You couldn't have walked face first into the pillar if your head was turned 90º. Cheek first maybe, but not face first.
Also, I'm a deli guy. They shouldn't have sent any normal employee to confront alleged shoplifters. That's cause for a lawsuit, especially if it turns out they have a knife or gun or otherwise injure the employee. No matter how big he is.

Just curious but why is it important to tell us what you bought? It adds nothing to the story.
That makes no sense, you can't actually bust someone for shoplifting until they leave the store.
Not saying you should chase shoplifters (I know at most places it's straight "let loss prevention handle it" aka "just let them run" depending on where you work) but you really think most of them are carrying weapons and are going to fight over that merch? This is not bank heist-level crime.
These plot points will be left dangling, OP still hasn't finished the bird story:

That was an oddly detailed story.
How close to these people were you, i mean the eye colour mention, really? did you actually walk past them or do you have super sight?
It's probably the internets fault with how much made up nonsense people post across it, but I always find it hard to believe such detailed events. It kind of reads like a made up story to be honest.

The little details really added to the story. It's like I was really there.

Many petty criminals can easily panic and become violent. It's just not worth the risk to me.
Most establishments aren't willing to open themselves up to the legal headache of detaining someone over 5$ of goods. Especially when many times the critiera of a suspected shoplifter is "he's Black".
Pretty much.
Not sure how this thread went from one instance of shoplifting to an anti-America circle jerk. But whatever. You sound bitter.
Apparently so. Ignorance at its finest. Oh wait, that'd be America because of [insert-random-policy-I-don't-like here]!

If your head is turned 90 degrees, how can you walk face first into a pillar?
He probably sensed he was about to hit an object, turned, and face planted into the pillar?

Everyone seems to love the descriptive details, but I honestly got bored and didn't finish reading the OP.
I wanted to what happened and how the OP was feeling during the encounter .

Depending on what grocery store it was, it may be in clear violation of company policy. Where I work, we're explicitly told (and repeatedly trained) to not go after shoplifters. That's the job of the loss prevention representative, and no one else is authorized to do so. Not even the store manager.
So for a supervisor to instruct an employee to put themselves in violation of that, and potentially into a dangerous situation, yes. That was wrong.
