They also sicced the armed guards on him after he was on the ground.

Oh god oh fuck, what will this big chain do if they lose the 40 dollar bottle of wine (which got smashed when they tackled him anyway)?

        4.I have been fetishizing violence and dreaming about getting my own opportunity to hurt somebody guilt free for my entire life, he's just lucky I'm not carrying a gun.

      I'm not joking, a cheer went up when they came back. Probably the result of whatever creepy training shit. Either that or they were just looking for an excuse to beat up a minority.

        If it's not because the employee just wanted an excuse to assault a minority or just believes minor criminals should be stopped at all costs and with any force necessary, they're probably the type of person who fantasizes about a shooter attacking someplace they're at, or something like that, so they can be the hero and this minor theft is perhaps the closest they will ever come to that.

        In all fairness, it could be a combination of three, these characteristics often overlap in people.

      I've seen this shit firsthand as a cashier, too. I think they just wanna feel like action heroes, it's messed up.
