    Pretty normal for Lowe’s and Home Depot to let people walk out with shit. Saw a guy walk out the front door with a bunch of electrical supplies and they didn’t say shit.

    They don’t care really, these are the same morons that will do returns on products from the other company that they don’t even carry.

    I saw a news report yesterday about this new trend for a mob of thugs to hit stores overwhelm "loss prevention team" and make out with hundreds if not thousands of dollars' worth of goods. The greatest part was the liberal news caster acting shocked about these young minority thugs doing this.....LOL I was thinking you ignorant dumb fucking cunt don't act shocked when you (MSM) help create these fucking animals and then want to act shocked when they act like animals.
     
    I went into walmart to get some cheap Valvoline 5w30. I could have walked out without paying. Cashier just left - maybe she was just hanging out at register. Ended up walking around store to get to self-service, then all the way back around.

    Go to Lowes, out of stock air filter (common as it's a 24x30) , go to get some chain cut and nobody there, anywhere to be found. Smash in grab...hell, may as well, nobody there to help you so help yourself.

    ps..I'd rather shop at Home Depot between the two big box "home stores (cannot call it a hardware store)" as they help; but not worth driving 20 miles for 9 dollars worth of chain...or is it?
     
    Best Buy taking it in the ass as well.

     
    I was at a home Depot in a more questionable neighborhood a couple weeks ago. All the tools were locked up, all the Romex wire was locked up. I guess that store got tired of the shit, and that's ok Texas. I can't imagine what CA is getting like when you can walk with $999 worth the stuff with no penalty. Wasn't it Walgreens or CVS that closed there bay area stores, just got tired of losing that much money. The employees I know at HD are told not to interfere with someone trying to steal, they will get fired for it. They don't want the liability for the employee or the fuckhead.

    One of these days these turds are going to run into a bunch of fed up Koreans. I hope there's video when they do.
     
    I'm gonna wager they aren't stealing hammers to build stuff.

    When I was in high school I worked for Kmart, I was the door greeter. One of my jobs was to work with the in house security and we would run out of the store and drag people back in to the security office. They’d either call the cops or retrieve the stollen goods and tell them never to come back. It was crazy what people would try to get away with. Times were different then, I understand in todays world why they let thief’s go as you might end up dead trying to stop them. Its a crazy messed up world, God help us.

    Outside of Divine intervention I do believe we have achieved 'FUBAR'.
     
    Daughter is a prosecutor and locked up a serial shoplifter prior to trial. Convicted felon and bench trial is Monday. She is hoping to get him sent away for 2 years. One of these assholes is going to get perforated when threatening a customer with a CCW.

    Both my sons used to work at Home Depot. Theft is a daily occurrence. They were instructed to look away and not engage. Basically theft is factored into profit margin. They don't even report it at store they worked at unless it was really bad.

    Shouldn't the News Crew and the family of the Security Guard be formally apologizing for not immediately cooperating or complying with "The Safari Principle"?

    Big corp can still take hits like that but not small mom and pop store.
     
    ^^^ see my signature.

    Pray for our country to return...
    It isn't going to return unless we drag it back kicking and screaming. It's never happened in the history of the world's democratic governments. The only way it ever happens is after a whole bunch of bloodshed and really bad times.... I believe there has been 21 previous democratic based systems and all have fallen along the same path. (It's been a while so I may be off with those numbers). The Tytler cycle continues
     
    In Ca its ok to steal as long as the stolen goods are 950.00 or less. Its not a serious crime thanks to Nancy pelosi's nephew Gavin.

    I went to Home Depot about a month ago to get a new Makita drill / impact driver / battery combo set. I asked the Home Depot employee to un lock one for me ( they are chained up). He said are you going to buy it now? I said yes. He un chained one and walked me to the cashier and waited in line with me . He wouldn't hand it to me until after I paid for it. The Home Depot I was in was in the gettto part of Santa ana. The employee told me its common for thieves to run out with stuff. He sees it every day.

    Id guess they grabbed high dollar drill etc. You know theyre not to work with, just resale to contractors.

    Smash-and-grab crew steals tools from Lakewood Home Depot

    16 hours ago — At about 7:45 p.m., eight or nine young men entered Home Depot, located at 5000 Hardwick St., and stole multiple hammers, crowbars, wrenches and ...
    “They had the sledgehammers ready to hit people who were trying to stop them,” Romo said.

    You can loot and burn but don't post mean memes on social media ,FBI is on it , WH is drafting extensive guidelines on why you are an extremist and potential terrorist .

    China realy needs to upp its game if they want to compete with US social score system.

    Stazi approves everyone is an informer.

    ''As the Intercept summarized, that report “suggests that police, social workers and educators rate individuals on a scale of one to five in categories such as ‘Expressions of Hopelessness, Futility,’ … and ‘Connection to Group Identity (Race, Nationality, Religion, Ethnicity)’ … to alert government officials to individuals at risk of turning to radical violence, and to families or communities at risk of incubating extremist ideologies.” The report recommended judging families by their level of “Parent-Child Bonding” and rating localities on the basis in part of the “presence of ideologues or recruiters.” Former FBI agent Mike German commented, “The idea that the federal government would encourage local police, teachers, medical, and social-service employees to rate the communities, individuals, and families they serve for their potential to become terrorists is abhorrent on its face.”
     
    Well when you say it’s OK to steal, or loot, or burn and vandalize.....
    how is anybody supposed to know when to stop?
     
    This 'mob' problem that ya'll are having down South there, is the same problem we started having almost 2 years ago up here in Canuckistania. Thing is though, the 'mob kids' were going and specifically raiding liquor stores. They would enter, take 'some-hundred-bottles' and be gone again within minutes.

    As well as smashing ALL KINDS OF PRODUCT. Add to that, the violence and/or threat of violence.

    Myself and My Lady, we were staunch advocates for "armed security" with the mandate of "shoot the thieving bastards". Instead, now every single liquor store (gov't run, up here) has a dual-door ENTRANCE policy, where one person enters, the door automatically closes behind them. Said person is 'interviewed' by a security guard (behind bulletproof glass) as well as ID'd and the ID is scanned into the computer. Then and only then, another door opens and you can enter the store.

    All done automatically/motorized type-of-thing.

    Isn't that SO MUCH BETTER NOW?

    Like I said,,,,, simply shoot the bastards. "So That Others May Learn...."

    That depends on what state you live: if you live in a blue state and someone followed your advice, you will get the Rittenhouse treatment and MAYBE an acquittal if you have video and right attorneys and judge.
     
    lakewood is not far from me, although i haven't been to that home depot.
     
    Also, be aware of your surroundings.

    I get what you're saying, in general. My point was essentially "global" or even "universal" as the way it should be.

    As it is, I live in a Province, not a state, so we are under a whole different "state of being" and Castro's Son is driving us straight into the ground. But that's another story....
