“Install a panic-button lockdown for the doors.
(mic) PA: Ok shoppers, please line up at the cash register.
Simple.”
Hmmmmm, 10 women, $60 each, $600.
And how much would it be to replace a door that was shattered because it was locked? Or to pay for a damaged clerk because the 10 women turned on him or her? Or, how much will the lawsuit be settle for when one of the flash robbers is injured in the panic to open the locked doors?
The panic system I helped install in a small grocery years ago was amusing. The windows and doors, barred of course, locked. The catch on the shotgun under the counter released. The best part was the door to the yard where the two trained attack dogs lived was quietly opened and a high pitched signal was broadcast to the dogs.
In Texas, if you attempt to commit robbery during the hours of darkness, deadly force can be used to prevent the crime. I would not have believed it myself except that I was on a jury where that exact thing occurred.
