Could she have shot her attacker? They ruined east hills shopping center, now the ghetto scum will ruin the local mall.

I would never work as a clerk without being armed. Given my propensities I would probably keep a short barrel shotgun under the counter. Regardless of my employers desire or instructions.

I have a duty to protect my customers and myself from violent assault.

I would not dare shop in that store after seeing this. Knowing the store Managers/Owners made no attempt to have any security shows me it's not safe to shop there.

Security camera's are only good for after the fact and even then there's no guarantee of finding the predator/perpatrator. Think about it though who would really stop anyone from beating another person right there in the say supermarket or dept. store? The security, at best, in any dept. store/supermarket, is the person who checks your receipt making sure you paid and that's it.

Oh I don't know, I think he hit the nail squarely on the head.

Woman gets caught stealing, beats up store clerk for catching her stealing, everyone else stands around not doing anything. Quite frankly I think everyone should have stepped in smacked the living s**t out of the woman, and they turkey walked her into a corner and made her wear a dunce cap that said, "I am a stupid idiot thief who cares about nobody but myself", till the police arrived.

BUT, because it's "racist" to tell everyone it's a black women, or it racist that because the alarm went off and she's black, and the clerk was doing her job.

When they find her, I hope they throw her thieving behind in jail for years.

I wonder how long it will take for Al Sharpton and Jackass Jackson to show up and defend the thief's actions? To organize a protest and demand that the clerk is charged with a hate crime for trying to aprehend one of "his people" committing a crime. Heck, he's bound to find a way to blame the store for creating the situation. They actually expect people to PAY for stuff? Whoda thunk it?

I wonder when Eric "racist" Holder will have the FBI filing hate crime charges on the victim?

Clash of moralities. Unfortunately unless you have the ability to support your position you should back away and live to fight another day.

I worked as a floorwalker back in the day during college. The ***** that stole the clothing would have gotten body slamed hard if she had put up a fight like that. However that was way before cellphones and portable cameras.

Any man would stop it. Those 'males' weren't men, they were sheep, I can't say on here what they really were . . .

And this is why sometimes, it is in fact OK to hit a woman, which is what I would have done had I been there.

You want to attack somebody like a man, expect to get treated like one.

We have a mall in the area that closed down because it got a bad reputation for crime and people stopped going. Recently another mall area started having some high-profile incidents kinda like flash mobs and groups just out to rob and cause trouble and they came down HARD on that crap.
