Well, NYC just keeps voting for the nazi democrats - what do they expect? This is obviously, what they want.
Does one of these elected Democrats own the store? Well which is it? Are the Democrats Nazis or Communist seeing how the TP'ers cry both. Go get someone the explain the difference between the two to you.

If they were off duty, but working for Macy's in their police uniform would that not be illegal? I am pretty sure it would be. Either way they would still have no power outside of the store and unless they had actual evidence a crime was being committed.

What's the big deal? The door greeters at Wal-Mart check my receipt every time I leave. Doesn't mean it's profiling.

Around here they do it while off duty, and get paid by the store to provide security it is more of a side job. It is not on the taxpayers bill. To be honest, I like having actual law enforcement at the entrance of store I am shopping at. It keeps the thugs looking for a target of opportunity away. They will go after an easier mark.

If the stores are so worried, shouldn't they have their own security?
If regular cops are doing this, they clearly have too many cops on the payroll. They should be responding to calls of criminal behaviour, not checking people's bags on the slim chance someone might have stolen a scarf
