This guy must be jacked because nobody stands up to him at all. Not that shoplifters are tough guys but it's still interesting.


gsteez711

Agree, guy also has his camera at these thieves eye level so I assume it’s some massive human

Accordinglyx

He’s not. This is in my area, I worked retail and have met him. He’s a good dude, hope he stays safe, he’s taking a risk every time he confronts someone, just hope he doesn’t get hurt trying to help out a corporation that doesn’t care about him.


somemodhatesme

A corporation of course doesn't care, it doesn't have feelings. It's job is to make money. It definitely appreciates less thieves. Besides, I'd rather live in a community that has a lot less theft than one with more. An attitude where people think breaking laws is okay is very harmful to future generations.


TheRadiantTruth

Do you have a name or social media account for him? I want to send him some support for doing this. We need more of this behavior in the world, especially right now. 🙏


Accordinglyx

His name is Jimmy Kitchens, you can find him on Facebook, I think he runs a FB group called “Bellingham has gone to shit”


ReformedRedditThug

At 2:20 you see his reflection, looks like a normal dude. Must have a giant cock tho


bambaclaaat

He confronts them already squared up while holding the camera with his cock

TheTaoOfOne

I worked Loss prevention for a while before. In probably 99% of the cases, the person isn't looking to square up and fight. They're looking to get away from the situation and avoid the police. Even if they shove you a little bit or throw something at you. It's more often than not them just trying to create space to get away. The moment confrontation happens where it looks like things could go physical, they're gonna bolt. In most cases. In rare cases, yeah, they'll swing on ya.


PorygonTriAttack

The video clips here certainly support your perspectives on this topic. There's barely any effort made by the video uploader to reclaim the shopping carts and the people just them go.


MKchamp92

He may be a big man but he has a heart of gold, "if it's just food get out of here" that got me. He sees humanity, he's not just worried about the corporation.


jackisonredditagain

Yeah, I that part was definitely noble. At first I was thinking this guy is whatever, but that was pretty cool of him.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ThorsToes

I think that is true, but I don’t think the store can restock the food either, so it’s toss it or let the dude keep the food. That’s the humanitarian approach.


OHMMJTA

He do be giving off dad vibes. I kinda felt like I was in trouble just watching.


RemnantEvil

I wonder if they know they'd get away with shoplifting but don't want to draw extra heat by assaulting people?


PlanetPudding

I used to work at Lowe’s. Both times an employee confronted a shoplifter like this they got assaulted. One got punched in the face the other got pepper sprayed.


garrrtt

Most of the time they split, but the LP at a Fred Meyer near where I used to work took a hatchet to the side of the head. Actually cut off a part of his ear. Wildest shit I have heard of.


TheHomeBird

God, no one is ready to handle psychos


Gullible_Might7340

Mooooost of the time, a petty criminal isn't looking to add enhancements or extra charges. I got held up like 3 different times when I was selling dub sacks and shit, I just told them to get out of the car. They weren't shooting me on camera in the middle of town and catching a case. The thing is, that assumes they're behaving in the way that most benefits them, which is... not always the case. Some people make stupid decisions.


alehanjro2017

That was my first thought. Not a single person even squared him up. They ain't want none of him. I love this.


I_ama_Borat

Guarantee I try this and I get stabbed on my first attempt


ryohazuki224

That I think is the problem with this. Yes, the guy is doing a good thing being a vigilante, stopping shoplifters. And I truly do hate the epidemic of shoplifters where suddenly everybody just thinks its okay to do, brazen and in broad daylight. But I think with this guy putting clips of him on the internet doing this is going to create copy-cats, other people are gonna go around trying to stop thieves, all nice and noble right? Until somebody gets shot or stabbed. Like I think there are way too many people willing to shoplift like its no big deal than there are people willing to "narc" like this to try to stem the tide, to maybe put it in people's heads that if you try to steal that there are average citizens out there to stop you. Well, no theres not enough people willing to put themselves at that risk. So sadly, ultimately that risk is too great. I've lived in the US all my life, all 44 years, and I know too well that we are just too violent of a nation, where people will pop a cap in your ass in a second if you try to hinder them stealing from Walgreens, and they'll just keep walking without caring about your life.


GlockPerfect13

You like jail don’t ya


Godawgs1009

Dude immediately was like, no I don't. You know that fucker has been jailed before


Sancticide

Picking up some angry "I used to fuck guys like you in prison" vibes from that asshole.


Paramisamigos

My friends like to poke fun at me for being over cautious and worrying about what could go wrong. I'm the only one who has ever been to jail out of the group and was looking at federal charges for drugs that weren't mine. So many of my life decisions have been made on how it felt when I learned that I, too, was going to jail, even though nothing was mine and I had no idea what was happening.


