In a shocking incident at a King Soopers supermarket in Arapahoe County, Colorado, an employee was fired for simply doing what any responsible citizen would do – filming three thieves stealing over $500 worth of laundry detergent. This injustice has conservatives across the country shaking their heads in disbelief.
Santino Burrola, a former military officer and all-around hero, spotted the shoplifters in action and immediately sprung into action himself. Armed with his trusty phone, he captured the criminals red-handed as they made their way towards their getaway vehicle. Burrola couldn’t help but express his disbelief, asking, “Really bro? You gotta resort to this? The economy’s not that bad.” His witty banter and quick thinking were truly a credit to his character.
NEW: A Colorado supermarket employee was fired for filming three men who stole more than $500 worth of laundry detergent from the store on Father’s Day.
This world has gone insane!
Why is Democrat controlled Colorado so accepting of criminals? https://t.co/xTdkq8rYus

As the thieves hurriedly stashed their stolen goods into a Black Chevrolet Trax, Burrola fearlessly followed them and took note of their license plate. Not content with merely stopping their dastardly deed, he shared the incriminating footage on TikTok, hoping that someone in the community would recognize the perpetrators. And boy, did it work! The video went viral and garnered over 1.5 million views, proving that conservative values resonate deeply with the American people.
But what did Burrola get for his outstanding courage and commitment to justice? A suspension and eventually, an outright termination. King Soopers had the audacity to invoke their strict policy that prohibits employees from intervening in shoplifting incidents. Can you believe the nerve? What is this world coming to when a hardworking patriot like Burrola is punished for doing the right thing?
The supermarket chain released a statement expressing their disappointment with the increase in retail crime and the impact it has on their associates and customers. While they claim to prioritize safety and have measures in place to prevent crime, it’s clear that they have lost sight of the true heroes among us. Employees like Burrola, who risk everything to protect their community, deserve nothing but respect and support.
Thankfully, the criminals are not completely off the hook. The police have one suspect, Jorge Pantoja, in custody, facing theft/shoplifting charges. However, the fact that the other two suspects are still at large reflects the systemic failure to prioritize public safety over political correctness.
This story is a stark reminder that there are forces at work seeking to undermine the very fabric of our society. Ordinary citizens like Santino Burrola are being silenced and punished for simply standing up for what is right. It’s time we rally behind these heroes who put their livelihoods on the line to protect our communities. Let’s demand justice for Burrola and send a resounding message that we will not tolerate the suppression of conservative values!
