George Floyd Discount (noun): A criminal act in which an individual steals something that does not belong to them, and while others are fully aware of the theft, they allow the thief to keep the stolen item due to fear of retaliation from the thief or their associates. This term specifically refers to situations, often in the context of social unrest or protest, where individuals involved in theft are apprehended by law enforcement but later released without consequence, despite sufficient evidence to prosecute, often due to political, social, or public pressure.

Example Sentence:

During the riots, many were given a "George Floyd Discount" as authorities released looters without charges, despite clear evidence, out of fear of worsening the tensions and violence.
