    I have no idea of what you are talking about with your attempt to excuse the rampant theft waves hitting retail stores. Yes your desperate attempt to justify and defend these criminals have to resort to Trump again.

    Why don't we just get rid of all laws because Trump was President using your rationale as flawed as they are, you seem to excuse EVERYTHING because of your claims about Trump.

    And if under a grand, "Kick um loose", or as the looters see it "Black Friday sale"

    Totally disagree. If I was in charge I would tell them to not let the door hit them on the way out. What are these high end stores going to do? Move to Tennessee? I am tired of taxpayers dealing with these issues. We already spend of ton of tax payer money on law enforcement and incarceration. I really think it is time to let the free market forces take over. If you are selling 10K purses and bags you need to provide levels of security. I am no expert but hire security personnel and make sure the doors a closed after each customer enters. Have an electronic lock that is opened by the security person as a customer leaves. This will eliminate snatch and grab. I have been in the LV store in Paris and all bags on display are secured by metal cables. They have appointments to see and try out expensive products. Bottom line hire a security firm and have experts come in and tell them how to make the business more effective. If a bag cost 10K and you raised the cost 5-10% that pays for a lot of security for the business. This should not be a taxpayer issue and as a taxpayer I am tired of subsidizing these companies security. I believe the taxpayers have already provided the necessary level of support.

    You’re the one who made don’t snitch a black thing when last I checked trump isn’t black and rewarded all those who refused to cooperate with pardons. Don’t you think that sends a message?

    Then why are you here?

    To criticize everybody else's perspectives and opinions without ever having to defend your own?

    Your quick to tell everybody else they're wrong, but even faster at deflecting from defending your own perspectives.

    Eight people? And what felony charges, they made it over $950 to be a felony and from what I have read these criminals watch how much they are stealing. And of course they ended cash bail so everyone will be back on the street and months later charges will be dropped because of the "sentencing inequities" that put more blacks in jail than white. Heck I heard Congresswoman Talibe this week call for letting all the federal prisoners out in ten years and getting rid of federal prisons.

    The customers who buy those expensive bags live in big city areas.

    They should just leave and let the blue cities rot. San Francsico was once one of the world's truly great cities. And a great walking city. Now it is a festering cesspool of human waste, discarded hypodermics, and feral humans terrorizing the decent folk just hoping not to get carjacked. Years ago, I walked from Fisherman's Wharf to my funky rental in the Dogpatch, right over the spine of the city at 2AM. It was a five-mile walk. There's no way I would do that today - even armed. **** it. Let them sink into the ooze.

    The only one criticizing and working with wet straw is you. It's somewhat entertaining but juvenile regardless.

    This seems to be a problem San Francisco which is a city run by democrats.

    They made the policy that permitted this.

    We've been seeing videos for months where people are looting Walgreens and so forth because they're not allowed to stop them.

    It's strange that this is coming from one of the most unequal places in the country and it's extremely on equal because of the voters there. And other places that share its inequality are Portland Seattle York there's a common thread here.

    I am asking you to please source where Democrats have altered the law and made shoplifting not a crime.
    And I'm not seeing sources.

    The accusation was made that Dems want theft to be legal.... and now it seems you admit that they still want to have to be illegal, but the penalty is less serious.
    So the accusation from that GOP poster is simply a lie.

    Oh but then when stores do the logical thing and abandon these high crime areas they're accused of racism.

    Cuz you know it's racist to observe reality and base your actions on logic.
