Bear with me on this. I took the liberty in spotlighting someone who represents, imo, a major part of the problem. It's the leniency of politicians like Newsom which is ultimately responsible for the descent into barbarism we are witnessing. This organized looting is similar to a problem our forefathers had at one time. It was called piracy and they hung pirates.

“And though the state typically classifies thefts under $950 as misdemeanors instead of felonies”

Problem wrapped up in a nutshell...

I’m amazed the commie libs can’t figure out this 3rd grade problem.

Look Newsome... the law is the law and you have no right to go after looters and flash mobs who each take less than $950.

Deal with that.

or maybe you could call an emergency sesssion and get the law changed.

Why don’t you try that?

“Bear with me on this. I took the liberty in spotlighting someone who represents, imo, a major part of the problem. It’s the leniency of politicians like Newsom which is ultimately responsible for the descent into barbarism we are witnessing. This organized looting is similar to a problem our forefathers had at one time. It was called piracy and they hung pirates.”

It’s called Third Worldization! It’s the utter breakdown of the law, and the ability of the rich within such a feudal society to find ways to avoid the violent chaos.

Neistat was right in identifying a pandemic of crime in Los Angeles as Third Worldization. In a recent online exchange, YouTuber, Casey Neistat vented his anger after his car was broken into and the contents stolen. Los Angeles, he railed, was turning into a “3rd world s***hole of a city.”

The predictable role of the smug, indifferent Third World rich, who master ignoring – and navigating around – the misery of others in their midst.

In a medieval-type society of two rather than three classes, the rich in walled estates rarely worry that much about thievery. Crime is written off as an intramural problem of the poor, especially when the middle class is in decline or nonexistent.

Such impoverishment pales in comparison to the encampments of present-day Fresno, Los Angeles, Sacramento, or San Francisco. Tens of thousands live on sidewalks and in open view use them to defecate, urinate, inject drugs, and dispose of refuse.

Violent crime is now soaring in America. But two things are different about America’s new criminality.

• One is the virtual impunity of it. Thieves now brazenly swarm a store, ransack, steal, and flee with the merchandise without worry of arrest.

• • Second, the Left often justifies crime as a sort of righteous payback against a supposedly exploitative system.

So, the architect of the so-called 1619 Project, Nikole Hannah-Jones, preened of the riotous destruction of property during the summer of 2020: “Destroying property, which can be replaced, is not violence.”

Third Worldization reflects the asymmetry of law enforcement. Ideology and money, not the law, adjudicate who gets arrested and tried, and who does not.

Nation & State” ^ | 12-4-2021 | Victor Davis Hanson

So, Forget It, Jakes/Janes! Relax! It’s Now, Not Your Town!

Even, If you didn’t vote for this, it doesn’t matter! Your vote has not counted nor been counted for decades, if ever.

Investigate and if it is discovered that any of the stollen goods are being used to fund street gangs nail everyone involved with RICO charges.

And though the state typically classifies thefts under $950 as misdemeanors instead of felonies, Newsom urged local law enforcement officials to be more forceful in going after organized retail crime.

How? The criminals arrested are back out on the street before the arrest reports are even made out. If Newsom is serious about this other than deflecting blame from his own government (he isn't), then he'll (1) change the law, and (2) prosecute and jail the violators. I'm sure nobody could have thought of that one...

They keep letting them out with no consequences. That means they’re going to keep doing it. Democrats are evil.

gavin and his hate-America left wanted this. They want certain people to take whatever they want from their “oppressors.” It is 100% intended.

Is that $950 per person or per day or per store?

Even in Republican, formerly safe Spokane, there are robberies and shootings downtown, in the best part of town. Not happening in my neighborhood, and we do have a couple of very good restaurants nearby. The best one is, of course, downtown. Hope they move.
