Walmart employees really didn't do anything wrong here. They recovered the merchandise, and alerted authorities. It's not clear if they were seeking justice, following company policy, or genuinely concerned that the lady was having problems, but calling a cop on a shoplifter is a common thing. It's not their fault Officer Friendly had a flashback to the Gulf War.
I think that's a sad commentary on our society. The employees could have assessed the situation, amd let the lady pay for her items and be on her way. People have minds, hearts, commom sense and agency. A better choice could have been made and we would not be having this conversation and Mrs. Garner would be uninjured.
We are on earth to protect one another.
Good plan. If they ever implement it I’ll always walk out without paying and, when confronted, pay. I’m sure I can get away with some stuff occasionally.
Is this sarcasm?