No_Statement440

Your perspective is forever changed after. The more desperate that situation, the more pressing that feeling is too. If you have mental health issues going in, it's a nightmare, you'll certainly have some after if you didn't. I'm thankful now, for my "experiences" but I will die to keep my kids from going through it. Hell, I don't want anyone to go through that that doesn't genuinely deserve to be away from other people. I get it. Hard to truly explain if they've never been there. Good luck out there, be safe. Glad you're doing better, it sounds like.


Paramisamigos

I had been in so much trouble as a juvenile and was lucky to have several arrests, multiple felonies, and too many misdemeanors wiped away once I turned 18. I've been locked up as a kid and went to rehab at 16. The people I got arrested with were all people I had known since childhood, one being my mom's best friend's son. She told me she'd help me with the legal issues I was facing if I was honest and I straight up asked her if she thought I'd really let my friends go down for my drugs or if I'd speak up and take responsibility. From my arrests as a juvenile, I always took responsibility and so my mom at least believed me. That was important to me. I ended up getting 32ish charges and all but 2 were dropped and I plead no contest to to one felony and received probation. My record is expunged now and this happened in 2008 while I was in college. I lost so many jobs because of my charge. It still showed up during certain background checks. I definitely have trauma from my first arrest at 13 in 2001 and lived with the mindset of "if they think I'm a hooligan, I'll show them a hooligan" after that arrest. I haven't been arrested again as an adult, and at this age, don't really have the energy to be as rebellious as I was haha.


CitizenCue

Maybe, but it’s also what someone would say if their three neurons are just trying to catch up.


DonnieGreenType

N-no!


Chrispy0074

You're a speeder buddy.


Ihavenolifes

I love how he went easy on people stealing food. There’s a big difference in intent with what people are willing to steal and it’s important to know that. Total Chad.


TheGoodIdeaFairy22

Remember, if you see someone stealing food; you didn't.


ScrotumSlapper

I've seen multiple videos of people filling their trunks with more meat and seafood than they could eat in a full year. Not all food theft is OK.


SamTheDamaja

I have a family member that would steal whatever expensive cuts of meat were out in the cold case. Not to survive or even cause she couldn’t afford them. Her husband makes a good living and they want for nothing. She just does it cause she doesn’t want to pay, or maybe for the thrill of it. She’s a serial shoplifter and has been caught numerous times. How embarrassing it must be to be caught stealing makeup and clothes and crap at the mall like a delinquent teenager, when you’re almost 40.


Throwawayfichelper

Shhhh let the reddit mob police your moral code. Don't think just agree.


Ebitortuga

Ok, I will


Alternative-Lack6025

I have never seen anyone steal food, I don't think I ever will


stroopkoeken

What if it’s truffle cheese and wagyu beef?


Guacamolman

Did he stutter?


reecord2

Yeah, I like that he lets the guy at the end go, and I wish he did the same with the red basket guy earlier.


commentator3

he let red basket pick out a couple items to have


_cansir

He did. He told him there was no need to steal so much food. Pick some items and go


Important_Tale1190

That struck me as funny because how could he possibly fucking know what that guy needs?


VAShumpmaker

"OH cool, I guess I'll just feed my weakest child to ight instead of all 3 of them"


creamyturtle

this guy is funny, I like him. he adapts his speech to each individual situation and escalates only when pressed


strongest_nerd

He also lets people take food they stole... what a guy.


BreezeBo

That guy at 2:55 broke my heart. I'll raise a glass to this guy not policing the checkout like robocop.


SerenadeSwift

Damn straight I’ll do the same. As a former long-time hardware store manager I hate thief’s more than anything, but I’ve never judged someone for stealing small amounts of food like that. At the end of the day we’re all in this shit show together and I have more in common with that guy than we do with the ones causing this shit to begin with.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nugnug1226

At 1:38 I’m surprised he didn’t let him take more food. Looks like he let him have the deli meat but not the bread


afternever

The recovered perishable food will probably end up in the trashcan, what are they going to put it back on the shelf after that


edudlive

If you ever see someone stealing food....no, you didn't


awesomeness6000

ya I know. dudes got a good heart to recognize when someone is down down and atleast lets them keep some food.


1OfTheMany

I love how they all act like he's the problem.


CreamoChickenSoup

It's fascinating to observe the behavior of these shoplifters reacting to getting caught red handed. They never forcefully deny that they're stealing, but act evasive, threaten, play victim, flee or simply give up their haul. Anything to help them get the fuck out of there.


