Is it BDS if you steal? (lemmygrad.ml)

If someone shoplifts something on the BDS list, does that still qualify as boycotting the brand? Is this a stupid question?

I don't know enough about how "loss prevention" works to say this is foolproof but if you bring a personal shopping cart in and pack your groceries into that, it's easy to fit a few more things that you just forgot to pay for at the self checkout...

(My only concern with this is because you're stealing some things and buying others, if they see it happen on cameras they can figure out who did it based off your membership or payment details)
