Go to Africa or some other shithole if you think theft is equivalent to intelligence. The first world only functions with a population that can be trusted.

I scanned one item and the machine said I was stealing shit so I had to wait 10 minutes for an employee to scan their card

Then why do y'all let us niggers in? I know we blacks are responsible for more crime as an overall percentage than we do our population does overall in the world. My ancestors are still loin cloth wearing spear monkeys, we commit rape like it's breathing, abuse women and children, we wuz kangs.

I mean you say the first world can't function without us so go to Africa then let us and other poor monkeys in, explain that.

>>10859624
who could be behind this post?

>>10859625
that's never happened to me, what country do you live in? and what store was it?

There are cameras at every self service checkout. If you do things like intentionally enter the wrong items for a cheaper price, one of these days you're going to be confronted by loss prevention and they're going to call the police and I'm going to lol at the greentext story that you post bitching about it after making bail.

>>10859644

I had to stop reading this reddit post at this point.

I'm surprised you can read at all, niggers aren't usually very good at that

>>10859617
Have not 'secretly scored' anything. Got an organic unpasteurized Parmesan cheese for ~1/4 price since it was not in the database. My shop has an 'emergency' price that guarantees that the customer does not overpay in cases where customers are 'stuck' at the self pay registers. An employee arrives and confirms that the item is not in the shop database, then swipes a card and prices the idem at the lowest price withing the category of the item. Its awesome!

>I'm surprised you can read at all, niggers aren't usually very good at that
Speaking of that, my local grocery store recently removed written language from the self-checkout machines -- it's all in symbols and emoji. I imagine I can thank the government for bringing in too many people who don't speak the local language. Diversity truly is our greatest strength

Literally true. The western civilization worked because it was a trust based society. The very reason why the west is collapsing is exactly this - we have lost faith in each other because of idiots who overly abuse the society. Its a damn shame. It took ..if not a thousand years to build the trust based society but it only takes a few generations to Africanize it.

>>10859644
Yupp. If i ever witness a person being busted for theft then i shall point my finger at said person whilst laughing out loud.

>people always leave behind their baskets at the self-checkout for the attendants to pick them up
>think this is rude so I always put my basket where it belongs at the exit of the self-checkout, next to the attendant
>the attendant always thanks me and I don't know what to say back apart from 'thanks' which I think is kind of awkward

Are they thanking me for putting the basket back?
Are they thanking me for shopping at the store they work for?

I don't know what to say either way. I wish they would stop thanking me.

Fun fact: 69% of arrests for larceny were white while 27% were black. According to you the 1st world still wouldn't function if they all went back.

>African Americans are the largest racial minority, amounting to an estimated 12.7% of the population.
Are you retarded (or black)? I don't think anyone's claiming that Africans are committing all the crimes. The point is that they're committing more crimes, disproportionate to their percentage of the population. If they're 12.7% of the population but committing 27% of the larceny, then they are having more of a negative impact on society per person than most other groups.

>>10859695
But they're the ones who are supposed to say that first. If I say it first, they might feel like I'm trying to teach them how to do their job in a rude manner.

>>10859617
playing the self checkout game can literally save you at least 70% if you play it right.

>>10859723
Well usually one would tell someone to have a nice day if you actually mean it, out of benevolence for your fellow man.

If you don't feel that, I suppose you could always just tell them to fuck off and kill themselves or something :^)

You will absolutely be arrested and processed and put in a holding cell for shoplifting. People get arrested after getting caught by loss prevention for shoplifting twenty bucks worth of shit every single day.

>>10859657
>shopping at meny
You're already overpaying for everything else though

I lived in a town that was all pretty well off people except there was a part of town where the people who provided the services to the rich people lived. It was all white and no crime but everyone hated you if you lived there. Especially cops.
Anyway when they installed these in the local along with a scan as you go device I'd get 200 dollars of food for 20 to 40 dollars. The girls who were supposed to keep an eye on them/assist regards would help you if they knew you from around. Also if you went late at night and they were closed they'd just not scan the expensive items. One Easter a checkout loli just chuckled a 60 dollar spiral cut ham to the bagging area-she lived a couple doors down.
So don't treat the help like shit because of course they will want some revenge.

