I had a slight problem with this though:

You wear an item of clothing you know still has the security tag attached to it, rather than return it to the store... What ground do you have for suing them when the tag breaks?
They attached it to the garment. They failed to remove it when the garment became yours. Your removal of something they deliberately placed in your clothing that shouldn't have been there caused injury. Your fault for putting it there and failing to remove it. This is America. In some places here you can be held responsible for a death if someone drinks alcohol you serve them then they drive home and kill someone. Even if you tried to stop them driving. It's all about insurance and blame. Take cover, it's headed your way.....

Bitter? No, sadly. I might be willing to kill for a decent pint of bitter

Shawnee, why not call them, explain (truthfully) and ask them if they'd be willing to do it? Then yoiu have an "authorization" for rent-a-cop.
