I was just at Modell's Sporting Goods in Newton, Massachusetts. I was trying to quickly buy a youth football jersey for my nephew and was SHOCKED to find a $35 Tom Brady shirt padlocked to the rack.
I waited almost ten minutes trying to get an employee to unlock it for me. Finally one came and I asked him about the locks:
"Well, Modell's doesn't want to have locks on shirts in some locales but not in others......"
This store was on the border of Needham and Newton - two extremely white (Jewish) and affluent towns outside of Boston - hardly hubs of retail theft.
Political correctness run amok.
