A woman in Florida says her 55-year-old “medically fragile” father was falsely accused of theft at a Florida grocery store last week and then seriously injured in a violent encounter with police. Now, she says, he is hospitalized and has lost the ability to speak.
Was it though? Would you not defend an elderly family member from a frothing at the mouth racist?
They should have left the area, escalating the conflict didn’t help anyone.
They were followed out of the store and berated in the parking lot. They only had to stay in the area because they had not finished business at the laundromat yet.
I think leaving the store was part of the problem, not the solution. That’s when it becomes shoplifting. That’s when you can no longer get the cashier to tell everyone you paid for it
