lol of course it's a Safeway.

Also: Every Walmart in my city has these. They don't do shit. 🤣 First, they arent even mechanically strong enough to stop you pushing past them, and second they are the same height as a subway turnstyle and easier to hop over.

They're also only installed at the entrance; people still just steal and exit through fire exits throughout the building.

The photos for these ones in the article and the ones being installed in DC are glass and more like the subway ones and chest height.
