How ironic! All the robbery cases are either pending or facing so little consequences while the innocent cashiers and sale persons are fired right away. Such a total collapse of the justice system.
Exactly then they wonder why it's getting worse 😂
Just act like you don't see nothing and get as far away from the shoplifter as you can. Let him and all of your friends steal from there. Home Depot can go out of business as far as I can care.
That’s why we need to punish companies that ask employees to protect their profits or face unemployment.
Well that’s your libtard state of Cali for you. You all voted for Garcetti again so you get what you deserve
@@comunityblogger8729 what new law?
The way he shoved that guy down for doing absolutely nothing was disgusting. There was no reason for him to push that man like that and take his life. I hope he gets life in prison
You are too soft. The senior dude is dead. Prison is a joke.
The animal that killed the 82 year old man needs a rope and tree.
I don't like what's going on in China, but we might need to start taking organs as payment, social credit scores to do anything in life (digital currency), mass ai surveillance, big brother (but open).
Or maybe that's why they let them out so easy?
@@luigivincenz3843 ???
I hope he gets the death penalty.
I'm so sorry for Gary and his family. Imagine killing an elderly person over 3 power washers. He pushed him as if he was nothing. He had absolutely no concern or care for a fellow human being, an elderly person to boot. I hope the guy gets the maximum sentence.
This why y’all don’t like black people. I blame hip hop.
This makes my blood boil,
Everyone knows for a fact that he wouldn't dare do the same thing to his father! 🤬
@@Eduardo_Espinoza Sure he would.
@@Eduardo_Espinoza do you actually think he knows who his father is? The mother had him out of wedlock and that is the reason he is the way he is.
He will get nothing slap on the wrist and the victim will be blamed.
For the grandpa that was killed , I feel so sad for you , the only thing that could have done that to an elderly man is a wild animal , they need to lock him up and throw away the key 🔑 😢
NO NO NO . BANG BANG BANG NO MERCY.
He has been arrested and in this state, N.C., I can assure everyone he will go to prison for a long, long time.

you already know
He got charged with first degree murder, which is pretty huge, so at least it's something.
@@smuthrob I wouldn't hold my breath.
This is absolutely infuriating. I have a friend that owns a small women's clothing boutique -she has to deal with this crap all the time and for a small shop, it is devastating.

☠️
Aww....too bad. Homeowners have to deal with people stealing fruit from the tree in our yard without asking, but you want to complain about INSURED merchandise? Seriously? I grow mangoes which are NOT insured and are organic and people steal them
Have her sell online only. Very little overhead costs and more profit. I don't shop for clothes in stores.
@@greenelephant1231 Maybe you don't know why this is happening? Prop 47, theft under $950 has been knocked down to a misdemeanor. Some comedians and other social influencers started spreading the misinformation that theft under $1,000 had been decriminalized. Do you know how insurance works? The consumer gets their premiums raised and that's if the insuring agency even allows them to keep their policy. Mangoes are $21/bushel or $10/layer for retail, so about 55 cents to $1 per lb. You would need to farm 1,000-2,000lbs to pay for ONE of the electronic devices stolen. I'm guessing that there have been more than 2,000 such thefts so, buddy, you would need all the mangoes in Florida to pay for that. How about you just stop defending criminals?
The politicians who change the laws on shoplifting should be held accountable
All going as planne(D)
democrats
yeah coz that happens all the time.
So should the people who vote Democrat.
We can't all get jobs making war weapons.
Back in the 70's i was a loss prevention officer for a local department store in a northern major metropolitan area. We wore streetclothes, carried chemical mace, handcuffs and pistols (we had CCW's). We had training. We also employed some police officers who worked on a part-time basis. Shoplifters were arrested, sent to jail and prosecuted. If they fought and resisted arrest, then those charges were added on. When these pros know a store is weak, then they will clean it out and steal you blind.
That all costs money to maintain which is why it all got axed the moment the economy started getting weak. Oh, hmm...
@@CoyoteSeven the economy isnt getting weak. The rich are just squizzing you.
