I would have to suggest......is just have everyone pay by credit card or paypal/venmo/cash app/apple pay. All people have smart phone just about so shouldn't be that hard. Then just have no cash in the store. As for the equipment I suggest locking them in a room with a pretty secure door with codes to get in. If it's harder to get the stuff, criminals won't enter or they will just move on.

Hospitalized for 2 months. The city of San Francisco District Atty. who was recalled recently released the criminal from prison after only spending a few weeks in jail.

SF doesn't deserve to have business owners like this.

[@SouLoveReal]

Chris Rock once told Ed Bradley of "60 Minutes" the difference between Black People and Niggaz, because Ed Bradley had a problem with C-R using the word "niggaz." C-R told him, "Black people get up every morning, go to school, go to work, you know, MAKE SOMETHING of their lives. But NIGGAZ? Niggaz WAIT for Black People to go to work or go to school, then come over and ROB them. Then when Black People get home from school or work, they see the police out in front of their home or business. Even before the police tell them why they are there, a nigga walks up to them and says, *'Man, you got robbed.'* Hell, YOU KNOW they're the ones who did it!!! There, Ed. Black People... ... ... ...Niggaz."
