    > I'm way more afraid of falling homeless and into that spiral of despair than any possible person with a gun. Said the person who's clearly never had a gun pulled on them.

        Called the cops, described gunman and weapon, replaced the watch he got. Continued to walk late at night, tried to woolgather less.

  Nobody is shoving a gun in people's faces in these stories about retail crime. People are just taking stuff off shelves and not paying for it.
