The police and security would tackle clearly unwell people who were shoplifting food, face pushed into the concrete type of thing.

Cops can generally get away with that. Store security guards assaulting customers open the store up to a lawsuit.

Jesus Christ that all sounded (unfortunately) normal until the locked freezers. That's a step too far. I mean, all of it is, but that's actually a ridiculous concept lmao

The "bad" grocery store near me has taken to posting security cam pictures of people they catch stealing which is a terrible, awful, extrajudicial thing to do, but I would be lying if I said it does not make for some hilarious pictures. It's a big wall of shame right as you enter the store.

My wife's creepy racist incel uncle had a fit once when we went into a store and he saw himself on the security camera. He said he doesn't like seeing himself. My sister had the same reaction to seeing herself pre transition and apparently it's a common theme among trans people who haven't realized it yet.

I know it's a bit of a tangent, but he's rabidly transphobic up to the point just short of being blatantly hateful. He's obsessed with my sister and other trans people and made a lot of obsessive and creepy jokes about dating them.

This post triggered my PTSD.
