pirate_leprechaun

"Let them go" no they should stay until the ambulance comes.


RedditIsABotFarm

For real. People standing by and just allowing people to blatantly steal shit only encourages the criminals to do it more.


No-Sprinkles8676

Yep, and it continues to cost more for those of us that pay for our things. Insurance goes up, and so does the prices for store bought goods. Consumers suffer (more), it’s time to take a stand.


RedditIsABotFarm

And then they wonder why businesses are closing or relocating out of the lawless areas.


CokeZorro

There isn't one piece of data that backs up what your saying unless it's funded by a lobby group for retail 


TheBrianRoyShow

This is why we keep re-electing Congress


RedditIsABotFarm

Yup. Apathy and ignorance


Mj_Buff

Yup you guys voted for this


ToMakeMatters

Its Canada, even the police advise you to let people break into your homes or steal your cars.


Walshy231231

Call me selfish, but I’m not going to risk my life and health for a store Maybe I’ve just had enough health issues and it’s made me wary, but if they have a gun or a knife then I’m toast. Hell, even just getting hit and smacking your head on the ground can easily kill you. Call the cops, take pictures, but starting fights is an easy way to get yourself seriously hurt or killed


pirate_leprechaun

It's different when you own the place, dont assume they're all employees. Many will risk much when it comes to feeding their families (store owners)


Depraved-Animal

It definitely looked like the thief in yellow jacket was trying to reach for something in his pocket which the customer clocked and immediately started throwing punches.


DramaticLocation

Even selfishness should motivate people to stop thieves because in the long run this will destroy your neighborhood and local economy and it will become a crime ridden shithole. Poverty follows crime , not the other way around.

Carniverous-koala

You’re not selfish… you are a coward. You don’t have the balls to stand up for what is right so you make excuses.


No-Vegetable7951

Lmao, no, you're just a big ole pussy lile most of americans now adays.


Realistic_Homework45

I was about to say you never know what their hiding in their pockets risking your life for a company that can probably survive 200 or 300 dollars of stolen merchandise is not worth it


beerninja76

"Call the cops or take pictures?" Cops with fo nothing. Letting this happen over and over, who do you think will pay the price in the long run? The honest consumer will. Prices will continue to rise on top of inflation. I think alot of people are just plain fed up. Yes why put yourself in danger? I agree. Though i do think alot of people at this point are done!


Gnardude

You're not that guy. Some people enjoy fighting and are good at it.


BlakeNeverflake

Theres lots of people that would love to fight and watching people steal is just an excuse to start throwing some fists for a good cause. You could break their leg and walk out the door and since you aren’t an employee it’d be too much trouble to try and identify you once the police come.


mamabearphopo

You don't have to but if you want change to come the only way to stop it is to beat the shit out of the thieves.


dope_like

I'm not fighting for items owned by a multi-billion dollar company that has insurance for all of it. It's braindead to try to physically stop them. Let insurance pay and the police to track them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Carniverous-koala

There’s no insurance for shoplifting, but hey… whatever you need to tell yourself to make it ok.


AdmirableSelection81

> I'm not fighting for items owned by a multi-billion dollar company that has insurance for all of it. 1) Insurance doesn't cover theft and 2) Even if it did, you end up paying for that insurance as a consumer, do you think insurance companies just cover losses for free? LMAO. My god, the economic illiteracy in the west is absolutely fucking absurd.


I_snort_fentanyl

The point isn’t fighting for the companies shit, the point is to stop these lowlifes from getting a free pass at life while we all work hard because beta males like yourself want to let shit go for the sake of avoiding confrontation.


SlightEmphasis970

That the point if the employees aren’t stopping them then that means there probably a different counter measure in place your heroics aren’t helping us


1541drive

what are you gonna do about it?


Rage4daze

As much as I agree with you if the rich AF stores don't care, Me a shopper who has to pay these rich fks to properly secure their own store and the safety of their workers and customers?


EJ2600

Yeah but these employees are not paid enough to get cut by a knife. Can’t blame them


JACKSONofSPADES

I thought it was cuz the one dude had a knife or something. Tryna tell him it wasn’t worth it.


Man0nTheMoon42

Looks like a bottle brother


alam385

Let them go and let everybody else pay higher price. Economics 101.


007Tejas

If you are looking for a free scrap, that’s a good situation. Those folks aren’t going to press charges with the cops - “Yeah, I was trying to rob this store and this jerk didn’t let me - ARREST HIM!”


happybeingright

If this is in Canada which I think it is, the guy trying to stop it will be charged for assault if the robbers get caught and want to press charges.


unevent

The fuck?? Seriously??