@J.M. Luna no, it all got axed the moment melanin became part of the equation for not arresting and charging people.
yeah and you scumbags harass and follow me when I shop with money all the time and socially profile me. I am happy to see these stores suffer as I do wherever I go shopping being followed and stalked.
And 99% of them are black.
When signs went up in the US Post Offices
Minimum jail time 20 years for armed robbery those crimes dropped significantly.
Not only do they lock everything up, once you get it unlocked the store employee escorts you to the register to make sure you pay. Once again the law abiding citizens get screwed while the criminals get to run wild.
a sufficiently intent criminal will just take the item from the employee while being "escorted"
EXACTLY 💯
Workers should not be put at risk.
@Pustule Pete he never said otherwise that's just you mistaking what he was saying.......

My heart goes out to the family ofnthe 82 year old murdered at Home Depot by a thief over 3 pressure washers. Seems like the elderly greeters and receipt checkers at retail stores need to be a thing of the past. Bouncers and cattle shoots instead of exits. I don't want to pay increased prices for these thieves to thrive.
Seriously good idea. Metal sally ports. Have to get buzzed through both doors. Hold the thieves until the cops show up.
Even the security system monitor has to be locked away in a steel casing and high above the angry thieving apes to avoid being stolen.
@@cvn6555 yes that's the way banks are in most other countries and jewelry store and fun stores etc
If the cops show up.
Implement Electric fences 💣💥
When he fell that is just heart wrenching. My prayers go out to his family. I hope they prosecute the individual to the fullest.
killed by a savage black
Boil that sh1tb@g in oil!
They should refuse to prosecute this fiery but mostly peaceful theft. Cashless bail is the only answer.
Firing squad, spend 30$ on the scum bag.
I hope every greedy satanic Corp in America gets stolen outta business. They been robbing us since they opened its doors. It ain't like they not gettin reimburse from sum insurance company who is btw in on the take. Phawk them
This is very sad to watch. I'm a law enforcement officer, and wish I was there at one of these events. It's a shame how low the U.S. has gone. I'm very sorry for the families and businesses and losses. It's a shame they don't have Security or off duty officers at the stores. I commend the employees that chased the thieves, but the employers fired them. Shameful!
Lmgdao bih
That's the policy at most retail stores nowadays. For fear of a false arrest lawsuit or whatever else the crook might cook up, we do nothing and just ignore it due to the many dangers of confronting people in an angry, violent country. You never know who means to do you harm, but you're a cop so I'm preaching to the choir I guess!
AGREED !! He pushed him like he was a piece of crap !!
Thank you ❤for your service!!
Deep shame that US is turning into a crime party, good nice people get hurt everyday.
RIP to Gary and condolences to his family. This is one of the main reasons retail struggles to hire. No one wants to put themselves in harms way.
Most stores tell u never to stop shoplifters or go after them
@@bryanjames7528 most stores do tell you this. Gary wasn't going after anyone. He was going to ask for a receipt. So he was an elderly man perceived to be a threat. These criminals are becoming more brazen. You never know what they will do.
It's really sad as anyone's elderly family member who wanted to just be out of house interacting with other people for little pay could be the next victim to these thugs..
Soon these businesses will feel like walking into a prison and everything will be locked up like businesses are doing in San Francisco.. The goal is to reduce the consequences for these crimes to cause more lawlessness. Once no one feels safe, idiots will want government to be bigger to step in to govern/enslave us more.
People need to fight back. Vigilante's will rise if the crimes go unpunished.
Your condolences are meaningless if you voted Democrat.
@@HD-er2cq Plus it's the fact that black people have a seething hatred for white people in this country. There are tens of thousands of videos of blacks attacking whites, running up to elderly white people on the street and sucker punching them, hitting them over the head with bricks, pulling them out of their cars and beating them and then stealing their car, not for money, but just for a joy ride, for fun. This is happening ALL OVER THE COUNTRY right now and no one's talking about it. The only reason it's apparent to me is because they record themselves doing this because they're proud of it and then they upload it to websites like world star and other websites that host these kinds of videos. They're proud of it.
I don't understand thieves are allowed to walk out without any intervention, but paying customers are often accused of stealing, are detained, insulted and embarrassed in front of other shoppers, and after they are given proof that all items were paid for, they don't offer up an apology or a gift card for detaining you. It has happened to me at Walmart, so I know it must happen to others.
