Why bother stealing it? I can't even tell you how many people I remember crowding the manga sections of Book Off just standing there reading cover-to-cover (or even read the new Jump at the local Family Mart) when I was living in Tokyo. When I asked my host mom why they weren't run off she told me that it made the store owners feel safe as they wouldn't be robbed if they had customers, haha.
i have had similar experiences (not the shoplifting part) where i speak in decent japanese and i get the "wa-ka-ri-ma-sen". it's like they expect english to come out of my mouth and they just assume they won't understand. ah well. :)
even the shoplifters are polite!
