Target Finally Gets Serious About Out-Of-Control Thefts, Lowers Intervention Threshold To Just $50

by Tyler Durden

A new Bloomberg report reveals that retailer Target is finally cracking down on thieves by lowering the staff intervention threshold from $100 to $50. Target management has complained on earnings calls about 'shrink' in recent quarters and surging thefts that have squeezed margins.

People familiar with the new policy say employees will soon be able to intervene and halt criminals from leaving the store with as little as $50 in stolen goods. The previous threshold was $100. They say the new policy will be enforced this summer.

Problem: Is it worth risking bodily injury over $50 from chimpout?

Really all target needs to do is announce that all store staff is armed.

I think the splibs will just shoot the store staff and then steal stuff.

Iffen the splibs are willing to chance getting shot for fiddy bucks, target could release footage from surveillance cameras of an overweight gal with pink and green hair named Misty Dawn register three capping Tyrone the thief. Stage the whole thing, the ghetto chimps will freak when walmart puts out a press release that they will follow suit.

Hell, most of the soldiers in WWII didn't have the wherewithal to kill other men, you think some minimum wage chicky-poos would?

Read Lt. Col. Dave Grossman's book, On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society"

The revised and updated edition of Lt. Col. Dave Grossman's modern classic about the psychology of combat, hailed by the Washington Post as "an illuminating account of how soldiers learn to kill and how they live with the experiences of having killed."

In World War II, only 15 to 20 percent of combat infantry were willing to fire their rifles. In Korea, about 50 percent. In Vietnam, the figure rose to more than 90 percent.

The good news is that most soldiers are loath to kill. But armies have developed sophisticated ways of overcoming that instinctive aversion. The psychological cost for soldiers, as evidenced by the increase in post-traumatic stress, is devastating. This landmark study brilliantly illuminates the techniques the military uses to help soldiers kill and raises vital questions about the implications of escalating violence in our society.

My training was pretty righteous. I don't have a problem with it.

(Edit) I don't lock my gates to keep myself "safe", I lock them to keep you safe from me. The FWPD insists on it.

You give my Executive Producer, Dakmar, a couple hundred million, my Medical Consultant, Kimmy, a million/yr, and we've got the most popular Teevee show ever.

My salary is negotiable, but don't even think about starting less than $20,000.
