What do these 'smash and grab' robberies plaguing cities such as San Francisco say about the participants?
The facile assembly of large mobs of miscreants to raid retailers in San Francisco, Oakland, and Los Angeles is even more alarming than it seems.
The events are novel and even a bit entertaining, posing only a minor challenge to law enforcement if police are permitted to intercede.
More important than the incidents per se, however, is what they may reveal about the participants.
Lootings have been widely reported, mainly on the West Coast. At Union Square in the heart of San Francisco:
“At least 40 thieves allegedly broke into a Louis Vuitton store on Friday [November 26], grabbing whatever they could before loading it into a series of cars parked curbside out front. The shoplifting caravan cut a swath through San Francisco’s high-end boutiques, creating a scene of chaos while stealing more than $1 million in merchandise.”
SNIP
Criminal flash mobs do not assemble spontaneously in an appointed location in response to a social media announcement. The perps arrive as a group after some preparation: cars have multiple passengers, license plates have been covered or removed, and full-face coverings for the perps far exceed the exigencies of COVID. Once the perps leave their cars and enter the target stores, however, planning is no longer evident. Bedlam ensues, the video records portraying controlled chaos in what might be described as an amalgam of the no-limit-shopping-challenge and a Black Friday at Walmart. The trespass is brief. Perps collect their prizes, load them into cars, and disappear in multiple directions.

I hope the mob doesnt find out that the rich libs are unarmed and totally defensless.
Unworthy of our pity and assistance.
Yes, ALL the other racial groups in the United States are sick of the 'pets' white liberal 'elites' have created out of the black community. WE don't believe for a second that these lowlifes are stealing a 'loaf of bread' so they can eat. Or their their 'grief' over the death of black criminals/thugs results in violence. Bullshit...
It's time to de-fund the black community.
I suspect black criminals and their looter gangs got tired of waiting for some lowlife black criminal to get shot while committing a crime - and decided 'Why wait for some bullshit excuse'... we can act like animals NOW. Guilty white liberals (who depend on us for re-election) will protect us and offer up excuses for us.
Cut out the middleman - 'we don't need no 'Gentle Giant' - we can loot without an excuse... 'cause we is lowlife stupid and vile and criminal... and too lazy to get a job or study... We is owed. We was slaves... ask the big thug democrats like Biden and his drug-addicted whore-monger son who shared billion dollar shakedowns with Daddy 'Big Guy' - next to the loot Biden took - we takin' noffing...
Eff 'em... change the laws - go after criminal democrats from the top thieves in the White House, to the corrupt press, to the black street looters..
Fire 'prosecutors/enablers', fire democrats in office... clean house.
Sadly, I saw video of two white losers walking out of a Home Depot in Portland with spools of copper wire.
That's the only example I've seen.
Used to be Holiday flash mobs sang songs and danced. Now they just commit crimes.
Also do not ignore the end, personal, goal: profit. Someone doesn’t go into a store and stuff a trash bag with 30# of high-end cosmetics ‘cause they think that will fix their pimples. They are gonna sell the stuff on — to get the cash to buy other stuff.
This stuff will end up on street-corner sales. If you buy from some shady dude/dudette you are feeding the problem. YOU also have a part in this.
This is not at all like some TWOT peddling bogus copies of DVD movies. Those are copied by the truck load from an original, single theft. This stuff is right off the shelf of some guy/gal who just had their business destroyed. And, if it was part of a riot, insurance will not cover.
Flash em..
The seeds the left planted are now shoosting.
Tagline.
Felonated peoples.
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.
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.

You voted for this B$!!! Even, If you didn’t, it doesn’t matter! Your vote has not counted nor been counted for decades, if ever.
If they know what stores these clowns are likely to hit, somebody could be stationed there to put the kibosh to it, couldn’t they? They won’t stop all of it, of course, but it seems like something could be done....unless the ones getting robbed really don’t care as they are insured???
Insurance premiums will go up in risky areas. Businesses will be forced to close or leave at some point.
