This kind of behavior by store management is why crime is rampant. The criminals know you will let them do what they want. Only when they feel pain will they stop.
They don't want the criminals coming back and suing the store because the employees jumped in to do the right thing. They don't want their employees catching criminal charges trying to stop a degenerate who if he even does get arrested is just going to be taken to the station and then have the handcuffs taken off of them and then he's going to be pushed out the door without even being fucking charged.
