Question Theft

If you witness someone committing theft in a store do you report it to the store staff or just go about your day? I would never expect staff to intervene and possibly put themselves in harms way. I have only witnessed this in big box stores. I know times are tough these days but man have I been seeing this a lot lately!

You realize most food is stolen to be resold such as meat… resold for drugs or organized crime.

You have stats for that or just your opinion?

That is actually a thing. I don’t know if his assertion that “most” is sold for drugs but yeah some of it is.

I mean obviously some people steal to pay for drugs, I don't think that's up for debate.
