The people that vote for something should be first in line to experince the result of their own politics, like the feminists that want a mandatory draft for both sexes to the military.

    In China, shop owners can use violence to defend themselves against shoplifters. But, given there are so many street cameras in Chinese cities, thieves are usually caught within hours. Currently, in China shop lifting is pretty much nonexistent, because 1: shop owners can defend themselves and 2: the police will catch you and will persecute you if you get caught. Catch and release is not a thing in China.
    I think shop lifting in the US is running out of control is because the government is giving criminals too many rights. At this point, it almost feel like criminals have more rights than law abiding citizens. However, every time when the government tries to protect the rights of a criminal, the government is doing a dis-service to anyone who obeys the law. To punish a criminal harshly, is the greatest respect to any law abiding citizens. It is sad to see what the US is becoming.

      Easy to prevent theft. Easy to verify if there are outside forces lobbying for unrest in NY.
      I'm from Europe, but I think in USA this is also possible. Not sure why nobody tried doing it yet. Shops that would do it, would break the bank in NYC.
      There is something called "certificate of good conduct". This is a way, to determine if someone has any criminal record. It's very likely, that most people who are in that line of "work", also have criminal record.
      Team up with local shops, and finance an opt in database for people who have no criminal record. People can register online, and are issued a pass card. You can only enter the shop premise, if you are allowed, and have a card issued. Otherwise, you are considered a trespasser on private property, or even breaking and entering. Consult lawyers how far can they push it, find all ways, legal exploits to bend the law to penalize barging into a shop without a pass and or permission as much it's possible, make a shop a "private club" or some such.
      If you are issued a card, and are found stealing, it can be revoked anyway.
      Theft would fall on it's face. Shops could afford to make products wayyyy cheaper than shops which have to deal with theft. People would feel safer in those places. Everyone would go shop there ( well, not everyone 😉 ).
      People today lost all problem solving skills. Unless government does everything for them, they act hopeless and roll over.

  • @ashblossomandjoyoussprung.9917

    What I find funny is that companies will spend an absurd amount of money on these gimmicks to prevent shoplifting and lobbying for societal change... But, they won't hire a few security guards to keep an eye on things and be like "Hey, buddy, you gotta pay for that or we'll file a police report with what you stole, the serial numbers of what you stole (so you can't sell it online, at least not through a reputable place), and my description of you."
    In general I think that's a problem across most customer-facing industries. They'll hire fewer workers, try to replace them with expensive tech, then when it backfires they'll get rid of the tech but still try to hire as few workers as possible.
    It's how you get situations where Burger King might only have a single miserable dude working in the kitchen and an overworked cashier up front, then they wonder why people don't want to eat there anymore, or why they're an easy target for theft.

    I am a homeless resident of Portland, OR and bad, ineffective policies arent limited to NYC, unfortunately. While I agree that some former laws were a bit draconian and lead to unfair targeting of the poor and minorities, going the opposite direction and coddling unrepentant, repeat offenders only exacerbates the problem. There is NOTHING wrong with enacting stiffer penalties for thieves, especially those with multiple violations in a short period of time and those who attack employees. I do believe that 1st time offenders, those whose crimes are clearly linked to addiction, and thieves who steal less than $200 should receive priority for Detox/ Rehab, Outpatient counseling and treatment, and supervised probation for at least a year. The monetary amount for felony thefts should be reduced to $200 and with every repeat offense, that amount should be halved and the sentence should be doubled.
    When a person faces years in prison for stealing a pair of shoes, there will always be detractors..but I wonder how they will defend it when it turns out this is their 4th or 5th charge in under 2 years. This has got to be stopped before going to the grocery store requires more security checks than the airport. Portland recently lost all of its Walmart locations and the downtown Target flagship store also closed- within a year of buying the whole building and sinking over a million dollars into renovations.
    There's just no excuse for it. I've been homeless for 7 years now and I deal with a 24-year long opiate addiction- and I have ZERO need to steal. Oregon has a .10 deposit on recyclable bottles and cans and anyone with a shred of work ethic and integrity can easily earn enough to meet the most basic needs. Portland offers multiple venues for low-barrier drug treatment, and any addict who wishes to get clean or get on suboxone can do so in 1 or 2 days- free. Stealing is only "necessary" for those who are lazy or morally bankrupt

I think Amazon can help if they want to be a good Samaritan, but it is not their responsibility. These are the risks of owning a business. When it comes to products, you can go as far as to include theft from people in 3rd world countries who are not getting paid properly for their labor. Child labor, etc. You can think of products that are not free trade. We are likely contributing to theft in many unknown ways.

    Wait, the more they shoplift, then the more prices will rise, then in turn makes the stolen goods more valuable, which makes the thieves even MORE money because the stolen product will always be a better value proposition. It goes until the stores shut down cutting off their supply.

    One store in NYC has eliminated shoplifting. B&H photo. You cannot carry any bags in at all, no hoodies, no oversized jackets. And, to get out, you have to be buzzed out of the store. If you buy something you have a pickup area to claim your purchase. Then you can claim anything you carried or wore into the store.
    That is going to be the future of retail, where nothing is on a shelf at all.

    1 - NOW retail rents are an average of $75,000+ a month
    2 - Internet sales are outpacing in store sales by 65%+ at ALL of their retail locations.
    3 - Shoplifting via PUBLIC accounts for .05% to .23% of National Losses
    4 - Shoplifting via EMPLOYEE THEFT accounts for 15% of National Losses
