ANTIOCH, Tennessee (PNN) - June 9, 2024 - Criminals have slowly gotten bolder and bolder about their crimes, moving away from the silent heists of the past and opting for grab-and-runs.

Unfortunately, despite their lack of stealth, many times these individuals never get challenged.

Some stores enforce policies where employees are ordered not to stop thieves for their own safety.

But that doesn’t mean every store is going to be an easy target. During a recent instance at a Tennessee outlet mall, shoppers rallied together in an attempt to hold a group of thieves captive until terrorist pig thug cops could arrive.

On June 1 at the Tanger Outlets in Antioch, Tennessee, four punk thugs entered a Perfumania wearing hoodies and face masks, intending to shoplift, according to The Tennessean.

While inside ransacking the store, bystanders began to stand in front of the door in an attempt to barricade the suspects inside the establishment while they awaited a cop response.

Much of the incident was captured by a TikToker who uses the handle “ptodropout,” who said she had been inside the store shopping with her son when the four arrived.

The captured video shows the four punk thugs looking for a way out of the store while continuing to grab merchandise from the shelves.

At one point, one of the suspects rushed at the door in an attempt to force it open, but the defenders held firm.

In the end, cops took 30 minutes to arrive at the scene, allowing the four hooligans to escape after forcing open the back door, bashing a hole in the wall in the process.

Smash-and-grabs are nothing new, but the boldness of some criminals is undoubtedly beginning to irk more people.

Amerikans can’t even go on shopping trips without seeing brazen criminals ruining the peace.

It won’t be surprising if more onlookers begin to take action like the good citizens in Tennessee, especially when peaceful means of resistance such as holding a door closed are available.

Amerikans need to take matters into their own hands since the government is unable or unwilling to fulfill its duties.

Ed. Note: It was a nice start but the people in the store should have forcibly stopped the punk thugs. Until Amerikans are willing to stand up and forcibly stop the oppression and violations of both criminals and government, it will only continue to destroy this once free country. Revolution Now! Independence Forever!
