Their ridiculous replies have hundreds/thousands of likes. This is a mindset we saw for months on end in 2020. You wanna talk about racism? Let's have a REAL conversation about racism: black people are RACIST. Particularly uneducated ones that live in cities. They feel they are owed something and support looting and theft. They're entitled to it. There have been countless videos of them doing this in cities across the country the last 3 years. And if you don't agree with them? You're a racist!

Unfortunately I don’t see the video, but generally speaking I have no problem with someone stopping a thief, even though some cities in the US are essentially legalizing under $500 theft.

I believe that's the number I've seen in places

It's not a video. It's screenshots of people calling the guy racist for trying to stop one of the ghetto thiefs. That he just wanted an excuse to hit black women.

Good Lord, no wonder why so many major retail stores are leaving San Fran.

Because that wouldn’t be cool.

Just a good samaritan. Didn’t hit her hard enough.

It really sucks to hear about these daytime store robberies where sometimes large numbers of people just go in and wipe the place out.
It's looting without the riots.
It's sickening.

It feels to me more an excuse not to send cops out/use resources prosecuting those thefts. Here it is $1000. My clients would steal up to that point & get pissed when it went over & they picked up a felony on it.

In the 80s when I worked at Montgomery Wards they would pull up to the doors of the store while their accomplice would dash out with the armload of clothes or whatever they could grab near the doors. Then they would return the items. This is why we have seen store return policies change since then. Lane Bryant had a return policy that they would take back anything no matter how long ago. Now Target & Best Buy tell you on the receipt how many weeks you have to return an item if you changed your mind. It went from return anytime to one had to have that receipt & only had a window of time. Yet when I use that logic on ABBEY, that bad gun owners are making the "responsible"(as he calls it) look bad, he doesn't see the similarity. It is always the worst case scenario people who screw it up for everyone.

Here's the tweet from the news:
With comments. I didn't see any racism ones, but didn't really did much.
Theft is a $100billion dollar per year problem in the U.S. Stopping theft is not racism.
I remember in early covid Mr. Z and I were in the booze dept of walgreens buying scotch for an old friend who couldn't safely shop. It was the first day masks were required. A man (dressed as many in gangs do) walked in (maskless) and picked up three large bottles of some big brown booze and walked right out. No one blinked. No one stopped him. Staff watched him go. I remember remarking: how soon will robbers take advantage of masks. And of course that came. But he didn't seem to care and staff didn't try to stop him. Should a $10 employee put his life at risk for his employer's booze cost? I guess he should maybe want to.
If the intervener were black what would have happened. How soon will stores BAN masks?

Because that wouldn’t be cool. When my husband worked at Vons, they told staff not to stop shoplifters because they weren't trained to do it. They preferred taking the loss to getting sued for injuring the shoplifter or for false arrest because the employee doing the stop didn't follow all the proper procedures. I'm thinking this gal that got tackled could find an attorney that would file a case against TJMaxx over this. That whole deep pockets thing where...I was up for a jury where the guy was suing for an accident that occurred at a particular intersection so he was suing the driver, but also the city claiming the intersection was dangerous due to how the city set it up. The driver who hit him might be declared 90% at fault, but if the lawyer convinced the jury the city screwed up making the intersection, then they would be responsible for 10% of the verdict. So the driver with no money may never fork over his share of a million dollar verdict, but the City owing 10%? So yeah. I can see a lawyer willing to nuisance lawsuit this arrest into cash for this gal.
