A tale of two CVS stores.
First, in Georgetown, two men shoplifted from a CVS. The manager called the police, as is store policy. He did not press charges, but had the police tell the men not to come back.
A BLM activist was there, pulled out her cell phone, and decided to try an internet shame the manager and police (copied video, original recorder locked her account).
The argument she made is that calling the police on black shoplifters is risking the shoplifter’s life over property that the manager doesn’t personally own so that he can protect his (implied underpaid) job.
Id est, black shoplifters should not have the police called on them and that corporate property should be free for the taking.
As a result of this manager’s actions, there were protests outside that CVS.
Here is where this situation got even worse.
We don’t know what that warrant is for, however, the police are now unable to take people with active warrants off the streets because BLM is making too much of a fuss.
BLM has made it clear that they are on the side of lawlessness.
BLM activists have stated that looting is just a form of reparations, so they believe that blacks have the right to steal whatever they want from businesses.
Now, let’s go to the other side of the country. Very same day. Also a CVS.
This happened under Prop 47, which essentially legalized theft up to $950.
Everyone just stands around a people stuff makeup into their backpacks.
At one point the Manager looks like he tries to leg trip one of the shoplifters and the shoplifter turns on him like he’s going to beat up the manager. The message is clear, just let them loot if you don’t want to get hurt.
Five shoplifters each taking $950 in goods is a single hit cost CVS almost five grand in loss, plus damage done.
This was one hit on one day.
How much theft needs to happen before CVS decides to shut down a store because it is unprofitable?
So the question now is: how will CVS respond to the Georgetown incident?
Will they defend their manager and their policy against the mob or will they kowtow to BLM and invite bankruptcy through loss?
If they go woke, they will go broke one sticky finger at a time.
The ball is in their court, I hope they chose wisely.
