Why did our elected Texas Republicans punish Sid Miller for protecting us from gas pump skimmers?
For decades the Texas Department of Agriculture checked the accuracy of gas pumps with no problems.
When TDA employees were finding more and more gas stations
with skimmers on the pumps Sid made videos about the danger.
And Sid had the locations of the violators made public.
OMG!! The station owners freaked out!
This cannot be!! And they spread money around Austin to stop Sid.
Why would the Republican we elect represent credit card skimmers?
How did they stop Sid from protecting us?
A total bullcrap story:
They cried that Sid’s signature on the TDA label on the fuel pumps was too large. Sid also included a phone number you can call the TDA to report any problems. The TDA would have an inspector at the location within 3 business days.
Our elected Republican legislators stopped Sid by taking away the gas stations and giving it to another state agency that did not have enough employees around the state to handle the workload.
Why are gas stations not responsible for the crime that occurs on their property?
They are open 24/7, have cameras, and I assume the gas station gets their money for the gas that was purchased.
How are they not responsible?
If you allowed theft on your property would you be held responsible?
