Chicago police release surveillance video of suspects seen looting store in May
Fox News ^ | September 2, 2020 | By David Aaro

Chicago police on Tuesday released surveillance video asking for the public's help in identifying a group of people who broke in and ransacked a store on the city's West Side back in May.

Video showed dozens of people swarming the West Chicago Avenue business, which sold electronics among other items, around 1:45 p.m. on May 31.

Many were captured taking whatever merchandise they could find over a roughly 25-minute period. At least one person violently kicked and shattered a protective covering under a counter that housed additional items.

The aftermath of the looting spree saw the store looking like a shell of itself. The floor was littered with items and packaging as well as shattered cases that previously had protected the store's merchandise. Walls that held up goods and electronics were stripped bare, with only a few items remaining.

Nike has announced that, in support of BLM, that looters will be able to exchange shoes for those of the correct size.

Heck, the fun-loving looters posted their own videos of their various sprees — no need to wait months. There are lots of these recordings floating around. The problem is twofold. First, the well-known “snitches get stitches” rule means nobody’s willing to ID the people they recognize. Add to that the fact that Soros-backed prosecutors will decline to press charges, and leftwing judges will let those charged off with a slap on the wrist . . . The entire exercise is pointless.

On a positive ID, when the police chief makes a request to an officer to go arrest the south Chicago resident: “You want me to do what????”

I think it was originally sarcasm. But even I’m not sure anymore.

How will looters ever register their products without a receipt from the store?

That’s some crackerjack police work, getting out a bolo from May, in September.

LOL. Funniest line today. Too bad it's probably true.

I don’t care if the looters happen to be of one race in the video-——this has to be used in TV ads.

Don’t agree with me?

Watch the real national TV discussion stories shortly: “Once again, peaceful protesters, in the tradition of Henry David Thoreau and of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, were again denounced by the white racist remarks of President Trump today.”

Many black people want law and order and are against defunding the police. If a few socialists, black or white, are upset by seeing ads of the looting and vandalism of stores, then it’s not a big voting bloc so forget them.

RE: Police getting out video and perp shots from May in September....

That post cries out for September Song lyric lines:
Oh, it’s a long long while
From May to December
But the days grow short
When you reach September
........
One hasn’t got time
For the waiting game
Oh, the days dwindle down
To a precious few
September, November


Same is true of Barr and Durham, the September days are growing short and the November election will be too late to avoid bloodshed they might have prevented by bring some perps to justice in DC. Letting them go doesn’t work.

Yesterday, Nancy’s defenders were making noises about how recording her getting her haircut with out her permission might be a crime. Perhaps the looters could pursue the same idea.

We should be seeing this on the new “NewsNation” on WGN (Chicago).