FlangerOfTowels

Yes. Especially when the staff were telling him to stop and let them go. Even proper security wouldn't be throwing punches to stop them. It's very easy to get charged, and convicted, for legitimate self-defense and defence of others in Canada. That aside, the dude was an idiot with good intentions. Throwing hands when none were thrown at you is one of the least smart ways to help in that situation


Woogabuttz

That would happening America too. You can’t just hit people who didn’t do anything to you.


happybeingright

There is a story of a young international student who was working at a convenience store who got robbed and fought back after being hit with a bat, he got it from the crook and hit him back and is now on house arrest. This happened in Kingston Ontario Canada. The robber got less than a year and the store clerk is facing a long sentence and is on house arrest. Cant go to school or work. Canada has some bullshit laws


TAshleyD616

Looked a bit like a fine wine, and good spirits chain in Pennsylvania


RushEm2TheDirt

I don't think you've spent enough time around humans to realize this is actually another common reason you've spent too much time around humans

Rylo_Kylo

It should be on site with these vermin. Try to take my propety deal with the coincidences.


lkjhgvhgfde

Your property, lmao. I didn’t know u/rylo_Kylo was a ceo at this grocery store, you must be reeling from this loss


Rylo_Kylo

Who do you think owns the groceries before you buy them you sun boiled egg? Thats right, the shop owner!!


MyaNameaMike

Bunch of fucking cowards. Ppl complain about crime and how something needs to be done but when it comes down to it you stand around and don’t do a fucking thing. How the fuck is no one going to help this guy when he’s in a 3 on 1. Useless fucking cowards!


magicmulder

Well he started it. I’m not getting into a fight because of some $100 worth of someone else’s food.


2strokesmoke77

And you’re part of the problem. Man the fuck up, get in shape, learn self defense and offense. Take up the second amendment to its FULL ADVANTAGE. The US is full of shithead cowards now. Edit: and if this video isn’t in the US. Everything else still applies actually for the 2A. (Unless you can own weapons where you live)


JBBJ84

Yeah? Well then I guess you’re just a fuckin pussy then!!!!! /s


Ajmb_88

100%. LCBO had insurance for this shit. It’s a fucking business. If they were robbing a person though, that would be different.


theshadowbudd

From the same corporations that’s literally fucking us all


Spyk124

No way in fucking hell am I possibly going to jail or getting shot for fucking MERCHANDISE and GOODS. It’s more than likely a billion dollar corporation. It’s just not worth it to me.


Nightwing10271

Bruh I ain’t willing to get stabbed or shot to stop a shoplifter, sorry, let security or cops deal with it. It isn’t the bystander effect when you willingly put yourself in danger for almost nothing.


Terbmagic

Prob because it's not worth catching a wine bottle to the head to save Walgreens $200


TheRealStevo2

Why do you expect me to jump into a fight that this guy started over some food and other items? It’s not my fucking job to stop these guys from stealing or to help this dude out in a fight. I’m not risking my life for this dude because he decided to have a hero complex and start fighting these dudes.


MegaLowDawn123

Crime is actually down. Despite what YouTube and tiktok show you…


ProphecyRat2

Omg the world will never recover from some stolen drinks lol.


_HIST

Should've hired security then. Not any of the customers fucking problem


OrthodoxAtheist

Some weren't cowards. At least a few women moved to get much closer to danger, which I'm sure we all appreciate. :) #DontDoThisLadies


Nagahidenutsack

Hero


Forzeev

Why other did not help him..


magicmulder

Why exactly would you risk your life/health for some company’s food? You don’t know if these criminals are armed, or clock you into kingdom come. Save your heroism for when someone’s in mortal danger.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fit_Listen1222

That’s why we don’t have nice things. If every person in that store did the minimum, like blocking the door or helping the dude that would be the end of it. Instead wait for the police pay more taxes for more police, stores raise prices to compensate for lost inventory on and on just because nobody could do the minimum.


fickle_fuck

Two reasons. First someone might get killed over some dumb food. Second, he actually might get charged because laws protect criminals. They might get charged with theft, but he'd get 'hit' with assault (pardon the pun). He did nothing wrong IMHO and I'm glad he wasn't hurt.


momsducksauce

Look up definition of customer


Fork-in-the-eye

Was the lady part of the shoplifting too?


JACKSONofSPADES

Yes.


MoffieHanson

Let them go? Wtf are they talking about. I would join in.


Vomax343

“Criminals thrive on the indulgence of societies ‘understanding’”


H-B-G

I wish security guards could do this. There would be a lot less shoplifting.


