LCBO Madness

[Kautilya]

Ever worked or had to deal with the very poor? A bit of alcohol is some kind of survival for them. Sad but the truth.

They probably steal the booze to resell it.

If they were the types of suspects with large knives and guns then I get the 'let them go' shouts but they seemed to be some weedy looking Indian guys and a woman who the goods can easily be retrieved from..that said, you don't know whether the guy has a machete or gununder his coat. The store employees are probably instructed to tell customers not to get involved due to liability and insurance reasons. Anyway, good for the guy who punched the robber a few times

Or worse lets say the guy lands a few good punches to the face and the perp falls, hits his head and dies, then the customer who tried to help, is now in deep shit.

Insane how they just let them get away with it.

It WAS deemed essential during covid...

It's the new "kind and inclusivity". This is not long-term sustainable.

Let me guess what will happen next. In about 2-3 days the guy who tried to stop the thieves will be arrested on some stupid chargers and the thieves won't be charged.

The Great Hero tries to stop the perps and gets a bottle to the head. His face is lacerated for life or he dies with his throat cut on the floor of the LCBO store.

they should keep the doors to LCBO stores unlocked at night

so the thieves can loot them in peace

@ 0:18 someone yells "Back off, he has a knife". Is it worth someone life to save a few bottles? I will bet you the cops gave him shit.
They have the perps faces on video. I will bet you they have been identified. They look like tambourine tappers.

77M shoplifting theft is a very small percentage considering they netted 2.54 Billion in 2022, that's 3% as losses due to thievery.

Broken windows theory - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

In criminology, the broken windows theory states that visible signs of crime, antisocial behavior, and civil disorder create an urban environment that encourages further crime and disorder, including serious crimes.[1] The theory suggests that policing methods that target minor crimes such as vandalism, loitering, public drinking and fare evasion help to create an atmosphere of order and lawfulness.

There are always 2 sets of doors in any lcbo I enter.
Install armoured glass.

Then just let one of the clowns get through one door on the way out, press a button and the outer doors lock, the inner door closes and locks.
Then just verify only the clown is in between the doors and release the Zyklon B and give all of society a favour, and rid us of a flake.

Where are those Indian guys with the big stick who pounded the shoplifter now that we need them?
It's infuriating.

Where's James Forcillo (and the other lying cops) when we need them too
