I hope Brian doesn't take the settlement tho.

not only that but "investing" in collectables carries much higher risk and cost than a boring traditional financial product. when you want to sell your "valuable" collectables you're likely going to go through a dealer with some sort of auction or consignment deal and they will hit you with a bunch of middleman fees and the reason you do that is that listing your shit yourself on ebay opens you up to the risk of getting scammed by buyers who open disputes against you to try and steal back their money after the sale. there's also the problem of liquidity, even if we assume that your "rare" collectable is worth thousands of dollars you still need to find a buyer for it, even if the entire collectable market agrees on its value that doesn't guarantee you can sell if in a timely manner. it's a market full of retards and anyone crying about being fucked on a lego deal deserves all the pain they are in whether they are the buyer or the seller.

Not necessarily. A company can almost ALWAYS, in basically every state, fire an employee or shut down a franchisee because of them dragging the company's name through the mud with zero legal repercussion for doing so. This bald retard was most likely told "you're fired and never allowed to work with the business again. You're free to sue us, but because you're an objective PR liability you'll never win and have to pay US in the end". That's, quite literally, how this particular scenario always works, legally-speaking. You've got innumerable cases of this, especially in the past 20 or so years.

im not a virulent cop hater because i know that cops at the end of the day do have an important job whenever they arent waiting at the bottom of mile long hills to get someone going 6 over, but i am acutely aware that they are not your friends and its an act of god if one is going to actually help you. Cops are by far and large some of the most retarded, narcissistic, crybaby, egotistical, corrupt motherfuckers that exist and its important to never ever speak to one unless you absolutely have too, and you should do it with a lawyer present.
They wipe their ass with the constitution and belittle you when you know youre rights better than they do

Qualified immunity is the most insane thing that exists. Ignorance of the law is no excuse unless you have the power to permanently fuck up someones life. I get why they did it but Ben and frens saying anything other than nothing or "lawyer" to the cops was a huge mistake.

Because collectors and scalpers are not equal. You're getting pissy about scalpers and projecting that onto all collectors. Collectors care more about being a completionst or just having the sets they want, than cornering a market and acquiriing all the stock they can. and often don't even try to sell their shit, because they care more about having it than turning a profit on it, because they actually care about it, much like yourself. They also heavily support toy companies by buying more product than you do, driving more of a demand for them to fulfill. If anything, you should be more upset at the toy companies for intentionally limiting the supply, and creating opportunities for scalpers to jack up the price 2 or 3x just a month after the new sets release

>The problem is that you can't challenge bad-faith abuses of the legal system with literal violence.
You absolutely can and that is in fact exactly what should be done. You cannot fight a corrupt system within the system itself, that's the whole point of a corrupt system to begin with.

Probably some mix of both. A lot of retards seem to think people should care about Ben's ethics here. When the entire issue has to do with a company, police corruption and potential Mormon conspiracy. This has gone way beyond the actions of an individual or a group of friends.

You are assuming it will be a jury trial, but not all trials even have a jury. If they do go to a jury trial, either side could easily file for a mistrial on the grounds of how insanely viral this story was, and claiming it would be impossible to find an impartial jury, or that the entire jury pool has been unfairly prejudiced.
>>11810069
Like I said above, having an obviously stacked jury can easly blow up in your face. And both lawyers have the opportunityto remove potential jurors during the selection process. The people they really want are not people who are obviously prejudice, Both lawyers are looking more for gullible rubes who they can sway with their argument

>>11810070
A lot of people genuinely can't grasp that the only way to handle a situation where the entire system is blatantly corrupt is to find someone who has absolutely no issue with finding every retarded loophole in that system. In generations prior it would have been some insane pseudo-terrorist, but in our modern era the play was finding someone so overtly contentpilled that he'll go to any extreme to ensure the video gets made.

I didn't watch the legal faggots video, but I've seen like 5 other lawyer reactions. I feel like the worst thing they can get him for is one count of interfering with a business, for that time he set up a merch table outside, and openly claimed that he successfully turned away 1 customer. Might be retarded, but yes, that still counts as interference, both in the intent and the goal. He MIGHT have enough grounds to litigate his way out of that one. But he also openly states his goal of that stunt was for them to take him to court, which implies he knew he was breaking one or more law but didn't care. Worst case scenario, I think Ben has to eat that one charge, but he can cover whaever legal fees and fines he's charged off the paetreon/gofundme. And then he can still keep pressing charges against the police and private individuals for all the other private BS
>>
>>11810070
To be fair, Ben kind of dug himself a hole at some points. At the same time, its also helped dig BAM even bigger holes so he's taking them down in the process.
The sad part is the CEO will probably get out with a golden parachute while the rest of the company, who probably most did nothing wrong, suffers from his foolishness. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if thats his plan and why he's being such a blatantly evil person because there will be no hard consequences for him at the end.

Probably most profound change of a society in history was Christianization of Rome. That was non-violent. Suppose Charlie did force the pagans to convert under the axe blade though.
Im worried about political violence. I think the elites have less than 10 years to course correct before we eat them. I think they are planning on hiding in bunkers and shit when it happens.
What worries me is Im starting to feel a sense of violence and rage. And am more and more starting to think we should just pull the trigger. It scares me because I am extremely nuanced and fair when it comes to politics. I understand history. Im a moderate. Have voted for both parties...
If im feeling this way normal people are about to explode.

