When mobs start breaking in to steal FOOD (not TV’s or Stereo) things are getting worse than we are being told.

In this case, I don’t think so. I think they wanted the flash mob experience, wanted lunch, and if caught, figured they weren’t going to do a lot of time for stealing a coke and a sandwich. It’s a different story if you do this in a jewelry store.
I was just in Chicago the other month and enjoyed my stay around the corner from the Magnificent Mile, shopping and walking up and down. I live in a small town now and it was a treat to go to the big city. I’ve been to the MM several times before and never in all my life did I think I’d have to worry about my safety while inside a store there. What is the world coming to?
I agree with the FReeper who suggested RICO charges. Hang ‘em high and discourage this kind of behavior.
