Re: Yesterday's Lowes experience
I ordered an item on line and had it delivered to a store near my work location. Little did I know just 20 miles apart makes a huge difference in how stores are configured. Almost everything behind lock and key at pick up store. Needed bar oil for chain saw and yep, locked up. Found an employee near what I needed and he wasn*t happy at all with having to open the cage for me. Would only do counter pick up from that location again, if I ever went back.

Re: Yesterday's Lowes experience
Yup. If you already know what you want and you just want to buy, order for pickup (curbside preferred) is the way to go.
Buying stuff at the store is only good if you're not sure what it is you want, what you want is too big for that kind of thing, or just want to "shop".

Re: Yesterday's Lowes experience
At this point, I'd be OK with store security capping thieves in clear cases. Use of force if they won't show a receipt. if they run, high-speed pursuit is authorized, with 100% of the blame placed on the perp, who rots in jail until all compensation is paid to victims.
Our economy dies unless people pay for what they use. It's bad enough the producers are taxed to hand cash to the parasites, it's worse if anything of value is only as safe as the chain holding it to something immovable. We're 95% of the way to anarchy when it comes to protecting the citizens, contrasted with Draconian punishments if you defy the Regime.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com

Re: Yesterday's Lowes experience
In fact, I'd go further; in ALL cases where criminal conduct causes harm to innocent parties, the perp stays in jail until he or someone else on his behalf makes the victim whole, and I'm not counting the victim's own insurance. You crash a Ferrari into a bridge, you better have assets, rich relatives, or write a best-selling book in jail.
Restitution would be on top of whatever period of incarceration time is required to deter you and others like you.
No age limits, either. If 5 year old Bobby sets fire to a $10 million warehouse and it burns down, then Bobby stays with the state until it's replaced. And maybe both his parents have their assets levied, or are banned from receiving public charity ever again. Bobby has already destroyed more wealth than he's likely to create in his lifetime, society isn't required to set him free near the forest during dry season with some gas & matches, so we lose 1000 acres of trees and some firefighters lose their lives.
Owning the consequences, in all its forms, made America great. Innovators got rich, idlers stayed poor, criminals went to jail or were executed. It's a system with the best possible incentives & deterrents.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com

Re: Yesterday's Lowes experience
The problem with that plan is that you just fuck over the taxpayers.
A better plan is to dramatically expand the use of the death penalty. And a good one, not the kind where you sit in jail for 25 years. All death sentences to be carried out within a year, period.
Death for any violent offense above simple assault.
Death for any property damage over $25K unless you can make immediate restitution (and I'll accept insurance from the offender).
Death to anyone doing shit for the purpose of ruining someone else's life (revenge porn, deep fake whatever, etc).
Death for manslaughter, unless you can make restitution satisfactory to the victim's estate.
Death to anyone in the country illegally, and anyone employing, housing or feeding them.
Etc.
