  1. “While attempting the leave the store, loss prevention staff confronted the suspect, but he fled.”
    Only “confronted” him? It’s such a shame that dems have let this get worse. Making sure NOT to offend the thief is now the priority.
    It’s definitely worth putting a large man or 2 at the exit who could easily deal with him and put an end to this theft because the loss prevention kids aren’t able to do what is needed…

    1. DEMS???? You need to get your facts straight or maybe do more readingโ€ฆโ€ฆ this impacts Everyone!!!
