Now thousands of people know that if you are a teenager from another
country, if you do something different from how it's done in your
country, you will be dragged down to the basement and threatened with
the police. You won't have someone come and explain it to you, they
will wait until you leave the store. They won't ask you to pay for the
"damaged goods", it's the police and criminal prosecution.
