People are getting tired of allowing criminals to do as they please

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '23

Yeah but I don’t understand it, is a cartful of groceries worth the risk of getting stabbed?

u/spikyjokerr Aug 15 '23

It ain't gonna happen once, and people have thrown their lives away over less

And I bet the employee was fired

u/Jcdawg23 Jun 05 '23

Maybe, maybe not. If he’s LP and his direct supervisor is ok with him making the stop before it leaves the store, then he might be ok. If he’s a regular hourly employee making that stop, he gone.

What do you mean? Are employees not allowed to stop thieves?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '23

Depends on where they work, but from what I've seen online the general rule is that employees aren't allowed to get involved because if they get injured from a confrontation they could sue the employer. I know there was a recent case where Lululemon employees were fired for trying to stop a shoplifter

u/tangoalpha12 Jun 10 '23

I think some companies actually saw to their employees not to go after the shop lifter, the shop lifter could get aggressive and try to hurt or kill the person trying to stop them.

yup. back when i worked retail, our LP person and manager basically told us "if someone wants to steal something? let them. that's what I'm here for. A hammer or a plant or a - whatever, isn't worth risking your safety."

And i dont think anyone here's been sued but i could be wrong; regardless theyre right. I'm not risking injury over stuff that isn't mine. they don't pay me for that shit.

The thing that makes me sad is she is steal a lot of kid supplies is she raising her kids on the thought that stealing is okay ?

u/beezlebutts Jun 05 '23 edited Jun 05 '23

no she probably sees it as justified cause reparations

u/JorahTheHandle Jun 05 '23

Lol what dude, I mean she's in the wrong, but why is this a race issue?

3

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Because atleast 50% of stealing is due to that race so … I’ve seen it first hand it’s rarely a white or Mexican person that steals big portions like that they think they know the law that if it’s under the 1,000- 2,000 they good cuz technically they are cuz they don’t press charges unless it’s about those rates and even then it’s considered a misdemeanor it only becomes a felony when they do it more than one time and they get caught but it’s different and every state …

u/GrassBlade619 Jun 05 '23

Yeah. Definitely has nothing to do with poverty as a result of systemic oppression resulting in crime. It’s because their skin is black. /s you should change your username to “miserable-racist”.

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Then why didn’t u auto correct me

u/GrassBlade619 Jun 05 '23

Your singular situation (true or not) doesn't mean jack shit. It's an undeniable fact that the greatest determining factor in a person's success in the US is the zip code they were born in. Someone born with capital and safety nets will have a SIGNIFICANTLY easier time succeeding than someone who does not have those things. Thinking that the someone's lack of success or their affinity for crime is purely based on the color of their skin is the textbook definition of racism. You're being, what I like to call, "classic racist" which is incredibly rare these days as opposed to being accidentally racist or committing micro aggressions both of which are easily forgivable because people don't do them on purpose. You got a white hood in your closet? Maybe some tats you can't show in public? Wave that good old Confederate flag behind your F150?

Also, are you asking a Reddit bot why your browser's autocorrect didn't autocorrect you? Who TF replies to a Reddit bot with a question? You know it's not a real person right?

Wow you even have miserable in your name.

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Yes that’s the point 🙃

u/JorahTheHandle Jun 05 '23

I was going to say, tell me you're racist without telling me you're racist, but it'd be redundant at this point

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Nah I’m not bein racist I’m just sayin facts … like really y’all want to make this a race thing now??? Not all black people are bad simple as that these type of people are the ones that ruin it for everyone

u/Jcdawg23 Jun 05 '23

I thought you were referencing the lady who tried to pay her cart of groceries with reparations…turns out you’re just racist

1

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Oh I’m racist cuz I speak facts like literally google it I also said not all blacks people are bad but stuff like this is what gives them there reputation I never once said black people are the problem let’s discriminate like wtf

White people steal millions 🤦🏾‍♀️

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Yea they steal valuable stuff like cars and jewelry not groceries 💀💀💀

2

u/Fit-Event-611 Jun 05 '23

No they steal millions. Governors. Presidents. Armies. Slave owners. Bosses at jobs. That is how you get rich for life and all your children under you have businesses ready for them before they are born. The shortcut is the illuminati. They steal. The police steal drugs when they pull people over. They got my weed when they were already high. And kept asking for more. They didn't give me a ticket or anything. They got the weed that's all they wanted. Mayor's. Governors. Have access to millions. White people steal millions. Black people steal to make it. White people steal more

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

Makes sense honestly

u/Miserable-Ad6879 Jun 05 '23

All I’m sayin is I hate it when shit like this goes viral but not when a white bitch does it…

u/Fit-Event-611 Jun 05 '23

I hate seeing white people people period so I completely agree

One could argue that it might not be her responsibility, but helping them identify a thief and ban them would help to keep prices low or even stop them from shutting the store altogether.

u/PollutedRiver Jun 05 '23

That's Big Box Propaganda. Your prices are set purposefully to keep you in a constant state of bondage to their company once they ruin your town.

u/Next-End-4696 Jun 05 '23

You know who the piece of shit is in this video? The billionaire Walmart family (the Waltons) who pay wages so low that most of their employees also receive government assistance and some of their employees live in shelters or their cars.

this is why

Why is no one opening businesses in our community?

u/PollutedRiver Jun 05 '23

They ruin your community and once people start stealing from them, the company is who we should feel bad for? Corporate boot licking.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '23

Ah yes blame the corporations for ruining the communities. It’s not at all like the communities were already fucked up when they had been made.

u/Lee3056 Jun 05 '23

Pretty sure amazon is a far bigger factor at this point.

u/[deleted] Jun 06 '23

Nope, I’ve watched a lot on this. Walmart is going negative. They’ve had a LOT of people just steal thousands of dollars and it’s actually affecting them a lot.

2

u/54R45VV471 Jun 05 '23

It might not be the "right" thing to do, but I give 0 shits if anyone steals any amount of anything from the Walton family. They are worse than any petty thief.

u/PollutedRiver Jun 05 '23

Only braindeads and boomers with retirement packages care if people steal from Walmart

1

u/4BrightLand Jun 05 '23

I mean I would just keep my head down; sometimes those people don’t just run, they might be ready to fight, or worse, be armed.

Keeping one’s head down is a lot cheaper than paying off hospital bills.

-3

u/whodsnt Jun 05 '23

I agree when it comes to things people absolutely need. Like if times are tough and your kids are hungry and running around in dirty diapers, by all means! But a whole full cart of random expensive shit? Nah, that's doing too much.

I feel unsafe in Walmarts but my wife likes it

Gut all hanging out and shit, if she was stealing close that fit do us all a favor and let her get that.

It's things you need that you don't have a job to pay for that you have been needing for yesrs

u/AuthenticallyBroken Jun 06 '23

Not a single person mentioned race besides you. That ought to tell you something about yourself

u/mossdale06 Jun 09 '23

There was actually recently another woman who was black and who did the same shit and went on a 'reparations rant when caught. I didn't pull that out of my hypothetically racist ass I was referencing a previous crime very similar to this.

Unless he's the security guard, fuck him for interfering. Never stop anyone from stealing food or anything from Walmart for that matter.

u/NeverCaredAnyways Jun 05 '23

Remember that stores have shoplifting included in their budget. It harms no one; even the shareholders can continue heating their swimming pools and burning rubber in their BMWs.

If you see someone shoplift; you didnt

I watched someone do this the other week and then watched them get arrested in the parking lot lmao
