Is that a gun in your pants, or are you just happy to see me?You can put a dremel in your baggy pants pocket.
A Bissel, not so much.

Whats worse, asking to get the cabinet unlocked, or driving there and finding out the last one was stolen 10 minutes ago?
I agree 100%, but there needs to be real consequences as well. I saw it first hand when i worked next to a Superstore. They would all take what they want and walk out. Nobody did anything and there were zero consequences for their blatant stealing. They would steal wine, then have a party in the parking lot and go back in for more. Nobody did anything.I'll understand if this gets nuked as too political, but if we really want to get tough on crime then we need to properly fund education, healthcare and psychiatric programs, social assistance programs, affordable housing, affordable food and a host of other things that make a society healthy. The majority of the people we are putting in jail are the ones who those systems failed. It's hard to get a job if you're homeless, hungry and sick.
I mostly agree. The staff at a lot of stores are told to not interfere in case of a theft. Too much liability all around if things go south.I agree 100%, but there needs to be real consequences as well. I saw it first hand when i worked next to a Superstore.

Retail theft causes price increases. Raising taxes and minimum wage raises retail prices. We are doing it wrong.

What consequences would work for a homeless, hungry 18 year old? One of my wife's friends was security director at the provincial jail. Every fall there would be a huge influx of new inmates on short term incarceration. It was called 2 hots and a cot. In other words, better to be in jail for the winter than homeless.
