the key component here is that Target’s own woke policies brought about the culture that is now doing them harm.

Our local Walmart has an aggressive shoplifting prevention officer. She is an former Marine and goes to town on the thievery. My son is a police officer in this small town and that kind of behavior does happen.

I was sitting in the parking lot waiting on my wife near the front of the store and a cruiser pulled up and then I see my sons cruiser pull up and in a few minutes him and the other officer walk out of the store with a cuffed female, mid twenties. Out of the blue as they are about to put her in the back seat she tenses up and handcuffed takes off running only to go about two steps and then caught and thrown to the pavement with a what the *(&*(&^* do you think you’re doing from him or the other officer. My son picked her up, put her in the cruiser and took her to jail. He said it’s about half and half on the shoplifters. Some go peacefully or start wailing how they can’t go to jail and then you get the fighters.

Where are the Sikhs when you need them?

If the Sikh community started a new security guard agency, they could make millions.

The best day in American Sikhs culture and quick stop culture was that time period when the social’s had no idea what quicky stop that was. That it might be the one in your town made it ok to walk in pick a 57 oz frozen cola and look for blood splatter and give some high fives.

The criminal element just needs any firm resistance to see that the life of crime could be replaced by a putting on a clean shirt and applying for a government job.

"Not one person helped the cop."

Yeah, I noticed that too. But we did have the usual guys with cell phones recording it.

In 1975, I was returning from deployment and I had bought an M1 Rifle from the ship as the navy was getting rid of them. I didn't have a case for that rifle and even though I was wearing my uniform on the bus, I was feeling pretty self-conscious. I arrived at the LA bus station - which had just been renovated - and stood in a corner to be less obtrusive as I waited for the next bus to San Fernando

All of a sudden, a big commotion started in the middle of the station and I saw it was a young LAPD cop fighting on the floor with a skinny black man. The crowd in the station did what crowds always do and stood and watched. I walked up and saw the perp trying to grab the officer's pistol and his partner was nowhere around. I also saw that a a couple of other young black men were moving towards the fight to support the guy fighting the cop.I opened the breech of the M1 and loudly opened my ammo box and started one clip into my rifle.

The fight stopped, mid-punch. The officer realized that I was on his side and quickly cuffed the perp.

I removed the clip and put it back in the ammo box and his partner finally showed up and arrested two more men who were trying to intervene on the perp's behalf.

When the first cop got his breath back, he asked me if I would have shot the guy he was fighting with - and I told him, yes I would have. I was recently back from combat in Vietnam, so the only issue I had with shooting the guy was who else might be in the path of the bullet.

He then offered to carry my rifle and the ammo box to my bus.

A different time.
