Any pictures might need to be censored.

Just . . . saying.

It happens honestly

Now she just wants to get paid. Tractor Supply left one on my Carhartt recently and I had to go back the next day

forgot to remove the censor on a bra she purchased

I guess the censor is to remind her that it's a "breast", not a "tee-tee". Nevertheless, where are the photos???

It's a SENSOR on the bra. Not a censor.

Unless...

no, that happens! I have purchased things and got home to see there’s a sensor on the item. You need a tool to remove them so you have to go back to the store.
Obviously the alarm/sensor combo were not working at the time I left the store.

From the poorly reported story—it looks like as far as the cop could tell she was returning stolen merchandise.

This is the same old story everything white people do that a black person doesn’t like is waycism waycism wacyism

-Even though the guys at starbucks refused to make a purchase even though there was a sign that said you have to make a purchase to take a seat or use the washroom
-the bbqers in Oakland were using charcoal in an area you’re not supposed to.
-the five black golfers were holding up the line of the golf course.
-the waffle house woman was drunk and causing trouble

same story every time- blacks not obeying the rules and crying waycism when someone calls them on it.

Actually, that has happened to me on several occasions, including a Coach bag I ordered online. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out where the censor was hidden in that thing, but I set off store alarms every time. It took awhile to even figure out it was the purse.

Finally went to the Coach store and they found it.

Sales clerks leave those things on plenty often. And it’s very easy to walk out of the store with the alam going off. When you don’t steal, it doesn’t dawn on you that the alarm is for *you*.

If she left the item at the counter wouldn’t she she have left the receipt as well? If she did produce it, store is wrong. If she didn’t, or can’t them story changes.

A clerk at a dept store here in Pennsyltucky left the senser on an article I’d bought, which set off alarms as I exited the store. I whipped out my receipt, demanded a refund and told them I’d not be back. I question why HER senser didn’t trigger the alarm? I suspect mischief.

Years ago, I worked as a clerk for a large drug store chain in Los Angeles County, California. It was not an uncommon occurence for certain "customers" to steal something from one store in our chain and drive to another to demand a cash refund. Sometimes we would get a call from another store in the area, sometimes not.

But there were certain telltale signs, the most obvious of which included no bag & no receipt.

We had a black manager at my store, great stand-up guy and I remember one encounter in particular because the woman (I won't say what color she was) approached me to demand a refund. I called my manager over and he asked a few pointed questions which ended with her getting huffy and exclaiming "I don't appreciate being called a liar!" He calmly replied "And I don't appreciate being lied to" before escorting her to a back room to explain her options to avoid arrest and a police record.

I’ve read the article a few times and I can find nothing in it concerning the determination that the problem was racially motivated except by the “so called” victim. Not a real good act by the employee, but unless there is more to this problem than we are seeing, it had nothing to do with race. Just another instance of the card being drawn out to set an example of something we need to stop when it actually happens, not when it is perceived.

Victoria’s Secret discriminates against the elderly too:

” I question why HER senser didn’t trigger the alarm? I suspect mischief.”

It could have been faulty-—it happened to me.
