If you robbed from a store at 12 and again at 16, I wouldn't blame that store for banning you for life. If they want to give you some lenience and allow you in only if you agree to a patdown and search of your bags, then they're being more forgiving than I would be.

> No one is searched when they leave stores.

In fact there are stores which will ask to search your bags and check your receipts as you walk out the door, and may ban you if you refuse. You probably realize this and are feigning ignorance.

Anyway, what's really insane is the way you're bouncing around this thread giving so many people such low quality replies, like the one directly above where you try to gaslight karamanolev by falsely claiming their comment was unintelligible. It really seems like you have some undisclosed stake in this matter, because you're not being fair or civil to many of those you respond to.

It is probably a mistake for me to respond to you at all.
