I will say that I can imagine DLP changing cast training to look out for the safety of the CM in this situation. If Disneyland Paris' perspective is that it's better to let the company deal with the potential fallout than have a CM risking their own safety, then that sounds reasonable.

DLP is only going to get crazier in terms of guests jumping over barriers if this is the case, though.

The real issue with this going viral is you just know people are going to copy cat this now, to see if they can get away with it.

Haven’t we learned anything from Will Smith?

He da man?

Haha. Well if you want to bring that up, more specifically in this case we learned more from Chris Rock. When Will Smith stormed a stage he was not supposed to be on, Chris Rock did not steal a personal object to get his attention. He held is computer for safety and show.

No personal belongings were stolen.

No personal belongings were stolen.

And violence is never an acceptable answer.

Unless you want to be banned from the resort.

No personal belongings were stolen.

Technically, yes, something was stolen. The fact that I give something back to you does not change the fact that I stole it in the first place.

Now Tom…

Something is considered “stolen” when said object does not belong to someone and that someone has not only taken it, but has not given it back and doesn’t intend to give it back. The CM snatched the ring, yes. Stole it? No.

Please.

I think you would find that your definition is not the legal one and would not hold up in court.

Okay, Tom.

Well, considering the city you’re from, where I could walk into any CVS, Walgreens, etc. and take ANYTHING I want and it’s not considered stealing, I’ll take your definition with a grain of salt…

Okay, Smiley. Lol go off then.

You are mistaken. In French law as in American (though not Canadian), theft is typically defined as takings someone's property with the intention of depriving them of it permanently. That clearly wasn't the CM's intent, so no, nothing was technically stolen (unless you're using the Canadian standard, which is irrelevant in this instance).

While our criminal code does mention 'temporarily' - I doubt anyone here would prosecute that CM based on the filmed evidence.

 

[Dear Prudence]

Also on private property, you follow their rules. You've paid to be a guest there, you did not pay to go to off-limits areas, you did not pay to put other people at risk. If this moment of the proposal were that sacred and important it would not have been this *red flag-y* public display in an off-limits, dangerous area.

 

[LittleBuford]

Absolutely. I almost added something to that effect anyway but thought it too obvious to need stating (but then again, the whole discussion has entered really bizarre and far-fetched territory).

 

[Californian Elitist]

We’re all thieves then.

I hope everyone turns themselves in to their local authorities by Sunday evening.

I once accidentally stole a pack of gum from a gas station and was convinced I'd one day be arrested for it...

And it really was an accident (it's a story...)

You’re most definitely a thief.

I’ve taken and worn my sister’s scarf many times, even without telling her sometimes. I too am a thief, a repeat offender, actually.

We both need to be cuffed and sent to the pen.
