Thief Assures Victim Robbery Will Cost $0 Since Victim Is Paying For It

COLUMBUS, OH—According to sources, local college student Tom Smith was robbed at gunpoint yesterday in the early morning hours as he was getting in his car. In a statement to police, he revealed that the gunman assured him the robbery would cost $0 since it would be paid for by the money being stolen.

"It all happened so fast," said Smith. "He came out of nowhere, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Hands up! This is a socialism, see? Pay yer fair share, see?', and then he proceeded to explain to me that I shouldn't be upset because this robbery was totally paid for and would cost zero dollars."

When Smith inquired to the armed thug as to how the robbery would be paid for, the thief responded saying: "It will be funded by you, since I am taking all your money and your car, which makes this robbery deficit-neutral, and therefore totally free! I don't see what you're so upset about!"

The thief then clubbed the victim on the head free of charge, and drove off with all Smith's earthly possessions, to redistribute them to himself free of charge. Authorities have announced a manhunt for the thief. Latest reports indicate the car has been spotted in Washington D.C.

UFO Files Reveal Aliens Here And Already Defrauded Minnesota For $20 Billion

"They're here among us," alien specialist Donny Marcus told the press. "I've been studying these beings for years — they're smart, and they're resourceful. It took no time at all for them to defraud Tim Walz's government of billions through Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The government didn't even ask why they needed the money; they just forked it over. The invasion people have been anticipating has been happening right under our noses all along."

"We have so many great ideas on how to win, but people keep saying things like 'Hey, that's illegal' or 'That's literally a crime.' It's becoming disheartening."
