    There is a grocery store or chain in Japan. it doesn't have any products on the shelves. it has images and prices of the products. You select what you're shopping for by pushing the buttons. When you're done, your bank / credit card is charged and your groceries are delivered within the hour. I see that happening everywhere at some point to 100% stop theft.

      Now you are getting to the why this chaos is happening. It is by design so people will accept what the globalists want for the world which is to go digital so control is easier since surveillance and control of our digital money will be easily managed. People will actually accept a cashless society and even martial law when criminals are being protected. But first, create the problem before offering the solution.
      And funny thing that your story is about a store in Japan when petty theft is not really a problem and you can accidentally leave your stuff behind and return to find them untouched as a rule. Your story was more about convenience which is part of the digital solution the globalists want us to accept.
      They will offer safety and convenience as their guise for control and we will be "happy" even though we won't own anything in the future.

      No, the stores should be made to give proper notice for many reasons. 1 of which is that people need groceries to live and have been forced to rely on these stores to survive. Plus many other reasons I won't list now. But on the other side, the State is on to the corruption of these grocery chains. Play stores carry millions of dollars of insurance that literally pays for the stolen goods. Furthermore, these stores will pay $100K for inventory, then turnaround and claim they have lost $100 Million..and when audited, will produce evidence of only $200K worth of shrinkage!!! The point here is that the government there is on to these corrupt grocery stores and how they're illegally overinflating and then keeping astronomical insurance proceeds and then double backing to give fraudulent numbers to the public. These are the real reasons why the state of California is doing this and thank God somebody has the balls to do it

    San Fernando Rd in Glendale is losing its 99 cent store. The street is full of vacant stores.

    I recall some story about how when crows leave one of their flock on watch and a predator gets through, they attack the watch before they attack the predator. We should take a page out of that book and take these leaders to task.

    Let me tell you that being an employee at any of these stores also has to suck. My first job out of high school was at a shoe store in a small town, they had ridiculous policies when it came to theft. You had to have 100% visual contact with the suspected thief at all times, while also needing to find the shoe box they stole from, while also having to get a manager/supervisor, AND you couldn’t detain them or anything. Well needless to say, we had a lot of theft since the manager/supervisor was ALWAYS in the back office “working on something”. The district manager would come in to go over numbers/performance, and it always fell back on us for not being “more aware & vigilant”. I swore I’d never work another sales/food service job again, it’s the worst.

    I’m not a lawyer, but this seems like a slam dunk and great counter suit for the stores, draining California’s already empty coffers.

    What constitutes bad behavior?
    Is it what a person can put on display for all to see, or how a person behaves behind closed doors?

      Depends on the outcome.
      If what happens behind closed doors is a deal with a hitman, then yes that’s bad behavior.
      If what happens behind closed doors stays behind the closed doors, then it can’t be considered bad behavior as bad behavior is based on the behavior’s affect on society.

      @@antibull4869 The outcome is an effect. It is more then the outcome, since a couple of people hiding their wrongs, may have the power to dictate lives outside their doors, but their actions behind closed doors only affect them, and how they choose to use their resources. It appears there is too many factors for the common person to understand, even the wealthiest can't mustard up a plausible answer. Modern society says to pick and choose to accommodate their interest, but thousands of years prior to that perception. History proves that behavior destroyed your kingdoms and empires.
