They would have never liked shopping at Service Merchandise!

Prop 47 was passed 8 years ago (legalize theft up to $950 per store). I’m surprised it took this long to see the effects …

But - once the merchandise is released, what’s to stop the person from stealing it anyway? Do they have folks escorting them all the way to the registers?

All of this is version 1.0 of the retailer response to theft. Somewhere along the line the shopper will receive a fob or token with an order # in it; press the fob against a screen to ID what you want to buy, along with quantity. Press "End" when you are done shopping. Proceed to pickup and settlement area, where somebody in the back room has picked and packed your order.

The retailer has the alternative of abandoning the store location. Somebody will come up this or something similar in order to keep retail available in bad neighborhoods with high theft rates. And this could be used for groceries as well as toothpaste, so it could be the answer to food deserts.

Pissed because it makes it harder to steal.

There is a solution for Target. Have a secure window with bullet proof glass like a Bodega. Walk up window. No more open browsing.

What a lovely world this liberal utopia we were promised is.

Target has lost direction. The officer who ordered the goods locked up has no conception of business and is ignorant of business in general

The reason for being in business is to make a profit. The Target store is not able to operate at a profitable level and must cease business.

Smart people left Nazi Germany. Now smart people need to leave California.

I know this has been said a million times in one form or another but ‘where the buck stops?’ is with the LIBERAL voter of San Francisco.

Until these dumb as*** figure out that “stealing other peoples shit” is bad for them, and crapping in the elevators is too, they will continue to vote democrap and nothing will change.

This is pretty good Stage 1 security.

Stage 2 security is when the glass spews out blue dye if somebody smashes it.

Stage 3 security is when the floor electrocutes anyone standing on it if adjacent glass is smashed.

It’s a perfect system for the criminal gangs... and the city just stands back and lets the retailers try to deal with it. This isn’t shoplifting. This is looting with tacit approval from the city.

We used to shoot looters. Now we reward them and prosecute those who try to stop the crime. The results are to be expected.

The DAs and politicians allowing this are the biggest criminals.
