Apple’s market cap exceeds the GDP of the bottom 171 countries in the world and you can bet their retail insurance policy dictates that employees take no action if the threat of violence is present. The average cost to treat a gunshot wound in the US is $154k.

Definitely not talking about employees, they are bound by contracts. But the customers they just stood there, watching. Not even a sign of doing anything.

It simply means that your safety isn't worth trying to save a few thousand dollars of some corporation's equipment.
