Will that be cash or card? Oh, just freebies

The incident sparked a heated conversation in the comments

Racial tensions in America have always been at peak levels. Their socio-economic and sociopolitical landscapes are polarised by a violent history of slavery that continues to live in their modern society. With over 4 million views, the video sparked tense exchanges in the comments.

Here is what some had to say:

@AntiSocialJapan said:

"I’m no racist, the complete opposite of one, but the real question is, why is it always black women and men doing this? In every video I see of shoplifting, which is every day now, it’s always black folks. What am I missing?"

@SoufParkMack responded:

"Because that’s the only ones that WE retweet. I’ve seen plenty of videos of white people doing the same thing."

@AdamLowisz said:

"And if you tell them to stop stealing, they will yell at you, Black Lives Matter and call you a racist. What they need is a good whooping. Criminals won't stop committing crimes unless there are severe consequences."

@shot_enigma responded:

"Please shut up. People of all races shoplift. "
