Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
This last year I’ve heard multiple stories about retail store chains closing stores due to theft. This is especially true in cities where police protection has declined dramatically.
In addition, more stores have implemented policies demanding that employees not pursue shoplifters. Although there are safety reasons that may legitimize these policies, the result is even more crime.
When criminals learn that your store will not stop shoplifters and that the local police do not have the resources to arrest or prosecute smaller crimes, it is natural that you will experience more crime.
Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.”
The solution is holding criminals accountable. When justice is carried out it will eventually deter other criminals from committing similar crimes.
