Do your research and find out if the owners are terrible people? Never been to a town hall but idk see what they support, how they vote (again no idea but there should be some way to get an idea of how they are politically, financially, or socially there). Look for how they use their moneyFind out ties they might have that are compromising. Plus there's insurance I think for stolen items and or you should've already taken shrink into account for your business expenses. So. Small businesses while I personally won't, are ok to be stolen from, in whatever videogame of your choosing. I suppose just be mindful of who they are and what networks they might have that you're not aware of and what consequences that could arise from taking from them.
