Are you sure it was you? If you weren't stopped, then it wasn't you.
1. They aren't going to talk in your proximity. That would cause a suspect to run. You were too close. It was someone else.
2. I've watched Target track a possible shoplifter (as a cop with the Target loss prevention people). A person on the floor would tell the camera operator to zero in on a shoplifter. If you were looking at facial scrub, then it definitely wasn't you. They were tracking someone trying to pick up a more high dollar item or already had picked it up.
3. Metal Gear crouching? Do you look like a bad azz mofo?

Breh high schoolers and old mamas with no hope work in target. The chick who was spying on me couldn't have been older than 22. I know for sure she was talking about me maybe I have good hearing but when I looked back she was still staring at me while crouched like she was putting some merchandise up.. in the card aisle... OKAY:comeon::martin: also most women say I look like a mix between paul George and sage the Gemini :manny:

Good point.

I'm sure they felt stupid once they relooked at the video. What happend though OP, cause I worked in a store for awhile, was you may have looked like someone who was causing problems in there before. They probably told that person not to come back. You "looking" like the suspect and being profiled by non-black eyes made you a target. It's fuucked up, but I guarantee you that's what happened. You did everything right though.

I'm not saying you should have approached them, but if you do just be nice about it. Mistaken identity does happen. Sorry breh. :mjcry:

Be a black male in America brehs. :martin:

I could only take solace that a black security guard watched me the entire time and felt foolish when I dropped my cash and left.. I was able to see myself getting followed and I thought of ole boy who got blasted in walmart :jbhmm: honestly couldn't believe a fellow black person would call me a suspect and suspect me of stealing in this racial climate.. but maybe I been on the coli too long:dame:

Target Mobile : Expect More. Pay Less.

You could try leaving negative feedback.

I understand not wanting to get into it at the store but you should have said something. Ask for an ETL/manager, put on your best I-might-sue-you-minions attitude/voice, leave the slight impression you might call Rev Al and the local NAACP and you might know a higher up in corporate and make them feel shytty and vulnerable to termination in the classiest way possible.
If you remember names, descriptions you could still try making a complaint to that specific store or inquire at your local Target how to get in contact with district/regional store execs.

Target fires employees with ease. Even managers. They don't want people ruining their classier-than-Walmart bright and shining facade.

And you definitely should not have bought anything.