Yes, it has happened to me more than once also.Treated like a thief while the real thieves get a green light.
If this keeps up, you'd be better off doing the same thing.
By law in CA, we can't accuse anyone of stealing, detain or other due to the fact that we could be sued. We have to catch them in the actual act of theft, and security does what they can, but only law enforcement can arrest. We need stronger laws for shoplifting, because it's a high risk to employees. Many will threaten lawsuits for discrimination, when they are actually breaking the law by stealing from us. Its pretty unbelievable.
Start assaulting the employees as you are leaving then they will leave you alone. Store policy, you know.
@@projectbandshirt4329 I was in Arizona, I ran to the store in the early morning because my husband had dementia, and I wanted to grab my groceries and get home before he woke up. I was so upset when they kept me in the store checking and rechecking my purchases trying to figure out what I stole. When I got home, I called the manager and told her about the incident, and she said I had to come back to the store for whatever reason. I couldn't leave my husband he was in mid-stage 6 and needed to be supervised constantly. I was near tears I was so upset; I haven't been back since that incident. My husband passed away within the year of that incident. Walmart needs to teach their employees that cucumbers are not high on the list of valuable things to steal, if I'm going to get arrested for stealing it sure isn't going to be for grand theft cucumber.
Gary seems like a sweet man. I feel so sorry for his lost. His dad never deserved that.
Yeah that was fucced up I just wish he would have let him go and knew better nobody’s life is worth materialistic sht .
I can't even imagine what they have gone through 💔
Such pathetic platitudes are nauseating.
The politicians and police should be held accountable
@@samuelponce1 "knew better", I will never fault an individual for intervening into an act of wrong doing but I would rather fault the individual or individuals doing the wrong thing when they should have been the ones who "knew better".
Harsher punishments and now they are even locking up laundry soap because of all this crap !! 🤬🤬
That one blonde girl who physically helped defend her family's jewelry store came with the claws out. If I was her daddy I'd be so proud of her right now.
Usually (not generalizing, I only want to say I've seen too many) blondes sympathizing with scum. I almost never hit a street without seeing one of those chemicals- addicted blondes hanging around with a dealer or a blm looter. Even if you watch tens of new un-blurred videos of these daily thefts, you'll find out who the people involved in these kinds of troubles are.
She’s lucky she didn’t get hurt or worse. I had a former boss chase a thief down the block . Even though my my boss was 6ft 5 ( almost 2 meters) I asked him
If he was f***ing crazy! The store was located near a high crime area.
@@dancingnature You guys see my previos reply? Sometimes they disappear and TH-cam doen't let you know. I see it, I see "2 replies" (including the one that is mine) and can actually read them but maybe you see "replies" and can only read one (yours).

This is what the Navajo, Cherokee, Apache, Mohawk, Blackfoot, Creek, Algonquin and Yamasee probably said in the 16th and 17th century regarding the actions of Pilgrims, Spaniards, Puritans and Quakers. What goes around comes around.
@@seanin1990 yeah too bad they had inferior military power. History written by the Victor and all that jazz
@@seanin1990 oh you mean so called natives who actually stole that land from the true natives, you mean when the native tribes were slaughtering each other before anyone landed from Europe, you mean when native tribes would seek out the settlers and use them to fight other tribes which benefited both. History goes back further than what you make out you should study it.
When there are no consequence, it will keep happening. Need to have harsh punishment
MURIKAN 🇺🇲🇺🇲 CITIES are BROKE. They have no money 💰💵💵 to persecute and keep criminals locked up. Meanwhile MAYORS and top city officials overpay themselves with the average amount of $250k -$300k.
How can Cities punish criminals when they don't have money? This is why cities are jaxing up Property TAXES. The Washington DC fire department is suing WASHINGTON DC because City officials have started taking money from their pension. The Mayor of Washington DC has announced they are putting up more speed cameras to balance the budget punishing hapless motorists. The ticket is like $200 dollars. People have stopped visiting DC. City officials are crying 😭😭😭 because people don't like to visit DC. 😭😭😭
@@wajutiem08 Also last year the city council board pass a bill on point system for traffic cameras. I think definitely a lot of tourists will avoid visiting DC along with other problems here.
