You still have to call the cops to press charges on a shoplifter. And stealing is illegal, also.

Its a stupid premise. Cops called too often to Huge place where millions of people visit that has lots of crime.

First off: lol Second, "You make enough money so you don't get equal protections under the law." is the dumbest, most childish belief a grown-up can have. Third, like I already pointed out, you can't prosecute misdemeanor theft (shoplifting) without calling the police. So, you have to call the cops.

City of Tampa posted:"you have some level of responsibility to put forth the barest minimum of effort to prevent your own poo poo from being stolen" is a pretty adult position to have actually Please list all the crimes that applies to, so I can pick the appropriate shaming technique for your bad opinion. Or not, and say instead something like, "well its Wal-mart and I don't like Wal-mart, so I get to feel which law apply to them." Zombiepop posted:Is this even legal? Over here you have to pay the police If you don't have a valid reason to call them/ If the cops dont think you have a valid reason. The many cities have this; I suspect Tampa does too.

If you want to take a deeper look into it, you'd have to examine the interplay between criminal charges, and the threat of civil lawsuits. Wal-Mart has policies about engaging disruptive, harmful, or dangerous individuals, because guess what: they get it wrong, they get sued. Police have immunity from civil suits, generally, so why would Wal-Mart risk getting sued for millions by tossing a drunk out on his rear end, when they can have the Cops do it? Edit: they have a whole handbook and training for dealing with shoplifters; 'false imprisonment' is a type of claim in a civil suit.

City of Tampa posted:lol whut? Its sometimes called "qualified immunity" and it protects cops from civil suits for things like punching, arresting, shooting, restraining people etc., all of which would be actionable civil claims amongst private individuals, if they do these things while acting in the line of duty.

Its complicated, but if its wrongful conduct, then yes, either the city, or the cop individually.