Tell those guys to fuck off. They can't restrain you or detain you. In my state that's false imprisonment or even kidnapping. And if they try to hit you then you can defend yourself. Fuck you Officer NoBadge.

The Walton family and their bloated super centers are not effected by any pathetic skimming off the top. They lose hundreds of dollars per store per week in broken and rotten goods.

I love how people make a big fuss of shaming the most meager crimes while ignoring or glorifying monopolies that employ people at such bare-minimum wages that they feel the need to get ahead by stealing and getting assistance when able.

My favorite thing about self-checkout machines is that I can pay in change and meticulously use all of my pennies, nickels, and dimes in order and I'm not inconveniencing anybody. If I pulled that shit with a human cashier, I would feel bad that I'm wasting their time and holding up a line.

Just learn to use generic responses like "cheers". You'll have an easier life without having to think on the spot what to say.

I work for a store that has self checkout. Sometimes the managers will let people steal multiple times over a few weeks so they can make their crime worse so they get in even more trouble when they do get arrested. There are cameras everywhere, if you got away with it once, don't expect to get away with it for long.

I wear headphones (not ear phones), and have met all the self-checkout employees at my wal-mart, they wave to me which is weird. I steal meat all the time. I'll act like I'm scanning it, bag it, and continue on.

Depends on where you live, but citizen's arrest is universal in burgerland. In theory, the old lady buying dried figs with nickels has every right to detain you if you committed a crime.
Most jurisdictions have additional laws to grant protection to employees (like Peep Beep Meme Creep) who detain you in a reasonable manner for theft. These really just grant additional protection, so your stupid thief ass can't challenge it in court and waste everyone's time.

The AI profiles for likely shoplifters. Are you black?

Some states require it to be a felony, but ALL states have citizens arrest laws on the books.
And in those states where felonies are required, almost all of them have ruled in favor of arrests for petty larceny anyway.
There's no place without one or the other. If you steal shit, Parp Barp Mall Shart can (probably) detain you.

I'll let you dumbasses in on a secret, store owners know this happens all the time, but the losses are less than it costs to hire more cashiers so they don't give a fuck and write it off as the cost of doing business.

>>10866194
a cashier makes minimum wage 35 hours a week, @~$17K a year. each machine costs about $12k. once. self checkout is nothing but profit. prices will never go down either, the cost savings won't be passed on and more jobs will disappear.

Not really, faggot. You and everyone agreeing with you are shut-ins. You think Wal-Mart goes through every receipt and the corresponding camera footage to make sure nobody's stealing, hundreds of times a day?

I've robbed the self checkout at least 50 times Usually with an entire cart of groceries worth at least $100 I get out with for $20 or less.

>>10859617
Stores over here they have a person monitoring the self checkout stations and can see if you're putting in the wrong shit. Gotta show your receipt and have your groceries inspected too.

>>10867618
Pretty easy to slip past them if the self checkout is full, which is all the time certain hours of the day here. And they don't check the receipt unless you're buying something like a TV.

Make sure you learn the codes for discounted produce (like bananas that are super ripe) and the non-organic stuff. Then just type it in regardless of what kind of bananas you actually have. Not a court in the lane would convict you if you were like "Oh I thought that was the one code for bananas sorry"

>>10861656
Fucking kek

>>10859851
That would all depend on how much you are stealing.

Once some guy I know got caught stealing beer and they told him to leave and never come back.

>>10876853
So somebody acting sketchy is more likely to be observed and then potentially caught about shoplifting than somebody who doesn't?

One thing I've learned, black people put their head on a fuckin swivel when they're up to no good.

Crackers up to no good just act fairly normal but they'll stick their shit in the bag that don't belong.

I've probably gotten away with hundreds of pieces of free fruit/vegetables by doing this for the last ten years.

Not him but that has literally 0% to do with anything he asserted. I mean, his is about recent reported crime in a national area, and yours is about the entirety of history of the progresss of civilizations. Both of you should probably just kill yourselves.

War is an excellent motivator for progress and development.

You either keep up with your neighbours or you get defeated and occupied or annexed. Which brings the cultural achievements and progress of the victor to the defeated.

Those aren't police men, they are "security guards" aka minimum wage flunkies in a costume and can't do shit to you. Sure they will pretend like they have authority, and most people will fall for it because they don't know any better. You can literally ignore them and walk out.

