      Tell what? All of it’s happening out in the open, the cops just refuse to do anything about it. It’s not like if you tell a cop they’ll be like “oh shit I had no idea, let me go run over there and do my job for once, thank you citizen!”

      To be fair to cops, they’re understaffed and they don’t want to do their jobs for fear of activists suing them. But all of those suits are paid for with tax dollars, so idk why they care, just do your job and if they sue you, they sue you.

      I think it boils down to laziness but with the excuse of being sued.

        Tell what?

        Tell on people who are shoplifting.

        All of it’s happening out in the open

        Then what did you mean by:

        As long as it’s just “shoplifting”

        To me, it seems like you were saying that if you saw people “on a bike with a trash bag, load it up, roll out” then you would snitch, since this comment chain is about not telling on people who are stealing from corporations.

        Please correct me if I’m wrong.
