  • I worked retail for years. This is every retailer’s company policy. Nothing in that store is worth dying for. The only event where you would go hands-on with someone in your store is when you get to the last option of the active shooter response. The best thing you can do is note what they theives take, and call the cops with a description after they have left the store

    I was very nearly run over one time because there was a group stealing shit in my store, but I didn’t know it at the time. They thew a half empty Gatorade bottle at my storefront and when I went out to pick it up, they ran their car up on the curb at me. I ducked back inside the store, locked the doors, and called the police. Reviewed the security cameras and notices they had lifted a few small items from my endcap displays. I also called the store down the street from me that they went to next.

    So yeah, if someone was stealing shit from my store, I’d hold the door open for them.

    Nah, you need more than afterburners. The SR-71 had some very advanced nozzle inlets for its engines which allowed the plane to move and bounce the supersonic shockwave around in the engine inlet to generate extra compression and to keep the incoming air from just building up and flowing around the engine instead of through it. If you took a F22 and pushed it up to those speeds, it would flame out and stop working long before it got near the SR-71’s too speed.