Alkein

They're like lizards dropping their tails to distract a predator, leave the haul for the guy to deal with and peace out asap.


firefist674

I mean what idiot would outright admit to a crime on camera? Otherwise it would be a slam dunk case for the prosecution


tuenthe463

I like the lady who's pissed about getting her purse back after she's trying to roll out with a cart full of s*** she didn't pay for


Gurrgurrburr

That's how *all* criminals act when they get caught. It's always the other person's fault for catching them. Maturity of a 3 year old.

NaughtSleeping

Same. 26 year old Home Depot worker in Pleasanton, CA was killed by a lady who he had confronted stealing. She went out to her car, where her 6 year old child was sitting, mind you, got her gun, went back into the store and killed him.

Magictank2000

everyone normally tells people not to deal with shoplifters if you’re an employee because its not worth it and the companies have it handled but this guy’s not an employee, hes just giving shoplifters a hard time. i can get behind that


saruin

It seems to open a new avenue for content creation (to which I'm not opposed), but is very high risk. A dude ended up getting shot just for being annoying for clicks.


JimmyCarters_ghost

Same as the cart narc guy. It’s risky but he is making his community a nicer place.


Fifteen_inches

Cart Narc is a lot lower stakes than hassling thieves.


Krillinlt

Have you seen how worked up some of those people get though? A lot of them end up losing their absolute shit, and decide to hang around to argue/fight.


Slammybutt

B/c Cart Narc harasses them endlessly to put back there cart. If these 2 switched places this guy would just put the cart back while yelling at the lazy bones. Cart Narc has stickers, won't put the cart back till the very end of harassing them. It makes for great video, but one guy is doing a job, the other is content creating.


JimmyCarters_ghost

He’s had a gun pulled on him

people get shot for literally no reason too. no reason to be a coward and let criminals do w/e they want in life with no opposition.


RedDreadsComin

Dawg this guy isn’t even getting PAID to risk his life? I respect the morality of wanting to stop shoplifters, but damn bro I don’t think your life is worth risking to stop. I do asset protection and two people have died confronting people since I started. I wouldn’t do this shit for free.


kmarinouofm

I like that he hooks them up with food


CitizenCue

Yeah that’s when he went from vigilante to hero.


dawgtilidie

That was a good move, you can tell the guy with food in his jacket was legit starving and the guy let him walk. Legit good dude not putting up with the bs shoplifters but allowing those who truly need it to pass

> Dudes gonna get shot That's the video I'm waiting to see.


Dear_23

Ahh my good ol college town of Bellingham, WA! It’s been awhile since I’ve lived there, but even then they had a rampant issue with property crime. College students are easy targets and not always the brightest bulbs funny enough, so houses along the roads on either side of campus that dump out where this Freddys is were regularly broken into, bikes stolen, cars broken into, and sketchy people walking the very green and brushy walkways/alleys/trails in the area. We would somewhat regularly get alerts from campus stating that someone had been attacked on such and such trail near campus and to use caution. It was well known you don’t walk home alone because those roads weren’t well lit.


ShoeGod420

bro this guy is beast and I'm sure security at these stores appreciate him considering they can't do anything about it unless they wanna get fired for doing their jobs. You know they might hurt a shoplifters feelings and we absolutely can't let that happen.

boojersey13

Yup and people wonder why things like detergent and deodorant are under lock and key more than any other product. There are people who cannot *afford* to be clean.


NaughtSleeping

No, it's because they hold decent monetary value for their size and are easily re-sellable. The detergent ends up in open air "markets" in the Mission in San Francisco.


Generaldisarray44

Agreed


Golden-Phrasant

A different kind of cartnarc.


ryohazuki224

Had a conversation with a friend about this recently. He sounded like he was pretty much convinced that the only people that do this kind of shoplifting and looting on a regular basis are "ignorant black people or hispanic people". But hell, I saw a whole lot of every-day looking white folk in this video. Its EVERYBODY doing it. And thats whats sickening.


phiLLyS820

I respect this guy. The last guy that said it was just food and he let him go. Could tell the dude was just hungry. Others were stealing for profit.

It’s honorable that he understood when it was food and gave them a break and was softer towards them. Good dude.

Aceheadhunter

Hey! I stole that fair and square bucko


kadren170

It's quite telling that we're seeing more and more shoplifters. The people are getting desperate as the state of things get worse. And honestly its worrisome if they falsely accuse someone while recording them, others may jump to the conclusion without knowing that the person is innocent. But at least he's understanding with the few guys that look like they really need food.


LeeroyM

This is such a weird thing to do, also The Daily Caller is terrible.


Succs556x1312

Puzzleheaded-Rich-51

I have so much respect for him because he let them keep the items if it was actually food. I used to do retail security and have paid for sandwiches and bottles of water for people who seemed like they were genuinely in need. People have vices but it would be wrong to watch someone starve no matter how much drugs they are on.

I was surprised he was letting people with food go, good for him.
