Staff Tackles and Chokes Deaf Shopper suspected of Shoplifting (Nasty video)

The two guys who are deaf were in the Clothing store XXI and apparently they were shopping, Staff must have seen them do something to suspect them of stealing, but that doesn't have any support or facts. Before I started filming. The Big Black dude in Jeans who mighta been a store detective jumps and tackles the large hispanic deaf guy. from there I remembered my new phone and turned on the camera,

There was who looked to be the manager of XXI that said to turn off the camera because they didn't want to get exposed for harassing and dealing with a situation that turned sour.

From there, you get to see the turn of events and then in the aftermath, the sorting out of exactly what happen. From what I saw that you guys can't, the deaf guy in the white shirt was apparently assuring the store with receipts for what he was carrying.

Hope that the deaf guys know how to run a retail store.

How do you know if a deaf guy is shoplifting?

You watch for the signs!

It appears the agitated guy who’s walking around is signing, “Hey, my friend is deaf and doesn’t understand you have to pay for stuff.”

My wife is deaf and this kind of crap scares her. She’s told me stories of deaf people being beaten by cops because they couldn’t communicate. She also told me a story about a deaf girl being killed by a gang member who thought she was in a rival gang because she was signing and he mistook it for gang signs.

Somebody tells me to turn off the camera, better have a gun.

My response is, “don’t do anything you’d be ashamed of your mother seeing”.

I’ve just about been shot by a cop at a routine stop for going to retrieve my license and not hearing an order to stop.
