Hey alright,
If I get by,
it’s mine.
the noconsequences hashtag implies that this has “value” as propaganda.
Can the bike rental be traced?
Other stores, yes. Walgreens, no.
Walgreens reportedly takes a hands-off approach to shoplifting. Interfering with a would-be shoplifter can lead to assaults, injuries and insurance liability; instead, employees are encouraged to call the police only after suspects have left the store, according to their posts on Reddit.
Suspects are known to shatter front door glass to escape even if the security guard locks the front door.
Yeah, since the pandemic Safeways seem to have police officers stationed at the doors (some locations like Geary had them for a few years now.)
If it’s San Francisco, they are probably Patrol Specials, not regular SFPD. (Though they dress the same, you have to look closely at their badge to see the difference)
Sorry to say, but that’s VERY naive thinking, at least for San Francisco.
Just the other day, a beloved local 72-year old shopkeeper was stabbed three times in the head with a weapon by an attacker/robber in the store. Shopkeeper will lose his left eye. He has no insurance. News link has a URL to his GoFundMe page. That is a local shop, local owned.
To be fair, until the would-be thief actually exits the premises without paying, it’s not attempted theft.
