At 10:45 AM, Anonymous said...: Just a random comment not related to the post. I just came from the Walgreens on Gough and Fell. I immediately noticed very limited stock. I also noticed no guard. I asked if Walgreen's was no longer stocking this site. The women said, they were. But Walgreens is allowing people to come into the store and take whatever they want and not pay. The clerk said Walgreens pulled the guard, they do not want to confront anyone who is stealing!!! Is this because of the BLM riots? Is this because Walgreens considers the potential bad PR if they confront shoplifters? OMG i cannot believe it. And these people walk behind the counter too! The employees there are absolutely demoralized! The clerk said people with suitcases come in a load up and go to Civic Center to sell the stuff they take. Honestly i could not believe it. I have seen nothing on the news. I have heard ZERO about this. Is this what we have devolved into? I personally will not step foot in that Walgreens it is not safe right now.

Walgreens to close Van Ness & Market store permanently
