then why does that old greeter Fart demand to see my receipt, after I scanned every item and paid? is Walmart trying to give him dignity for "make work", and strip me of mine?

By law if you refuse to show your receipt, they can't forcibly stop you or touch you,
except for a membership store like Sam's or Costco if it's written in your membership agreement.
If they do detain you because you won't show your receipt, they are committing civil and criminal violations against you.
If you didn't take anything without paying, they can't detain you if you refuse to show your receipt.
They need cause to detain you.
Also, for any store to say you committed shoplifting, they have to prove 2 things: concealment and removal.
Now we return to our irregularly scheduled programming which it's this thread.
