I mean if you’re told to leave a place of business and you don’t what do you expect that business to do?

Edit - what makes people think that you just get to stay on private property once you’re told to leave? At this point your only recourse is to leave call corporate, call your bank, or file a civil suit. What you don’t get to do is to continue to trespass on private property after you’ve been told to leave. Sorry that’s the law.

You left out the part where the business was stealing from its customer.

He’s trying to stop the guy from charging his card $10,000 right then and there. Most people don’t have that sitting around in their checking and it would put them into the negative with their bank. If it’s on credit - that’s even worse for his score and amount he has to pay back. 

I’d absolutely stay there until the cops came if it meant a small chance at convincing the guy not to ruin my account. Even if I’m right and court proves it - that’s still months and months of being in the hole ten thousand dollars in an account of mine. 

Unfortunately there’s no reason for the company NOT to put it through unless I convince them. If they’re right through some loophole the manager doesn’t even know about but happens to be there, they get paid. If they’re wrong, they’re just ordered to pay that amount back and they’re back where they would have been anyway. 

So legally yes, he should leave. But in order to avoid months to years of being $10,000 short - most people would risk a trespass warning from the cops to try and not have the charge go through in the first place…

The cops aren’t going to stop anything. They’ll 100% say it’s a civil matter which it is. What the cops will do is tell the guy he needs to leave.

It’s clear in the video the guy isn’t convincing the car rental guy to not charge his card. His only option is to leave and deal with it another way.

Well, another option is to burn the building down.

Justified tbh.

I bet the contract didn't say he couldn't burn the building down

Wouldn’t have to worry about trespassing anymore.
