Well duh, you're not supposed to give things away for free."A separate statement from Staples to Vox on Monday said that after an investigation into the incident, the manager involved had been fired."
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Really not enough information to go on. Does the manager have a tendency to specifically target people on racial grounds inappropriately? What is their % of being right when attempting to prevent shoplifting? People always get incredibly bent out of shape when an innocent person is accused however shoplifting is a massive problem. People have DIED because of shoplifting incidents. It really seems that Staples is playing the PR game here as opposed to giving the employee a fair shake."A separate statement from Staples to Vox on Monday said that after an investigation into the incident, the manager involved had been fired."

50 fucking billion dollars. And to be honest I'd rather spend twice as much preventing it because people who shoplift are filthy parasites that bring society down. Police almost never expend resources dealing with shoplifters unless loss prevention apprehends the person for them. In this case the police officer felt there was enough probable cause to ask the woman to show her pregnancy.
Ignoring how incomprehensibly dumb and ignorant the rest of your post is, these two statements are verifiably false. 1) Police departments do follow up on theft, even on low cost items, without the store stopping the person. In fact it happens so much that people get upset concerning how much police time WalMart uses because of the police following up on theft cases and how those cases end in settlements rather than charges. 2) This officer was working for the store, that's OT and they are very much subject to the commands of the management. If management wants someone stopped and questioned that person is stopped. The officer's opinion and what he knows of the scenario is irrelevant. That's how his authority in these security gigs work. The management could have asked for a trespass just cause and the officer would have had to follow through. If officers don't follow management they lose their OT gigs and that's a big deal for a lot of them.

Like shooting a homeless man for stealing toothpaste?
My sister stole some nail polish and panty hose when she was a teenager, with more than enough cash in her purse to pay for it. The store's security guard called the police and our parents, and the situation was "resolved" in the manager's office: no official charges, no police record. She was allowed to pay for the items and go home, with a severe scolding and a promise from our parents that she'd be "grounded" for a month or something.....people who shoplift are filthy parasites that bring society down....
Sure, shoplifting is a problem for all retailers, but not all shoplifters or "product loss" are treated equally. In my sister's case, she was a cute white girl from the suburbs, with parents that could drop everything and rush to the store. If she'd been black or brown, with parents that couldn't be reached or couldn't leave work, it would have ended differently. That was over 40 years ago, but not much has changed. Hello?
The solution isn't to treat black or brown criminals like your sister, its to treat your sister like any other criminal. Teach them a lesson, put it on their record. Not only will they think twice but their social circle will as well.Like shooting a homeless man for stealing toothpaste?

You only say that because you like the idea of a police state, not because you want any equal justice under the law.
Nothing like a criminal record to force someone to mend their ways...by being unable to get a decent job for the rest of their life.
Hope is the denial of reality
Oh yes, shoplifting on your record prevents you from getting any job anywhere. Please.
You have fuckers who literally get DUIs and kill people and play for the NFL. Obviously not everyone can get a NFL job but there are plenty of people with petty crimes on their record (ie not felonies) that find jobs. Hell people with felon records get jobs. With the Trump economy unemployment is really low.
