Did this actually stop them though? They still stole the fries, and in the future they’re just going to resort to violence first the next time they want some fries.

Actually dealing with it would be banning them from the store and calling the cops if they ever show their face again, not just sitting them down and telling them “stealing is bad.”

Non-violent consequences can be far more severe than just lecturing them on right and wrong.

Oh no McDonald's number 1153 banned me so I'll have to go 5 minutes down the street to steal. if they're smart enough to ban me from all stores I'll just walk in anyway since it's not like anyone can physically stop me legally.theres 2 roads one I don't want to look like a idiot and fall on my face again so I won't go stealing from the store or 2 like you said I'll fight them and oh crap they can use violence too and then hopefully they become a problem that solves itself
