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

Nine men stormed a San Jose shopping center January 3 and began smashing glass display cases at three stores as terrified employees ran for cover.

Vote better.

Behind closed doors I’m certain all the leftists consider this reparations.

Videos like this show the importance of getting your range time in.

A few well placed .45 caliber projectiles moving at around 900 fps would put an end to this crap pretty quick.

As a rather large former sca heavy, I am kind of wishing I was there to demonstrate some combat techniques to the thugs the hard way. But then in California probably would have been the one the district attorney would target...and heaven help anyone who stopped them with a concealed weapon.

The Democrats want this for all of America. They’re destroying us from within.

[George from New England]

Well they only asked for $999 when they ‘hocked’ the merchandise, so they are good, right ?

[Gaffer]

I feel SO bad for that fat boi at the end who hardly had the power to raise the 5 lb sledge and bust the glass. Din’t get nuttin!’ Oh, the humanity. One of the others should have stuck some bling in his coat so Blimpie wouldn’t feel so bad.....

And as you can see...Santa Claus is in the background paralyzed with shock.

“Equality and equity” has been reached....Democrats have managed to get wages above $50,000 per HR——Bravo! We’re all equal now!

"I talked to police and this is where I learned they're too soft," Orozco told DailyMail.com. "The police told me, 'we kind of have to let the thieves keep stealing because once they get to court, if there hasn't been enough stealing or damage, they're going to get too short of a sentence and they're going to be out and stealing again."

"That was just mind blowing. They're letting me know they're going to let these guys come and rob me and other stores so they can rack up the amount of theft [needed to prosecute]."

Keep voting Democrat, Californians. You get the government you deserve. You deserve it. Nice job, idiots.

Nice facelift for the immoral narcissistic one.

Why is it shocking ?

It's a Daily Mail thing: Things are either "shocking" or "hilarious". There are no other categories.

There are just too many of them and they aren’t afraid of having to go to prison.

Going to prison is a career move for them. They get to bulk up and learn new skilz.

This is the perfect example of why a person only needs a 10-round clip, since there were only 9 bad guys. /s

When do we get to divorce from CA & NY? Set a precedent for divorce from other such miscreant states.

Not an armed customer in sight, fearing for his life...too bad.
