[citation][nom]socloseyetsofar[/nom]@benage_nzno more than 5 meters, so she must have noticed the guy reach towards the baby, if some unknown dude reached for my kid i'll be interested in a explanation fast like, it might as well been 100 meters given the attention the mother was paying to her kid.[/citation]
The child was left in the middle of an aisle full of products that people might buy. What if the guy was just trying to reach and item that you blocked by just casually leaving your child and stroller in the way? What if all he was doing was moving the stroller to the side a bit to get something? You can say you will do things but when you leave your child alone in the middle of aisle then there is a chance someone will get near because you are blocking the way. Moral here is NEVER leave your child unattended ever, if you are looking for something move the stroller with you and keep it out of the way that way there will be less chance of blocking people and it will be easier to stop someone who is actually trying to do something wrong.

[citation][nom]Razor512[/nom]You have a better chance at getting hit by lightning while on the moon than someone trying to take a baby. Who would want something that makes it their mission to annoy you at every possible moment.If someone wants a baby so bad then they could adopt one of the million or so that are up for adoption (not only would they not get 20 years or so in prison for kidnapping, the state will also give them a monthly payment to help take care of the kid.Kidnapping is something that has a chance of happening in a custody battle, and on movies where someone gets kidnapped and then ransom money is demanded.Only issue is that it is nearly impossible to get ransom money out of anyone, especially if the person owns a iphone (most of the people I know with iphones, spend most of their income on it's insane monthly cost. ransom today will likely at most get you an IOU and a 20% off coupon for a box of cereal.[/citation]

Not sure if you naive or just plain dumb. Kidnapping just to have a baby or to get a ransom (which btw happens way more than getting struck by lightning) isn't the only reason these sicko's kidnap kids. Apparently you don't watch or read the news, since a lot of articles talk about pedophiles kidnapping kids....
