I think just about every problem like this can be traced back to massive illegal immigration.
“I think just about every problem like this can be traced back to massive illegal immigration.”
In the neighborhood of ten years ago, so long before the massive illegal immigration we see due to the current Leftist regime in Washington, I was in the hair care section of my local, rural Walmart. There was an employee manning the area which is almost unheard of. Her job, it turns out, was to lock and unlock the black only hair care products. I asked her about her job, and she nodded at the cabinet saying, “if I wasn’t here everything you see there would be gone before noon.”
The theft problem is because the local governments won’t enforce property rights. I think that’s because if someone has property, they stole it from someone else and that someone else is, by virtue of not being Caucasian, downtrodden by The System, which exists to keep the Evil Caucasian patriarchy in power. (And, in their minds, anyone who isn’t black who eats fried chicken and watermelon are culturally appropriating authentic black culture.)
Virtually all of the civic breakdown is caused by, accelerated by, and advocated for by our government. These are people who probably swore an oath to uphold the law.
When I was at my local gas station this morning to buy the Sunday paper I talked to the attendant. Upscale neighborhood. He said 10% of patrons steal. From candy to wine. 10%. It ain’t minorities or illegals. Nice theory, though.
One example of many I’ve personally witnessed in the home grown urban community of Cincinnati. Mind you, this was eight years ago before things really got bad.
A lady fills up a 40 gallon plastic trash can on wheels that the store sold with various items to steal. An employee confronts the thief and is stabbed three times in the face with a screwdriver. The mother of four perpetrator was quickly caught and prosecuted. She received suspended sentences and probation for the felony assault and various other charges. Nary an illegal in sight.
As long as these retailers continue to donate huge sums of cash to democrats and woke, leftist causes, they will get no sympathy from me. Reap what you sow and enjoy your descent into bankruptcy. Wake me up when they start donating to law and order republicans and non-woke law enforcement causes.