I hope u vote for trump
I mean I’m not scared to simply ask for a receipt. But now I guess I would be afraid.
I work retail.
It is not safe anymore.
Stores allow known shoplifters to continue to come in the stores and steal every day.
I believe you should put only I of high theft items on the sales floor the rest stay in the stockroom when a customer asks for one you go get it and take it to the cashier.
think only the boxes should be on display and if they want to buy it take the money first then come out with the paid item..
That's a good idea. Worked for Blockbuster in the day.
I'm senior, and it's gotten so bad I'm afraid to leave the house. I really only go to the grocery store now. What a world we're living in!
I'm so sorry 😢Be safe ✌️❤️
You are not alone my friend. I am living the same way. I find myself getting out through utube etc. videos so I don't feel so shut in. Wishing you Peace & Love. Stay Safe ❤☮️🇺🇸
If I lived by you I would help you out and take you anywhere you want to go
Yah. Me too. Getting old takes guts. But these days I don't feel the need to buy much.
After retiring I worked for three years part time at Home Depot. We saw this all the time. I got so tired of it I re-retired in August 2019 -- just in time it turned out.
I blame 60 years of congressional incompetence. But not just them, we got off the right track with marketing supported TV & Radio.
We invented 'make-work' jobs, told folks to build their lives on being productive, then sold those jobs . . . somewhere else.
The same marketeers sold us lame office-holders. They sold us distorted images and lifestyles. They sold us unhealthy self-images.
They still sell us fear.
And we, fools, bought it. Then we handed it off to our children.
I am thinking that the only way out is to sur-tax all media that is not Subscriber Fee Paid services [ besides, imagine the public debt we could get past with revenue like that].
Carry a pistol and don’t rely on anyone to protect you but you!
I was in a store when this happened. One of the black woman in the group that was stealing assaulted a poor elderly lady that was just standing by not doing anything. To witness that made my blood boil.
Disgusting
She was white. That is aggressive.
You should forgive her because she is black. She came from a tough environment and thats all she knows. 🤮 I cringed typing that.
It made your blood boil and yet you did nothing?
@@dr.loomis4221 I was about to make a similar comment.
Here in the UK we have Argos stores, all items are featured in a catalogue. You select the item you want then pay for it, then the warehouse staff collect it and give it to you. Shoppers can't enter the warehouse so there's no way to shoplift. All retailers will have to adopt this model at the rate things are going
Yeah not here
One store had this model in the 80s in the USA. It was named Service Merchandise. They went out of business decades ago. But it was exactly what you said. Had many locations all over the country too. It just needs to be brought back.
Used to have similar store where I lived in Maine, USA
Yeah because you are overran by somali migrants. The UK is falling apart. Enjoy getting knifed hy Ngubu on the way home from your football game
Seems kinda pointless for home improvement stores. Most of the time when I’m going to the Home Depot, im covered in project detritus, I’m bringing the old item with me for comparison and I’m trying to get in and out and back on my project as fast as possible. That’s why brick and mortar is the way to go for home improvement, you don’t need to look through an online catalog and hope you got the right thing. Going down the isle, finding the correct part and getting out of there asap is huge. Adding a middleman who isn’t invested in your project ,and who might grab the wrong part or take forever doesn’t seem efficient when your plumbing has broken or your roof is leaking or your electrical doesn’t work. Also contractors who shop at home improvement centers would loose money for the same reasons
5:40 Policies that force employees to do NOTHING is part of what led to this tish in the first place! Remember the quote, "All it takes for evil to win is for good men to do nothing."
The politicians who have relaxed the laws on crimes such as these, should be held accountable for the acts they are complicit in. They should be personally charged for each event with both fines and incarceration.
Let's be fair, if we want Black shoplifters to go to jail, we must also pay Black people for their losses due to whites stealing their land and burning down Black towns! If you are against reparations, then you are saying it's ok to steal, just not from white people, right?
They are actively encouraging chaos with mass TV coverage. I believe this is what the agenda wants..
