A reasonable response would have looked like firing the at-fault employee, compensating the victims, issuing an apology, and sending a memo to other employees clarifying policy. This would have been an appropriate apolitical response to such an event.
Instead they closed 8,000 stores and put their employees through critical race theory inspired implicit bias training.
It's worth noting that the company's official policy was and is to allow people to stay as long as they like without making a purchase, and that witnesses to the event described white people in the store doing exactly that at the same time the black man was arrested.
