c) If you saw a stranger shoplifting in a store, what would you do? Would your answer be different if you knew the person?

Some people shoplift bc their homeless and don’t have have enough money to buy necessities in life others steal bc they want to and out of pettiness. If they are stealing cuz they need it I would try and help them to get to a better situation in their life. If it’s out of pettieness I would have them in jail for a certain amount of time depending on what they stole and how much it was worth if I saw someone stealing I would talk to them and ask they to either put it back or pay for it or let me pay for it. It wouldn’t be different if it was someone I knew
