Walmart Pre-Crime Treats All Customers Like Criminals

[SmittynMo]

9. One reason people accept this as norm, is

People would just as soon be briefly detained, checked and let go, rather than create a scene and be further detained because you broke their stupid rules. In today's society, everyone is in a rush, and don't want any further delays in their day. Has anyone ever seen anyone detained because of an discrepancy in their cart? Hell no. Why they do this is beyond me. You just left the cashier, and paid in full all your items. There is no way you can add additional items to your cart because there's nothing on display to add once you leave the cashier. Why do a brief check again? And there's no way they can check every item.

If you blew through the checkpoint, what can they do? By the time the police show up, you'd be loaded up and gone. Did you break any law? No. Would you get arrested? No.

I agree with the original poster, you are treated like a criminal, when no crime has been committed.
