"Proposition 47 did not end prosecution of thefts under $950 in California"
There are multiple cases where people have argued they were justified in shooting a thief and won. I am only aware of people who owned the business themselves not employees, so there could be issues there.
In California you almost certainly won't win in a case like that. In Texas depending on the situation you very easily could.
It is of course not a guarantee and if the person is running away and you shoot them in the back you will probably lose.
This typifies why most of the fact checks from mainstream media organizations are worse than useless.. they're literally anti-informative. But left wingers get to keep feeling smug while they wonder why all the walgreens are leaving town...