I had the scale get an error.
It read my large bunch of organic bananas as 0.01 lbs.
I paid a penny for them and my receipt shows it.

>>10878368
No you can't. Anybody can make a citizen's arrest, and they're better equipped to do so than most.

>>10862494
Mmh

>>10878443
By that logic I can just arrest the guy making the citizen's arrest...

I always punish any dipshit store that uses these scales by surreptitiously pressing my hand down on the scale when the attendee isn't looking. Get fucked crapitalists

>>10878443
I'm good friends with a guy who owns an armed security guard company and motels and groceries are his primary customers. I asked him if they were authorized to apprehend shoplifters and he said absolutely not, that's an entirely different realm of much higher insurance rates. His guards are there to protect patrons and employees from physical harm.

How was it? I've already had 3 today

These things at Walmart literally have a camera that scans your face and hands as you pass things over

They will just wait till you keep coming in then charge you for a bunch of thefts

>>10859617
I worked 1 week at as a cart pusher/bagger. I had to constantly look after these machines, let me fucking tell you man. There are unironically people who roll up with fucking 2 carts with 500 dollars worth of produce and shit, and expect you to bag it by calling you over. It's ALWAYS the fucking asians too.

>>10879056
Anecdotal evidence. One security firm's policy does not mean mallcops are unable to legally arrest you on suspicion of shoplifting.
Many, many stores tell their employees not to intervene for many reasons. That doesn't mean they aren't within their legal rights to do so, and it doesn't mean they won't execute this right 1 in 100 times.

>>10878737
You didn't witness him in the commission of a crime, and you don't have probable cause. The police would arrest YOU for false imprisonment.
Fighting probable cause is one of the most futile efforts in the American justice system. The case may never go to trial, but you will basically NEVER get probable cause overturned if a cop ratifies the mallcop's arrest.
In contrast to conviction, probable cause is very much a "guilty until proven innocent" field. Good luck proving Paul Blast didn't have adequate suspicion.

>>10881907
>muh legal rights
Did you not read the part in my post where he said it was due to sky high insurance rates which indicates it results in numerous civil suits? His clients are local guys that own 1-5 groceries so they're not capable of paying that kind of security rate. However, My guess is corporate chains may very well be able to afford that level of security.

lmao these things are insane

>literally just stick shit in my bag
>"unscanned item in bagging area please wait for assistance"
>turn and look at the worker
>they scan their keycard
>continue stealing

its literally too easy. none of them give a fuck and if they do none of them are confrontational enough to dig through your groceries

>>10881186
I seriously doubt this. Anyway if you're the kind of person who goes to wal-mart with any regularity you're probably gonna end up in jail eventually anyway

>>10882010
Right, but again remember that you said they "can't do shit to you."
That's extremely false. Whether or not they WILL do shit to you is another question, but you have no recourse if they decide to do so.

If you slide a few packets of gravy mix into your jacket on the way through the aisle and you get caught, odds are good they won't do shit but threaten you and demand you put it back. Or they'll bluff and claim they're detaining you, but won't follow through with physical force or chase you.

If you're lifting $300 toolboxes from home depot, you can expect to be properly detained by Pap Brap in a small room until the cops come.
(I know this because I met a man in jail who was busted in exactly this way.)

I live in Australian and it use to happen to me a lot at Woolworths, before they changed the scanners.
The scanners have scales under the bagging section. So they use to weigh what you put in the bagging section to make sure that you weren't stealing shit.
Problem was though, the scanners are fucking retarded. So if you scanned something light and then put it in the bagging section, the scales wouldn't register it, so the scanner would lock up and make you wait until an employee came over to check.
Or if you took a full bag out of the section and moved it to the area behind, it would be fine with you taking the bag, but then bitch about "Unknown Item in Bagging Area" when you put it in the rear, forcing you to put you're full bags on the ground. And if you were using a reusable/canvas bag and put a new bag in the bagging section, some times it would register that and shit itself again.
Thank fuck Woolies stopped that shit. But K-Mart and Big W still do it.

I used to do this in high school for like 2 whole years until I got nabbed by the attendant and she made me scan each item in front of her. Pissed me off at the time but at least she didn't call LP or a manager or something

Then why did she take me to court for rape? Fortunately the jury agreed that I had no way of knowing there was no implied consent, but it was not a nice thing to do.
