Saw someone getting kicked out of Kmart today. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something about the role of a security guard, because it really seemed like it was mostly the manager and a few staff members doing the kicking out while security dude was just standing in the corner looking slightly frightened. I mean, I wouldn't expect them to be dragging someone out by the hair while simultaneously suffering 3 dozen stab wounds, but if they can't even handle kicking out what looked to be a fairly passive, maybe 4 and a half foot tall girl, I don't really understand what they actually do
Visual deterrent, more or less.
