This is the culture of inner city african communities. These are old world tactics brought from deepest africa. Do we accept this culture or demand that laws be enforced. Are we becoming a 3rd world cr*p hole like Zimbabwe? Watch this video.
Give me some examples of “flash mobs” like this in African cities.
Or you could just keep a Mossberg 12 gauge tactical riot gun behind the counter. 18 inch barrel with a sliding stock. Is that too over the top? LOL!!!
Depends on how many of them there are ;)
Plus I don’t think in Minnesota I can shoot them for shoplifting.
However.. the first round in the ceiling or floor will likely get them out the door.
Kind of. They simply closed the store in that area. Other stores where “out side of the delivery area”
I will say that pizza guys rarely get robbed any more. when I ran pizza’s I’d be fired if I was ever caught with more than 20 bucks in cash (unless) I dropped off a cash order.. then there was wiggle room) or if I had my wallet with me. They did TONS of spot checks (follow me out to a delivery or check when I got back) I kept my license in the car and locked my wallet/money in a wall safe at the store. Dropped any cash I got in the safe too.
at the end of the night, open up the safe pay for the pizzas and kept what was left. (tips)
Plus with 90% of the people paying with plastic the delivery guy is hardly worth sticking up.
I still would not work at a dominos that delivered to the bad part of town though.
Just the sight of that gun would make most kids take off running.
hope I never have to find out. I’ve been trained not to draw unless I intend to use it if needbe.
Please note also, the store owner/manager was white.
Can you provide any statistics on crime in africa, the land where slavery is still practiced, the incidence of venereal disease is the highest in the world, and cannibalism was a custom not more than a decade or two ago?
hutus and the tutsies
Trying to analyze “Crime in Africa” is only slightly less inaccurate than trying to analyze “Crime on Planet Earth”.
Africa has 47 countries, about 2,000 languages and about 3,000 people groups (tribes). Some areas are safer than others. Some areas & cultures are safer that some US areas & cultures.
One list of “Homicides per 100,000 Population” shows 12 African countries with lower rates than the USA rate of 5.0.
New Orleans murder rate is 52
Newark is 29
Oakland is 26
Washington, DC is 24
Baltimore is 37
Kenya is 3.6
Sierra Leone is 2.6
Cameroon is 2.3
Uganda is 8.7
The Bahamas & Brazil are 22
Jamaica is 60
Mexico is 15
BTW I’m not “looking through rose colored glasses.” My family & I were ambushed by Ugandan rebels in 1986. In 1980, I melted part of my helicopter engine getting away from Tanzanian troops firing at me because their commander forgot to show them my clearance. My wife & I also have shared water with an AK-47 armed tribal warrior we encountered 30km from the nearest town, then who thanked us and continued on his way.
Trust in God.
Be aware of your surroundings.
Stay away from nasty areas unless you have superior firepower and flexible rules of engagement.
Trust in God.
Hutus v Tutsies? Stats omitted??
Yes, you’re right. Some do. A friend of mine from Kenya — wonderful girl — says that this is just “the culture.” They go in and politely ask that you just do nothing while they take whatever it is they want. Then they leave.
That’s it. And you can do nothing about it. They take what they want and you just stand there and you don’t complain.
We ARE certainly a third world country where this is occuring. Could be some illegal African immigrants ring leading ...because this is what they do.