Sad when they relax the laws but what would you do if I told you I had my mother frivolously steal my entire inheritance from my first dad and my second dad Tommy who recently passed away from cancer. And I'm a disabled veteran ex Army Ranger and she was charged vehicular manslaughter for my father's death and my mother her attorney and the judge never met me at all or appointed legal counsel to represent me in court at all and you want to know where I was at the time in the hospital after being blown up in Afghanistan
The minute these liberals started closing the prisons, we knew this sht was gonna start happening, how are these ppl so fkn dumb!
once again your kids
I find it funny that they say "The well being of our employees and customers are our main concern", but when it comes down to it, they recoup their losses by pushing it on to the customers with increased prices and likely on to employees by messing with pay rates and benefits.
yep they just dont want a lawsuit. But the real evil ones are the government.
Vigilantism should be The People's FIRST resort, not the LAST. That corporate cuck's Neville Chamberlain-style appeasement approach is a policy for weaklings. Weakness of will is the problem, not the solution. The enemies of civilization can't be bargained with or reasoned with. They should be buried in a nameless grave. Ave vindicta!
Exactly! It isn't like they eat the costs associated with letting people walk out with the goods.
apart from costs, they ultimately put employees and customers at more risk by allowing this
gangsters robbing gangsters. what's the world coming to? the corporate gangsters wear suits and live in luxury and the other gangsters wear hoods and live mostly live in ghettos.
isn't being a hooded, cowardly gangster cool? aren't guns fun? thanks rap for promoting this crap over the last 30 years. black on black crime has skyrocketed, blacks often live in daily terror as gangs roam their neighborhoods brutalize their neighbors over "territory" and control. meanwhile rappers continue to glamorize this culture of terror, this thug mentality, teaching young men that pursuing wealth at all costs, ridiculous posturing and violence is what being a man is all about.
and of course the wonderful, clueless left applauds rap for it. can't criticize black gangsters and predators. that's racist.
meanwhile the corporate gangsters underpay and abuse their employees and ovcercharge and abuse their customers. they pass their losses onto society while they increase their CEO million dollar salaries. isn't being a gangster in a $5000 suit cool? and, of course, the wonderful, clueless right says we can't criticize corporate thugs. its anti-capitalist.
in a world gone mad sanity is rejected and demonized. we're a nation of fools ruled by gangsters and it ain't getting any better.
There used to be a retail chain in our area called Service Merchandise. All items were on display, with a card in front of them. You pulled the card for the item you wanted, took it to the cashier and paid for it, then it would come down a conveyor belt and you could then collect it and leave. As long as companies refuse to hire proper security, I can't see any other retail business model that can remain profitable if this climate.
This is exactly what I recommend to my district manager at Home Depot during a staff meeting. They all laughed at me like it was a stupid idea. Home Depot deserves what they get.
This was in Florida up until 1992 maybe. Yes, great store and SMerch had everything. Those good days are gone forever.
@@laurenarndt464 district managers dont listen to the associates that actually work. spent 9 years at the prodesk
@@mikeoxlong1266 Yes, good ol' prodesk. The sexist area where management always had to have good looking cashiers for contractor's eye candy. That's fact..not my opinion.
@@laurenarndt464 not at my store. so much for your fact
As an "impulse" shopper I'm extremely irritated by the Costa Rican answer to this theft problem; you wait at the counter and ask someone to go retrieve your product. You are virtually never left alone in a hardware store there.
Wild. The authorities set this up by being too lenient on criminals. It’s scary.
Activist DAs
Democrat ran jurisdictions. How you vote has consequences.
Yes something is going on. I am glad the title revealed how it is organized. Just like me and others were talking about when there was a story a month ago about 100 or so people hitting up a gas station in Chicago.
Why would so many people go to a GAS station? Those are tiny places so what was there that they were really after?
What I also see is that they use black and brown kids for this, but its a cover. A cover in that everyone will just shrug it off as "those wild black and brown kids. They are wild animals. You know how those people are" kind of talk and won't look deeper into it. It does make sense, imo, that it is authorities AND crime organizations behind this and just use the unfortunate common gang and violence that happens in this city, and others, to "cover their tracks" as they do what they do.
Defunding the police.
