    It’s 99% shoplifting. But the police in my area don’t use those parking spots anyway, they always park in the fire lane.

      Still, they’re having to call the police so frequently that this parking space made sense to someone. Maybe there’s something about their store that needs to change. If a strip club was having to call the police every single day, they’d probably shut the place down.

        Wal-Mart is kinda the Mecca of shoplifting; it’s turbo-corporate oligarch despotism so nobody feels guilty about shoplifting from them, they’re usually located central to low income areas, and everyone assumes they don’t have the budget to have a robust loss prevention department (they do; it’s one of the most robust I’ve ever seen).
