Sounds like what they did in Chicago earlier.

 

Before self-service supermarkets, customers came in, asked the proprietor for what they needed, and were handed them over the counter.  We're almost back to that.  There's nothing as ridiculous as progress.

My guess is the stores are using profiling to determine whom to open the cases for.

An ABC reporter admitted his bosses advised him not to appear live from downtown San Francisco on Wednesday because the area is “simply too dangerous.”

Chief national correspondent Matt Gutman told viewers that his crew was instructed to film their 4 a.m. GMT “Good Morning America” segment in a separate part of the city while reporting on the shocking closure of the Westfield Mall.

Though the shopping center — the latest in a swath of Bay Area staples to shutter their doors — cited decreasing foot traffic for its shutdown, Gutman suggested that the city’s rising crime could be to blame.

“The mayor noting that several metrics of crime are actually flat or down. But it is worth mentioning that we are not at Union Square or the Westfield Mall this morning because we have been advised it is simply too dangerous to be there at this hour,” Gutman said.

When people are not arrested or prosecuted for crimes, it seems that would lead to lower statistics.
