I don't know how general this was with Kroger (City Market, King Soopers, etc), but about 6-7 (?) years ago they dispensed with armed guards... at least in the K.S. at 38th and Sheridan in Wheat RIdge. One of the now-unarmed guards commented that they hoped they didn't regret that decision, and that it came from "corporate." (He was a qualified Firearms Instructor, and moved to another merchant armed guard post.)
I joked that if he needed a gun, to holler for me and I could slide my BUG across the floor to him.
Anyhow, that's the background to my question, which is "does Kroger (or any company) have any liability as to what happened because they did away with the armed guards?"
