Shops Asking To Check In Your Bags At Checkouts

Oh dear…

 

Sometimes I suspect people just don’t read my posts, or engage with and address the points I actually make. It’s like they just continue to affirm the same line of (their) thought, without comprehending or reacting to any of my points.

 

I have said multiple times, my not engaging with security staff only happens AFTER we’ve established they have no evidence of wrong doing, hence, no basis for suspicion.

 

Sheesh!

 

Hmmm...

It is a growing concern to me too, Mr Waldo...

... people just can't seem to concentrate on any post longer than a simple sentence before their fingers spontaneously bash out some unrelated nonsense!

My next door neighbour got caught stealing a calendar,

They took him to court, and he got 12 months.

And yes you are being confrontational/resistant. In this circumstance the adage of "if you have nothing to fear" rings true. An innocent person would oblige and prove their innocence. 
 

That is clearly not true- I would be as unobliging as I could and make things difficult for them.

Several other posters on this thread seem to feel the same.

Guilty people resist because they don't want to get caught.....

Not just guilty people. And it is certainly not the case that only guilty people resist. 

Some innocent people resist- for the reasons given in this thread.

Go shop somewhere else then. Private premises like shops are entitled to introduce their own rules on their own premises as long as they don't break the law.

Not being immediately compliant when asked to show the contents of my bag is not breaking the law either.

So were Amey employees when they were hacking down Sheffield trees. So are clampers working for those dodgy companies who put up virtually invisible 'no parking' signs. So are the chuggers who harrass shoppers.