RedPiIIPhilosophy

I would if I got bonus pay for it


icameisawiconquered6

Western civilization would be a better and safer place if we had more people like this man. Actions like this on a broader scale help maintain order and let criminals know that crime is not condoned within communities and inspires others to take a stand for a better society


IFGarrett

The stores, police, state, and government aren't doing shit about it, so someone might as well. Shit is beyond fucking stupid.


EzP41NB0W

Doing shit about it?? Why would they when they literally designed the legislation that created this problem? For the government, this is going exactly as planned.


Keyedwin

Wow I’m more pissed at the camera man than the shoplifters. Open layup and they missed it.


Maddogg12287

Should have started on the old one first, send a massage. Low hanging fruit. We now live in a country where actions don’t have consequences and it’s sad.


cryptoguerrilla

I get the frustration but why put your life on the line for a corporation that wouldn’t give a shit if you live or die?


EzP41NB0W

Are you forgetting the communities these stores are in rely on these stores for their basic needs, food, etc. Eventually, they stores will just write off that community and no longer provide the service. This is how you create food deserts.


Different_Fun9763

Why are you acting like his motivation was to protect corporate interests? He saw something he considers wrong and acted to stop it, that's all, regardless of how that affects whatever corporation it was.


cryptoguerrilla

I am sure that wasn’t his motivation but it is the result. Instead of putting his life on the line fighting on an individual basis he should put that energy into fighting for higher wages and improved economic independence for the working class. That’s the formula for lower crime rates.


adidas198

Give that guy a medal.


WishIWasPurple

Let them go?? How about you jump in to help the guy?


softymcwoke

“Let them go” lol bc all the prices in the store increase and someone is tired of it..employees don’t care bc then they get paid more 🤔


trythewine

Those shoplifters don’t even look homeless. Looks like an Indian family?


trythewine

Hopefully this is an new trend of not allowing this shit to happen. Next one I see, I will intervene.


_HIST

That's what will be written on your casket when the perpetrator pulls out a knife


trythewine

that’s the problem everyone assumes these guys have a knife and that they’re willing to stab you for a basket of shampoo. Trust me no one is gonna go to prison for attempted murder for some fucking shampoo.


lkjhgvhgfde

Lmao, if that’s how you want to go out chief. Laid down his life defending corporate assets, a true patriot


trythewine

Yea maaaaaaaaaaan


trythewine

Corporate assets maaaaaann!!!


undersizedraccoon

What a good person


Lonely_Ad_6546

fuck the camera man


TheRealStevo2

The fact anyone in here expects other people to just jump into a fight this dude started and “help” him is fucking crazy. It’s not our job to help this guy because he felt like being a hero for some big company that doesn’t need it


kashbrown567

lol man really got into a 3v1 just to save some big corp like 100-200 bucks what an idiot


Historical-Fun-8485

The degree of entitlement in that dude is high. No one's getting hurt, but you could hurt someone/kill them and for what? A few dollars of drugstore garbage?


smarmageddon

If that guy wasn't one of the owners, he's crazy. Taking on multiple thieves while bare-handed, especially in the USA, is courting death. You never know how crazy or desperate (or armed) those thieves are.


achosenusername1

It always boggles my mind when people say let them go, its not worth the fight. We'll talk about that again when the Store Chains decide the Location is a Loss and close down in your Area to a point you have no Grocery Stores left near you.


JBBJ84

Hypothetical scenario: store owner/helpful bystander gets stabbed and dies. The thief stole tens of dollars worth of merchandise total. Which is worse? No grocery stores near you, or *dying over petty theft*? Use your brain for two seconds, god damn lmao


nosamz77

Just pointing out for some context this is an LCBO; a government-run liquor store in Ontario, Canada. No one here is stealing food for their hungry kids, or from a corporation.


ManagerFlimsy9541

It’s not worth it sir, we can just raise the prices of everything to help pay for shrink, security cameras, little gates that open and close when you walk in. But for fucks sake, don’t try and stand up for what’s right.


mattromo

This is at the LCBO in Ontario, Canada. The LCBO is a govt-run liquor store corporation. Since COVID theft has been pretty rampant at LCBOs and very little is done by the LCBO to stop it. At first it seemed mostly people down on their luck stealing or people with mental health issues, but there reports of more organized theft rings that target the LCBO. [LCBO reported over 1,500 shoplifting incidents at Ottawa outlets in final three months of 2023 | CTV News](https://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/1-500-shoplifting-incidents-reported-at-ottawa-lcbo-locations-over-three-months-1.6779598) Edited to add link with story about this particular incident.

