Shocking video footage shows two masked thieves using sledgehammers to smash up a Connecticut jewelry store in a brazen smash-and-grab raid.

Video released by Westport police starts with quiet scenes in Lux, Bond, and Green on Main Street at about 3:10 p.m. Thursday, with only a few people in one room in the store.

I see some people are still following Dr. Fauci’s COVID protection guidelines. I think that’s a bit much. But to each his own.

Yes, lots of rich people live there - mainly those who are a few million short of living in Greenwich.

Lots of jewellery stores are turning to fake copies of their inventory; the real stuff is in the back in the safe.

People I see wearing masks now are black people almost exclusively.

At home depot yesterday pricing weedeaters.....all of them along with chainsaws and leaf blowers were all locked up in cages......a damn shame it has to be done but at least it’ll hopefully keep cost of theft from being passed onto the consumer.

Wow, you’re going to make Phil Donahue mad, giving him the last name of his wife. Anyway, Marlo was a real cutie in her day. And credit to her for carrying on the work of her father with St. Jude’s Hospital.

“I posted yesterday that lately I’ve been seeing black people wearing masks everywhere.”

Black talk radio (yes, there is such a thing) tells them covid was designed by white people to target and eliminate blacks.

So they smash up a store but because the paste jewelry is worthless no charges will be brought.
