Loss Prevention Officer and the Holding Room c*ck-up

[C0mm3n]

Is the Budweiser Ok?

[jholleyjr2]

This is bad training. That guy should have been put in handcuffs and searched.

[Tehgrimreaper]

@jholleyjr2 Agreed, what kind of a moron LP makes a guy empty his pockets by himself, he might of well just said "Pull out whatever shop object you have in your pocket and i'll give you a couple free shots on me before I can react" complete moron.

[OfficerAntelope]

@jholleyjr2

Obviously you are not familiar with British law....

[Stix080803]

I'm a LPO in Canada and how the fuck did he not see that coming??? The body language from the accused tells u he was going to try something.

[fazorator]

as soon as he dident do as he was told put him on his fucking arse . By the way he looks more like a guard than a lp.

[asoka2000]

People who steal from a store, because they figure the store is huge and makes lots of money so can afford to lose stuff are just plain idiots. It's not about whether a store can or can't afford to lose stuff it's about morals, and braking the law. If something doesn't belong to you, you shouldn't be taking it without paying for it. Something is too expensive for you, but it from somewhere else. It's a thing called comparison shopping, or just save money so you can buy the item you want later.

[asoka2000]

Had that LPO been me, I would have punched the guy, after all the guy had punched him, which means the LPO couldn't get in trouble as the law does say you can use as much force as is necessary nothing more, and since that guy punched the LPO it gave him the right to punch him back.

[asoka2000]

The LPO here is not very bright having the guy sit near the door. The LPO should have been on the side of the door. If I had been the guy arrested I would have just ran out the door without trying to put up a fight.

When I arrest someone I stay infront of the door and have the guy sitting or standing a few feet away ,infront of me so I can still see him but at same time be safe.

[OfficerAntelope]

@asoka2000

That door is locked and barred.

The door we came in through, was not.

[lola13mariola]

@TheGraduate2012 to correct you, this is loss prevention, not the police....

[zombiewraps]

talk all the shit you want about LP. but think about this the next time you do. LP (loss prevention) varies per store but averages 1.45 million a year in restored merchandise. That saves the typical shopper 25,000 in a life time. If you wanna pay out 25,000 more than you need to by all means your an idiot. LP saves the store money which in trade saves the shopper money. Think before you speak.

the money numbers are in USD (united states dollar).

[lola13mariola]

@zombiewraps well said!

[zacthebold]

@zombiewraps Your point is only valid if you support the current economic system where retail giants like wal-mart slowly dominate every aspect of our economy turning us all into their slaves. If you hate the system then why not try to change it? Like Robin Hood. Why then shouldn't you then have much hatred for the Sheriff of Nottingham? Shoplifting is a rebellion against the established order. The evil king would say that Robin Hood was causing the taxes to be even higher.

[OfficerAntelope]

@zacthebold

I see your point about big conglomorates, but as for stealing as a means of rebelling against the system?

Er... No.

[asoka2000]

@zacthebold I disagree. Just because a retail store dominates the economy and you feel they treat you likes slaves is no reason to steal,that's a lame excuse for stealing. If you don't like the store you don't have to support it by buying from there or working there, no one is forcing you. Stealing doesn't change a system you dislike it adds to your stupidity and makes things worse . Theft is about greed or being too cheap to pay for something or rebellion on your parents not the system.

[zacthebold]

@asoka2000 Yes, there are other motives but it can still be for the greater good. I do boycott huge stores when I can, that is a lot more practical. If you think the current retail powers are corrupt, evil, and just generally bad for the towns they inhabit then DON"T HATE THE PEOPLE WHO STEAL FROM THEM!!! If you are too stupid to realize what these giant retail chains really cost us and the rest of the world then continue to hate them and think LPs are heroic. BAAHHH!!!

[asoka2000]

@zacthebold Really,tell me what makes boycotting a huge retail store any different from a small retail store .They are both businesses trying to make money. Explain your reason for current retail stores as being corrupt, evil and bad for the towns they inhabit. Every retail store has a right to make money. Some become huge, only because people are buying from there. If you don't like certain retail stores, buy from some where else.I do have respect for LPOs because I know what they go through.

[asoka2000]

@zombiewraps I agree with you, but some people are too stupid to realize this.

[Money10094]

@zombiewraps Your an idiot if you think im paying more money just becausse the store cant get its shit strait...

[ClarkeGarbutt]

LP got out of that hold from behined good though lol

[rjr27nh]

To the shoplifter: You are caught and you need to listen. You are just making it worse. They are part of the store and if they get hurt, your chagers will be upgraded to more serious. Get a job and stop stealing!!

[samboni10]

why is it LP, security, and cops all have the exact same fucking hair cuts and have the exact same fucking attitude? Things would get solved a hell of a lot easier if they just behaved amicably instead of trying to be authoritative and behave with such a sense of entitlement

[OfficerAntelope]

@samboni10 I'll pass your comments on to my barber. He also resets my attitude for me. Twunt.

[SAMSIZZLE123]

@samboni10 Because they don't deal with same type of people and situations as people who are pussy about stopping crime, LP, security, and cops customers steal, and punch us in the face. And we do something that we generally love and have a good time with it. There are plenty of teachers, cooks, and all sorts of people who give themselves such a sense of entitlement. Thats why you gotta give it up to these guys, they deal with scum, and get more ridicule than praise, and they still love it.

[MrJordabro]

@samboni10 in a real world, how one were to conduct themselves, all depends on the situation or person that's being dealt with. Some times that authoritative behavior is required to bring the situation in control, but if someone is co-operating then yea it's not required. Again it depends on the situation. Haircuts... each into their own, attitude... not all are the same and i'm pretty sure you already know this so why you mentioned it is just daft lol

[drclean2000]

too bad there's no audio

[beadslovers]

Budweiser are always on sale in US.  He must have sticky fingers.

[02fastaudis4]

yea why the hell did the back up run? i woulda knocked the bitch out first thing when i saw my partner get hit!

[southforsunshine]

to bad he didn't have a gun

[OfficerAntelope]

@southforsunshine

Who?

[J3TPILOT1991]

@OfficerAntelope haha love how there's no reply when an officer aske's, (he meant the officer thats why he's being a pussy by not replying) no disrespect

[OfficerAntelope]

The case of Bud was recovered merch...

And I don't drink American beers, they're shite!

[juan5150]

crazy vid! loved the head butt with the back of the head...... where was your backup though?

[dobopyork]

I dont know your store policy on detaining shoplifters, but handcuffs are very nice. The unwritten rule is once you put them on you dont take them off. BTW was the budweiser for yall or was he trying to steal that as well?

[punksk8r0]

I believe this is in England, From what I know...No one in the entire loss prevention industry for any store over there uses handcuffs....not one store, except security guards at theme parks...

[OfficerAntelope]

Using handcuffs is classed as application of force, which has to be justified.

I would have had no problem justifying it here, but companies say handcuffs are verboten, to minimise lawsuits.

I have and have used handcuffs before. It's just a matter of not dropping the bloody things on the way to the holding room... :S