But if it's Trump's violence, it's all good
I feel the most for the workers bc they are being put in danger. The law doesn’t care and neither do corps. the hardworking person gets the short end of the stick like always 🙄
Criminals have more rights! Yet we get tickets over a seatbelt.
with the amount of money they are claiming they are losing they can hire an armed guard
@mr.erikchun5863 it's called border patrol. But why even have it? They are getting huge kick backs or something. Why would there be no pressure on things that clearly need it. They literally are saying f you usa. The dude even said when he almost tripped, looked down amd said it's black, then laughed?? Dude isn't ok.
Until police are allowed to arrest black criminals and stop using racism as an excuse! Also stop protecting criminals if they get hurt or killed.
And it's going to get worse with the illegal immigrants that came across the border.
Its what you voted for.
I work at a Home Depot in small rural area. We've had to lock up our power tools, then later our wire. We also have to walk up the products to the cash registers now because of these thefts. I see signs of small petty thefts all the time. It's so disheartening because 99% of our cutomers are great people.
Idk what rural area you are in, but here in Eastern KY, if anyone tries to pull some stunts like that, they will do a county uear for the first offense, and be sent to prison for the second. Needless to say, theft is a rare occurrence, and when it does happen, they are usually caught. May I ask, is it a Democrat State that you live in? 🤔
@@CarlAquaForce same here in eastern nc...you go to jail, they ain't playin...
Our police do not patrol our community and have refused to respond when called.
Yeah and then guys like me get harrased and watched all the time when I am shopping with money and I get stalked and feel like I cant even go in a store so it works both ways.
Yeah, I'll call BS. I don't know any rural area where a band of thugs are permitted to run in a grab whatever they can carry and then walk out. Good luck with that. Home D. or Tractor Supply in the country aint no LuLuLemon.
It's not just retail theft that's a problem. I run a business where break ins and trespassing are never charged. I knew I was in trouble when cops told me they've been instructed to not arrest anyone.
Wow,,that's crazzy
They are instructed not to arrest or prosecute so they can then claim look how our crime numbers have fallen. When in reality they are worse than ever just not being recorded.
This is what happens when you live in a area where there's no consequences for actions
I think they mentioned that this was a national trend.
Live in AN*
@@JudgeDreddMegaCityOne he also said that there are some states who do not take it seriously, which is obviously the case, ergo this is what happens when there are no consequences for your actions
@@JudgeDreddMegaCityOneMore like a Blue state trend.
@@JudgeDreddMegaCityOne Yes But the trends are all in the democrat run cites. If you look up the governors, the DA's and the judges in those cites, They are all liberal democrats.

In CA, you can steal up to $1000 and not get arrested. In Houston, Chicago, NY, Oregon, and Washington, You MIGHT get arrested but charges usually dropped.
The worst part is that eventually the store will just close. All of the employees will loose their jobs. And the community will loose a resource.
That's when the thug gangs will start to commit home invasions on the innocent common homeowner.

Seriously💯 it's horrible.. humanity doesn't care about morality anymore. I'm so sick of it.
You tube protects criminals and violence.
Society is a curse on society I’m not saying people who steal have a completely valid reason but the world is falling apart people do what they feel like they have to do to survive the morals of the country are not focused on equality and fairness or honesty so why should citizen adhere to societal morals???
BLM is also responsible for this!
The problem is with these big businesses and store owners creating these stupid policies preventing store employees from stopping thieves. These businesses are making a killing through insurance. If they were really concerned about the well being of their employees and customers then they would spend the money to hire more security detail. If they had more security presence in the store thieves would be scared to attempt any theft.
Guarded entrance and exit gates, where you show receipts. Would been a hassle to shoplifters. As a customer I would not mind
Zero tolerance for Lululemon employees?? They're fired for chasing thieves,thats total bullsh*t!!! My heart breaks for the elderly man who was taken to soon!!!
I know right?!
I wouldn’t buy another item from lululemon after learning their policy on theft and how they fired their employees for trying to help. BOYCOTT this worthless company.
Trying to figure who buys s*it like that anyways, let alone steal it? I'm sick of living here....
