Maybe they just aren't in my area? You know, because of climate change

forgot to give a shout out to @Dolemite censored I'm sure he is the reason they are doing this

Not sure I understand what they’re trying to accomplish. The police aren’t going to arrest any shoplifters even if they’re on camera stealing.

TJX finance chief John Klinger disclosed the body-camera initiative on an earnings call last month. “It’s almost like a de-escalation, where people are less likely to do something when they’re being videotaped,” he said.

That’s not going to happen.

That’s pretty naive of the CFO. People inclined to shoplift don’t care. Not because there’s no bodycam but because they know they’ll face no repercussions.

Seriously. I mean if they’re shoplifting from TJ Maxx, they’re already completely out of fucks.

if Tik Tok has taught us anything, being captured on video seems to increase the likelihood of doing something stupid

Do you think people have less fucks to give because of climate change?

this is similar to the "gun free zones don't stop guns" argument.

how can you be sure?

I'll have you know there is some really nice stuff at TJ Maxx.

I buy a lot of my workout gear from there...usually UA or Nike or something.

you're going to overuse the joke.

 

[outofyourmind]

It's just their Security staff who have them.

Huge waste of time.

This will stop crime, not cameras
Just stand at the door with it.

There’s pretty clear empirical evidence that signs don’t stop criminals.
