You don't own the store, Walmart does. While you are on their premises they have every right to ask to see your receipt.

Yep. Just like in my home I have the right to have anyone not speak vulgar or open carry their AK or wear a pussy hat or tell them to get the fuck out and never come back if I suspected them of stealing a trinket if they refused to have me pat them down.
They have no rights in my home. I’m not the government.
This is not about "Rights". This is about the law. Laws and Rights are very different.

They have every right to ASK you. Force you, no. They do not. But afterwards they have the right to trespass you.
Stand corrected on the asking part....
Yes. As that was directed at those that agree with the points of this video.
Correct. Just like they have the right to see your wife's tits.
And they should expect the same response from both.

Trying to catch up in my 2 day absence, so I didn't read every post. But I do want to say......this has to do with family values. Kid's used to be taught morals and the fact that, you do not take what is not yours or face the consequences. I apologize for not reading all the posts. There's probably many that deserve the like button.
Oh, and FUCK walmarts.

And because you do not want to show me your wife’s tits, I have the right to bar you future entry.

So do you believe in property rights or not?

I've seen a lot of bickering lately. The left is winning.
Nobody said otherwise. If they first accuse you of stealing, then ban you, you should probably take the hint anyway.
Dumb question, considering I've said nothing to the contrary.
And bickering about Walmart, FFS - isn't that like a double dose of useless?

I have noticed that the last 2 or 3 walmart threads tend to be multi page threads... LOL

So because there is a left, we should all agree with each other all the time otherwise we will lose?
I’m guessing that Glock is the best pistol and the AR15 is the best rifle for you because the left is against us. We all now have to pick one truck to drive too now. I hearby deem it a Chevy.

The Left is winning now.

Is that what I said? BTW I hate glocks,,,,,and ARs are not my favorite. Lastly I don't give one iota what you drive. If you like what you drive, I'm happy for ya.
I just got tired of trying to read through 4 pgs of walmart squabbling.

Yeah but if you do not agree with our rifle and truck choices, the left is winning. That’s exactly like saying because we disagree on a Walmart issue, the left is winning.
It’s only an analogy. I don’t think anyone here is willing to fight or ignore someone for a Walmart disagreement. They either believe in property rights and respect Walmart’s decision to curb or minimize theft or they don’t. That’s it.

I completely understand. It's all good. I'm just tired of it all. I wish we all could enjoy the constitution as originally intended with like minded people. With that said.....I refuse to support any company or corporation that supports leftist ideology. Whether it be Dickheads sporting goods, Wallfarts, or who ever.

He likely covers this... but: Stopping you or in other words "detaining" you, and asking for "proof" of your purchase is in so many words an accusation, or implying "I don't think you paid for that". Take instead the Loss Prevention team, store detective, etc., doing that very same thing is called (in their world) a "bad stop"; or detaining you for any period of time to accuse you of theft, and is grounds for a lawsuit that could include but not limited to damages for being detained, personal damages for the embarrassment, and a handful of other things in your favor.
Theft is defined as depriving an entity of their property and removing said property past all points of sale without making any attempt of paying for that property.
I think this guy over emphasizes your "rights", and the likelihood of being trespassed is not very likely at all. Most "greeters" or whatever they decide to call them have been told over and over not to pursue anyone who refuses to comply. Any violation of that directive could not only get that person fired, but again the lawsuit angle rears its ugly head.
Yes, they are only trying to deter theft / loss by employing this tactic, but may only deter; not pursue beyond that deterrent.
I personally pass them up most of the time with a simple, "No Thank You". I have never been pursued beyond that statement.

I never stop when they ask ... they normally tell me its store policy, my reply is normally i don't work for Walmart. NOW they are not required to let you shop their either.
Exiting sams club today I asked why they check receipts and then scan an item in cart. Not only to verify a random item is actually on receipt but that receipt is from today. Apparently people try to use receipt on separate occasions to “double “ their purchases.

I think he is right. Anorher thing I dont stand for is not having cashiers at checkout. If the lines are huge I ask for help if they point me to the self checkout I say no thanks and I advice that unless they have a cashier I am considering absndoning the kart and leaving due to them not providing reasonable and reliable checkout services.
Every time I get someone to accept the checkout and I ask people in the line before me if they want to go first as courtesy.
If everyone did these things we would have better service and more jobs and if the milk goes up 50 cents so be it. In the end one of those jobs will be mine or your kid who is in college.
So yeah, I agree with @Darth on this one. If you want to be treated like a loyal customer stop acting like sheep.
