This Bill will effectively stop employees from confronting shoplifters(thieves).

Because confronting thieves has "sometimes" led to escalating or even fatal outcomes......

As store after store has closed in California, how can retailers stay open with basically unchecked theft?

These policies brought to CA by Democrats......Midnight blue California....with super majorities and a Democrat Gov.

As Democrats regularly vote for such idiocracy......

Could you explain your thinking? As your state devolves into anarchy......weirdly like dystopian movies...."Robocop" comes to mind.

Potentially more volume for us…
 
Violence and theft for personal gain is justified in my book. This just formalized it. Anyone and anything in California is fair game to brutalized and steal

Reading the bill it only keeps employers from forcing their employees from confronting and trying to stop shoplifters.

It also requires them to train employees about a workplace violence prevention plan, that includes how to avoid potential violence from shoplifters.

The prevention plan obviously is to not confront or stop them. Which is basically every company's policy already, and the reason why the crimes are rampant.

But this makes it law. The perp walks and the employee gets jailed.

The Govt. of Ca is as stupid as the folks who elect them.

Any employer with ONE OR MORE EMPLOYEES will be required to institute the program, not just retail establishments.

So, no arguing with the guy next to you, or the State of California will shut the business down.

It should be open season on shoplifters. At the bare minimum they should be beaten. Those that run out of stores with shopping carts full of goods should be shot on site.

This can be traced back to prop 47. Idiot libs thought too many from certain minority groups were being incarcerated so they raised the felony threshold. The result being more shoplifting!