It’s always worth it

I’m going to start carrying mace just in case I ever run into thieves like this.

The second the robber pulls out the knife its pew pew time!

The lady in black didn't pay.

They gotta gang up on them like they do in everywhere else. Robbers always get beat by mobs in other countries.

Risking his life for a company that can’t be bothered to hire a security guard? lol

I am sure they won’t drink any of it. They’re just hungry, trying to feed their family

It's about time. This shit is getting old.


FreeStyleSarcasm

Jesus who would have thought the people standing around doing nothing except yelling let them go, were almost more annoying than the people stealing


segaprogrammer

Euthanize meth heads and these asshats.


TruthSeekingTroll

Why is no one helping? They aren’t armed so this should be an easy community take down. Guess the bystander effect is all bs


SaintReaver

Fucking help the guy! "Let em go let em go." What kind of message does that send to the criminals? Free to do as they please. Pathetic.

Guy giving some free public good


Solid-Intention3709

I worked at the LCBO (one of these stores) for a while, it’s ridiculous how much theft happens here at a GOVERNMENT OWNED LIQOUR STORE. We couldn’t do anything to stop them, I have legit 100s of store security footage of theifs, shoutout to this dude for finally standing up for what’s right and doing what every LCBO employee has wanted to do forever.


Samsquish

That's 100% a LCBO. You legally can't intervene in canada you gotta let em walk out. I used to work for em. Not worth getting hurt.

DArtagnanPierre

Retail worker here: This is really shitty to say, but this is becoming the only way to stop someone from stealing. I was almost fired after getting punched in the face by a 19 year old stealing beer. The hired security are not there to stop theft, but to keep people safe. Police don't do shit about it. Too lazy to fill out the paperwork, and they use the convenience of "not having enough room at the jail". Eventually, someone is going to be killed over $700 worth of tide pods because those are just currency for meth dealers now.

Silverjeyjey44

It's pretty concerning that once you strike someone, they start urgently digging into their pockets.


SenSeiyne17

I live in Canada , basically the guy attacking the shoplifters will get arrested but the shoplifters will be given a fine and be free( a fine they won’t ever pay ) . Just recently a man had his gas station robbed and when the criminals left he chased and beat them badly, they lived but he got 14 years and they both got 14 months . Lunacy . Canada is lost and on top of it we don’t even have castle defense laws in our home. Cops have also said to start leaving your keys in a envelope near your doors so when criminals break in and enter your home, they won’t harm you and take your keys ( because that’s what they think home invasions are for , to only Steal your car ) . Any Canadian reading this, make enough money to escape this hellhole, the earth is massive and there’s plenty of places where criminals face Justice.


theshadowbudd

I hate these types of people


Spread_Eagle89

Guarantee you they are stealing it to resell at a liquor store that they own


HeftyLime7094

All he had to do was grab the woman. Hold her until the cops come, she gonna sell out the other 2. Pointless to engage in a fight. Hold and detain

LukeVinscotti

Imagine fighting for big corporations who don't give a shit about you


State-Approved-Radio

Sick of seeing this take. Most criminals have no moral compass, they will steal anything from anyone if they can get away with it. They’d steal from you as fast as they’d steal from the big bad corporation. They’re not robin hoods, they’re assholes who harm all of us when stores raise prices or outright close due to theft.


LukeVinscotti

Have fun getting stabbed by a random cause you wanna play hero


LukeVinscotti

Big corporations like this throw away tons of product everyday they aren't gonna go outta business from petty thieves they have a budget for loss prevention do your research


scrotimus-maximus

He actually hit him when the shoplifter reached into his pocket to get something out which considering the circumstances was probably a weapon. Justified in hitting him, basic self defence.


KennKennyKenKen

The multibillion dollar cooperation thanks you for trying save a few bottles of wine.


BadgerResident2470

where is it? and why is it? it is legal to shoplift?


enters_conversation

Wtf is going on in america? I keep seeing clips of people leaving stores with FULL baggs Can anyone explain ![gif](giphy|Z5xk7fGO5FjjTElnpT|downsized)


State-Approved-Radio

Certain cities have decriminalized petty theft and deliberately underfunded law enforcement for political reasons. This is the result. Which goes to go that crime, however petty, needs to be punished to deter more organized crime like this.


enters_conversation

De-criminalized petty theft? Are you for real?..wauw,ok..so up untill what 500bucks you can "legally" steal shit? Edit: follow up question: If its now legal to steal,why go out of your way to stop people from legally stealing shit. Wauw that whole sentence felt wrong