Are you sure you won't your employees catching assault charges, possibly murder, in the name of your business. It's practical to let them go
@@alicekramden8640 yea... That's so messed tfu what happened to the elderly dude. Where the hell was the security????? 😤
That old man made me cry🥴 I think of his son.
😢
If that would have been my dad I would have been devastated.
@Rick James If you check the video around the 7:15 mark you'll see they caught him, hopefully he'll get a full sentence
If that had been my dad, they would have needed to just go ahead and lock me up.
So sad about that elderly man who was pushed. Unfortunately, this exactly why store employees should just stand down as resisting could put themselves at risk as well as the customers as some of these individuals may have weapons as well or become violent. Not worth risking your life for something the store insures anyway and something that you don't even own. This happened to me at Macy's when I used to work there 18 years ago when I was still in college. Ten people made a grab and snatch and then made a mad dash for the exit with all the merchandise they could carry. One of them had a jacket with one hand in it and our loss prevention team determined he had a gun. We just watched them run without interfering for fear of them becoming violent with store employees or customers.
@@pavelromanenko3718The old man was not resisting. He was just standing by the side.
My heart goes out to the man who lost his dad❤ made my heart hurt I just.can't imagine losing your dad over powerwashers!!!
These people are scumbags, the one who is responsible for the death of the older man should receive the death penalty.
It wasn’t the power washers fault it was the fault of the animal without training who pushed him
@prettyinpink3168 duhhh! I'm not blaming an inanimate object for that poor guys murder! Only a troll would point that out!
killed by a savage black
If I worked for any of these companies, and they had a zero tolerance on not stopping the thieves, you do not have to worry about me. My life is too precious. I have children, husband, parents, siblings, and other people who love me and need me to come home at the end of the night. God said vengeance is his.
I love how they dance around the issue. Why are they doing it, cause there are NO consequences!
Good point
They REFUSE to take accountability
Because BLM
It's a failure of the education system that is creating this culture in the US. Not to mention that millionaires and billionaires are getting tax breaks to the point of not having to pay taxes while poor people are getting robbed left and right by the government in all sorts of different ways. It's all by design, though. Gotta have criminals in order to get rich off the tax payers back to pay for more prisons. Ronald Reagan is a major reason for most of the US problems.
because prices are too high
Lululemon basically asking "Hey guys, come and rob us, we put in place zero-tolerance rules for employees to ban them from interfering with your thefts and will even fire them if they ask you to stop".
The people doing these crimes need to actually be held accountable and pay a real price for what they are doing to all of us.
The future of America IS NOT BLACK CULTURE 🤣🤣
good luck with liberals changing the laws in America
What about all the injustice the people of America have to put up with because of corporate greed?

I feel horrible for the people who were terminated because they responded. I am distraught over families losses but I am also very angry that retail stores are doing nothing to break the crime process from the source instead homeless and indigent families are being targeted.
This is just CRAZY! What is wrong with US. In my 20’s I WAS A STORE DETECTIVE FOR A HIGH END STORE. Then it was LOSS PREVENTION.
Criminals took shopping bags of expensive clothes daily. We were paid to STOP IT. But the COURTS ONLY CHARGED THESE FOOLS $27.50 fine. 😠 It was a waste of time to arrest them. It was always the same people stealing. 🥺 So i would stand out and just watch them. Back then they would leave the store.
All these asians constantly committing crimes...er wait...
Part of the problem is that criminals have rights too. If a criminal becomes severely injured, the store loses more than the value of that power tool.
Activist judges and DAs. So many times, these criminals are released back out onto the streets within the hour. No way I'd ever live in a city here in the States.
Liberals only care about the individual rights including the criminal but what about the society as a whole? Loosing sense of security and safety as a society is surely a greater evil than punishing the criminals to deter others who may incline to commit the same crime.
@@resipsa5232 Well, Kyle Rittenhouse was allowed to commit crimes and defend himself, so there is a legal precedent behind it.

The answer is simple: death penalty. Post guards at retail with instructions to detain or fire if necessary.

Not only do thieves need to be stopped but when there is a demand, it will never be stopped.
