Just that I am disgusted with Corporate America attempting to do as they please and piss on their customers.
This was a very poor example of, should I even dare to say, "security".
In all honesty, I believe that Lowes should be who is fined and someone there should be going to jail. And those kids that attempted what they did, should be warned, let go and commended for letting the rest of the world know exactly what Lowes isn't doing.
But that's just my opinion, and we all know about those... Opinions are like a******s... Everyone's got one, but it's just the other guys that stinks...
