The city attorney has threatened Target with nuisance fines for calling the police for shoplifting

Thanks for the link. Interesting view of the city attorney.
'If there’s no threats to any members of the public, if nobody is threatened by it … well, where’s the public harm?”
I'd guess the harm is where everybody who pays tax to fund public-sector attorneys, police and municipalities where they live and harm is price inflation.
Do attorneys know nothing of supply and demand?

City attorneys are probably terrible law students. I am sure she asked one of her employees if a nuisance charge was plausible.
Nice to encounter SN user who isn’t triggered by the policy of punishing criminals including homeless and illegal immigrants
