Horrifying surveillance footage shows the moment a gang of hammer-wielding thugs swiped upward of $110,000 in jewelry from a California mall.

Actually, in a very good way, although unwittingly, they are doing society a favor.

Nobody needs expensive items such as jewelry, sneakers, handbags, or cars for that matter. If you want to be a vendor to the conspicuous consumer, then this is what you get. It’s wrong, but it is what it is.

I seem to recall that the San Jose PD had a radical leftist police commissioner and mayor, so it seems the chickens are coming home to roost.

It’s pretty obvious that the good citizens of Commiefornia are just fine with this. They keep sending the people responsible for this crap back to office. As a result, I can only say, “Get used to it, Stupid. You brought this on yourselves.”

I'm convinced Soros is enjoying Satan's protection. But the clock is ticking. Soon the Kapo will meet his fate:

Was anyone able to get a description of the black people who did this?

I’m sick and tired of reporters making assumptions. It’s quite possible that some of those suspects self-identify as women.

This happened a week ago and this is the first time I heard about it - from a British newspaper.

THANK GOD the “black face of white supremacy”, Larry Elder, was soundly defeated. As a wannabe cracker, he might have arrested these upstanding youfs.

I’m sorry, but we are going to have to start hanging thieves.


Don’t know if there is enough rope, high tree limbs, lampposts - besides it takes too long to set it up, while that’s in progress another bunch of looters loots another bunch of stores : point is hanging is too slow. Bullets are quicker, cheaper and offer opportunity to catch up and overtake the supply of looters.

And “horrifying.”

What’s horrifying is Soros (see #11 below) and all of the marxist DAs he has installed all over the land who aid and abet this lawlessness.

What’s horrifying is that there are actually people who think we are better off letting criminals roam free to destroy society.

Where are the the famous sheriffs and lawmen of the late 1800s who cleaned up many lawless towns? Pat Garrett, Bill Tilghman, Heck Thomas, Chris Madsen, John Coffee “Captain Jack” Hays, Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp, Morgan Earp, Virgil Earp, Dave Allison, Bat Masterson, James Butler “Wild Bill” Hickok. Our lawless towns are starting to look like the 1880s.

We’ve had Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County and Sheriff David Clarke of Milwaukee County (a Democrat!). But we can’t name many otherstrict law & order sheriffs...maybe because the elected officials won’t let them do their jobs or oust them.

If jewelers were smart, they’d have plaster versions of the real thing in display cases, and keep the real thing at a separate location, to be delivered.
