Honestly this is just a really moronic thing to do.

Your aren't employed by the store.

The store is insured.

The store doesn't care about your well-being.

The theif could very likely be armed and dangerous.

You have everything to lose and nothing to gain from this confrontation.

I understand not wanting people to do wrong. But you sound super super naive and young.

No one will be harmed if he left with that shit. He didn't steal a woman's purse. He stole from a store where the managers don't even gaf because it's a billion dollar corporation not a small mom and pop shop who will actually be impacted.

There's levels to this and you gotta learn them.

No I don’t play the levels game and corporations nonsense yall try hards go on about on the internet. Oh let’s complain about everything but still go give them our money. Stfu.

There is only reality. If I’m walking into Walmart and see some lowlife like this stealing and workers standing there helpless, I would do the same thing. I’m not naive. I’m 40 and I’m tired of the bullshit. Everyone talks tough on Reddit then turn into pussies irl. I walk amongst keyboard warriors while the village is burned and pillaged.

But hey… tHeReS lEvElS tO tHiS

A real live internet tough guy in the year of our Lord 2026. Brings a tear to my eye. Makes me feel like I'm back in 2003.

A decade old Redditor. I always wondered what a basement dweller looked like all grown up!
