NGL I genuinely prefer the bazaars and street markets over the big box stores.

I take your point with the thieves getting violent. The others, ehh. The big box stores really ought not to be there in the first place and be replaced with little specialized mom and pop joints owned by locals the way life used to be.

    Okay so then we have mom and pops, who can't absorb the loss, getting their shit stolen. Don't see how that helps.

    Then we could have this talk. Then we could debate the morality of it.

    Until that time, stealing from Walmart will always be the ethical thing to do.