Years ago, about 45 to be exact, I was working at a now out of business store called Gold Circle. It was a full time job while I was in college. Then, when a thief was being chased by store security, they announced a code over the PA and all of us associates would sprint out of the store and tackle the shop lifter. Boy, that would not fly today but I'll say very few thieves got away..
I remember Gold Circle....
Too many potential lawsuits for that to ever fly today
Now you have stupid ass woke politicians that want people to be put in jail for vigilante justice. And judges will let stupid ass thieves to sue you for injury because you didn't allow them to get away with stealing merchandise.
We did the same thing at the bay stores
Back then fewer criminals were armed
At Lululemon, our people's safety is our number one priority, and nothing makes our employees safer than depriving them of their jobs and potentially making them hungry and homeless.
"Safe by making them hungry and homeless"???
You know they really care about the safety of customers by letting people robbed when no consequence forever
You should wake up and smell the Civilization built on genocide and slavery.

That's the fate of the country that have more mercy on criminals than law abiding citizens.
“Authorities say the case is pending” that is the exact reason why this IS happening!

So you have seen who is looking at your receipts and you'd expect them to challenge someone with carts full of stolen goods? Not hardly. These large retailers need to invest in real enforcement, BUT that can be a slippery slope too. The laws against shop lifting and theft need to be changed to have the teeth to prosecute.
There is a possibility that they're being told by Walmart's AP Unit not to bother the person walking out because they are aware of the situation. At the end of the day Receipt Checkers are a mere deterrent, the AP Unit is the ones that are going to directly handle shoplifting. Tons of reasons (not known to the public) as to why that person could've been allowed to just walk out.

Crazy, they want workers earning a hourly wage to not just to do their job but to also put their lives on the front. No way that's gonna happen. It's better getting fired. Might as well pay these workers another extra wage as hired security guards if they want cashiers to protect anything.
I notice they completely ignore the fact that the main issue is judges and prosecutors in CA don’t enforce the law anymore, effectively legalizing theft.
The main issue is a populace which adores ghetto people so much they'll excuse every crime and dysfunction. Every theft, every rape every murder every carjacking is explained away as the fault of someone else, or some system.

I was in a large brand retail store last year where an employee was telling me about recent gang thefts there and how they weren’t allowed to try to stop them. No wonder they keep coming back. A few concealed carries in the store and this would stop real fast.
why have store security if they are not allowed to stop anyone????????????
I stay in a small town out in the country. I went to a Walmart in Houston TX for Lithium grease, a few LED bulbs for my semi, and a cell phone holder for the windshield. Everything was locked away in cages. I was scratching my head until the store manager gave me the run down as to why. I told him this is the first time seeing this. This is terrible, I said. It sucked because HONEST shoppers are being punished for it as well.
That piece of filth who killed the old man is the type of "person" I would love to see get thrown into a group of hungry hyenas
I have been a retail worker for years, it is a higher up/CEO problem. You need to hold people responsible, add security!!! like target. I'm tired of us having to "say no we wont stop thefts because we have no security". At this point all big retailers NEED security for their good and your dang staff.

My partner worked retail, both grocery and Lowes, and the theft is rampant in any of the businesses he worked. Literally people stealing all day long and coming back there next day to steal more. I'd visit, and saw people doing it right in front of me, zero care as they walk out the door with a cart load of merchandise. The employees are powerless and yet they are the ones at risk the most. It's time that these stores pay for armed security or to close shop, because the workers making barely minimum wage are at risk every single day.
How about when the buzzers go off the doors lock ?
So what happens if people DEFEND themselves from security?
Many black and Hispanic people have built their houses from stolen building material from Lowes and Home Depot.
I propose we put former military personnel in grocery stores as the employees, arm them, and make a stand once and for all!!
Jk of course 😂
I love how it’s “keeping track of shoppers” instead of criminals…
They have to keep track of everyone entering the store. Some are criminals, most are not. They are viewed as shoppers until they are not.
Yeah, that’s the point.
When the glasses broke for them to run in a gate should fall down and lock them in😂
It's almost like having no repercussions is making people think they can get away with stuff.....
and turns out they can. And the law-abiding citizens are footing the bill with price hikes to compensate. The elite don't care because they have more money than they need.
