From your post Shoplifting in California may get a lot easier, after the state Senate passed a controversial bill on May 31 that would make it illegal for store employees to confront thieves.. What in your opinion should store employees do? Should they confront thieves?

I used to work for a company that realized that a safe work environment was beneficial to the employees and to the bottom line. Injuries and fatalities at the company's work places declined an order of magnitude while I was employed with the company. I fully support employees not being required to confront suspected thieves, it is just too dangerous. I think professionals should be contacted. Carpenters should not do electrical work, lawyers should not do doctor work and a cashier should not do security work.