BUT ALSO, Ben and his team NEED to be present at the BAM settlement for it to be fully above board. PRESUMABLY according to he 1st video, Bryan sold off most or all of the remaining stock being withheld by BAM to Ben and his compatriots, with contracts and bills of sale so they could do the small claims court scheme. And they went so far as to get a notary public to stamp their bills of sale.
So here's how I think it shakes out... BAM drops ALL THE FUCKING CHARGES AGAINST EVERYONE. BAM settles with team Ben privately paying out the 100k from small claims court(which immediately goes to Brian), with the stipulation that there is a MUTUAL apology with corporate, and also he apologies to the mormon police and drops all those charges.the lawyers get their cut of gofundme/paetreon, and then Brian gets a cut, and then Ben keeps the rest.
Everyone wins except Josh, because fuck that nigger

Oh btw, at the recent UK protests people were throwing bricks at the police (rightly) chanting "brick by brick"
People are so fucking sick of this shit. So fucking sick...
I think at least 33% of men at least would be willing to die for the possibility of a better system, rather than continue in this one. If only because this one doesnt have hope.
You know... like just a random example. Tinder. You can debate about if its really made dating impossible or whatever. But it definitely makes peoples mental health worse, and I cant imagine it contributes positively for people looking for relationships.
So honestly, if youre a young man, and true or not, this fucking "product" has made it harder for you to find love and companionship... AND IT WAS DONE ON PURPOSE. These fucking products are DESIGNED to exploit us.
But man if you have nothing and no hope... why WOULDNT you kill the people you think created that situation.
Matter of fact i bet its more than 33% (you only need 33 to overthrow society).
Google common knowledge problem game theory. I think once something happens that makes everyone understand that everyone else is also willing to be violent... BAM. Overnight. French revolution. Producers news anchors ceos will be pulled from their houses, lynched, pulled apart by mobs, etc.

Yes. the 1%ers of society already own their own fully stocked doomsday bunkers that can actually survive a direct nuclear strike. Infact many of them have multiple bunkers. Because having this safety net only costs them like like 2-3% of their annual income to construct, and then .002% of their annual income to maintain at max rediness
Real real trick is that if things that bad, they need to go full Vault Tech, and have both fallible land that they run a crop rotation on, but also a maintainable working class that can work the fields, the richfags always need the poorfags

No, repaying evil with more evil never solves anything.
The good news is the good doers in this case vastly outnumber the bad doers. Sure the bad guy(s) in this situation has a lot of power and money, but that only gets you so far in life. There's too much evidence against him that his only defense is to delay things and make things as hard as possible in facing the consequences. He'll face his just desserts though, oh don't we worry. The end result he wants is being surrounded by lots of money, attracting wicked people, little to no trust in anyone, and not many (if any) friends there to help him. He can turn that around if he does the right thing for himself and the people he's hurt, but unfortunately that doesn't seem like the road he wants to head down.
>>11810222
Its both comforting and funny knowing that despite all our differences, humans still need other humans to keep things going. And the plan to replace humans with robots is flawed since robots still need maintenance and highly advanced expertise. Making robots to fix other robots only delays the inevitability of something breaking that can't be fixed by a robot.

legal eagle on YouTube clarify some stuff.
1. half the legos were sold by the lady and the family got their money for half.
2. before leaving the lady returned around 15 thousand worh of legos to the family including the cloud city Lego set worth 9k.
so 115 thousand dollars worth of the collection are accounted for. not defending BAM. but that fact matters
so BAM still has 85 thousand dollars worth of Legos. but the family would only get 65% of that
the family is owed 55,250 dollars right now.

Ammon is a fucked name as is. And incredibly ironic to have as a Mormon. In the Bible and the Torah, Ammonites were the descendants of incest through Lot, who fucked both the thots he called daughters. Ammonites worshipped Milcom, Molech, Moloch, offering their offspring up for slaughter.

I'll never get over that time their armed vigilantes literally executed two black kids who stole a car and were tearing the place up.

The precedent that the company will fold when literally the entire world is shitting on them for their obviously corrupt practices? Nigger, that's not a precedent, that's just common fucking sense. These types of undisclosed settlements happen all the time, and the BEST thing they can do for the company is to wrap it up, from every angle, and just be done with it as fast as they can. Any single loose end they leave is going to be something for the public to latch onto, and just keep the bad PR going

New Ben vlog video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRw04ibXqHU
You know the more Ben goes into detail about everything, the more sketchy everything looks.
Also B&M released a timeline:
https://bricksandminifigs.com/blog/blog/2026/06/04/bricks-and-minifigs -salem-store-timeline/
I mean take it with a grain of salt, but taking the above Ben video into account this is looking a little sus.

Under literally no circumstances can that be the case. If it were, B&M could have EASILY fought it in court, and wouldn't need Mormon police corruption to cover their asses.

>>11810837
I mean to be fair she was atleast $97k in debt to B&M, a Portland antifa member, and her and her cuck husband publish commie books about bashing the fash and they were planning to leave the country because they were worried orange man was going to come and kill them. So she's not exactly a trustworthy individual.

Not going to happen. For it to be defemation, the statements being said have to be made either with intentional bad faith, or reckless disregard for the truth. Ben has the defense of attempting to talk it out in good faith at the begining, and they told him nothing. BAM has the defense of saying the fattest crack baby in the world lied to them, and they were attempting to act in their own best interest given the facts. The police have the defense of qualified immunity. And Crystal has the defense of being outside the jurisdiction of the state of Oregon.

Yes. As stated above, Ammon is a very mormon name, and mormons are all thieves and liars and sexual deviants. But their religion teaches them that that's okay. So obviously you can probably find a couple dozen Ammons who have stolen lego. It's meer coincidence that they stole the same ammount

Are they targeted by a gang of fraudsters extorting money?
Serious question. One of the first thoughts that came to my mind on this matter was: is there a connection between the alleged Lego owner and the former store owner?
