A third flash mob theft in a one-month span in Portland left a mess behind at a convenience store Friday.

Surveillance video showed unwelcome visitors enter the Max Mart and Deli in the 12000 block of East Burnside in Portland late Friday night.

Store manager Prakash Thapa said about 15 to 20 teenagers ransacked the store and stole multiple items.

"Some of them went toward the beer cooler, some went toward the candy section and some of them headed for the milk cooler," Thapa said.

Portland police said a man and woman joined store workers in trying to get the teenagers to leave, and at one point, the man threw groceries at the mob. Several fights broke out, according to police.

Thapa said his two employees tried to stand their ground.

Because, to some business owners, spending a dollar means spending a dollar. They do not consider the dollars that could be saved or earned from that willingness to spend a dollar.

Personally, if I saw a group of yutes coming to my store door, the door would get locked. By coincidence, I had to use the bathroom.

This situation calls for a good 12 gauge pumpgun.

Watching them all try to go through the door at one time would be a thing of beauty.

“Some of them went toward the beer cooler,...”

Geez, it’s a good thing there wasn’t anyone hurt as a result of the teens drinking the beer—the store owner probably would have been sued.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA Unwelcome visitors. that's the best description yet. Youths, teens and now unwelcome visitors.

Next it'll be 'former friends'... or some such bull. Did you hear about the black mob that went after two reporters? Their own paper didn't want to report it...

Yeah, I said on the Texas Board that this is setting the stage for many more potential Travon shootings...

But you have to understand that this is what they all want...

Since they got nothin’ else to do...

I have not looked yet, but let me guess the demographic...

If I’m wrong, I’ll apologize.

No apology needed, regrettably.

Welcome, n00b.

Laugh all that you want, but this is a precursor into things that are coming...especially in the cities.
