Target security guard punches customer in the face after she demanded ‘reparations’ (2024)

Im against violence, and he should have not hit her. He should have just arrested her for trespassing instead.

With regards to her "motivations," this reparations sh*t is a scam, nothing more.

He can't arrest her. He's a security guard.

He can make a citizen's arrest and call the cops on her.

He acted appropriately.

1. At least she did

just walk out with the $1,000 of groceries, as some other shoplifters do.

2. It is not surprising that some less than educated people are confused with the topic of reparations.

3. If she threw the first punch, the recipient had a right to defend himself.

4. Of course, if she did not use force but just used offensive and ignorant words, no one should have used force against her.

5. Just learned that four Walmart stores in Chicago have had it with theft: they are closing down.

(And some people still say that the future United States is going to be a paradise. Amazing!)

"Karen asked for a manager"

Of course she did.

As with many NY Post stories, the title is misleading. The shop lifter was confrontational and the punch didn't it didn't have anything to do with her complaints about reparations.

These cops were extremely professional and courteous to this poor deranged woman.

Does she not realize she's taking it up with the wrong people? Rosa Parks moment? Ok....

She had no right to enter into that office. And was clearly coming at him. While I may not have popped her, may have just gave a hard shove to get her to back off, I don't blame him at all for doing so. She was asking for it.

This happened about 15-20 minutes away from me, and catch the local news everyday. Was never a peep about it.

Not if he works for Target

she deserved it - she was acting aggressively and backing him into a corner and she was much bigger than him

notice how her aggressiveness left when he punched her?

Hard to be aggressive when your noggin's ringing and you're trying to pick your marbles up off the floor.

We are having a conversation..... I want my free stuff!!

Just a unbelievable attitude.
The sentence 2 days in jail.

Job well done to the police officer's. What patience they had.

Can't walk into some store and demand reparations, it's a piece of legislation that hasn't even entered into process yet.
Some random store doesn't "owe reparations" to anybody, so this is basically a stickup.

This lady sure has a stick up somewhere.

This is a bazaar sign of the times. In my local Walmart, I've encountered women with multiple small children asking other customers for help buying her huge basket full of groceries. Other customers scatter.
