Delaware store 'watched half a million rounds of ammo walk out the door' sparking major probe
Story by Fionnuala Boyle • Tuesday
 
A sporting goods store in Delaware "watched half a million rounds of ammo walk out the door", an attorney said.

Attorney General Kathy Jennings, through her Office of Impact Litigation, asked the Superior Court to enforce a subpoena - a court summons - against Cabela’s, Inc (“Cabela’s”) after at least 500,000 rounds of ammunition were stolen from its store in the Christiana Mall in Newark in less than a year.

Investigators believe a substantial portion of it was sold to drug dealers and other criminals in Delaware and Pennsylvania.
 

The probe began over reports that significant amounts of ammunition were being stolen from Cabela’s, which at the time stored ammunition unsecured in the middle of the sales floor and "made no apparent effort to stop massive shoplifting".

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I honestly don't know what to think,here.

There is no way in HELL one store could just "lose" that much ammo in one year and not be noticed.

It is also hard to believe that a big retail chain that wants to remain in business would by happy about listing losses on their statements instead of profits.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
