A large group of juveniles robbed a designer store in Georgetown Tuesday evening and stole $13,000 worth of items, according to D.C. Police.

The incident happened just before 6 p.m. at the Diesel store in the 3000 block of M Street NW. More than 20 people, police said, went into the store and grabbed several items off the racks, according to a police report. They stole four leather jackets, costing about $800, and an additional $12,000 worth of merchandise.

One person who worked at the store was said to have been pushed from him behind by someone in the crowd. The employee was not injured, according to police. Police described the suspects only as juveniles.

They’re flouting all customs of civility all right. They’re literally mad as hell and making no bones about showing it. They are quite honest in their evil.

White America has done better on the appearance side of things. But if that is ALL it has, something hollow is getting hollower and hollower and hollower.

we now have Interstates to BYPASS THEM

That is no longer a valid statement. They have blocked them before. All they have to do is piss off the wrong trucker. And it is going to not end like Reginald Denny.

When the social compact is broken by organized groups,
it is the duty of society to rid itself of same.
A healthy body does not encourage and sustain disease.

The duty to just whom, however.

Duties to God have this awkward way of playing out in mirrors.

Or to use the disease metaphor, you can either cut off the limb or you can administer the antibiotic.

However what if Jesus stepped up and offered to water it this time... this is not an inapt metaphor.

Everybody has to accept it, is the catch. We can’t have any prideful holdouts. The prideful holdouts case operated in the situation of the Civil War and so God said fine, if you want it to be your blood, your blood it is. It wasn’t for the lack of My offering a better way.

“That is no longer a valid statement. They have blocked them before.”

Sure, during a riot. I’m not talking about that, I’m talking about peace time (whatever is left of it). I’m just noting that unlike 40 years ago, we are FORCED to drive through their crappy cities to get from Point A to Point B, in most cases.

Maybe that’s the only thing that keeps us from forgetting about them altogether, though.

The antibiotics aren’t working. As for amputation,
maybe that’s why Obama is taking away the surgical
equipment from the police. Not that he likes blacks
particularly, but anarchy pleases him.

If Jesus couldn’t be bothered to step up during the Holocaust, I doubt you’ll see him coming to fix the US.

“#BlackFridayMatters”

Bahaha! My brother-in-law has a black lab. We are going to their place for T-Giving dinner. If any of the idiot libs start bringing any of this crap up, I am going to bring the dog in and say: “No, only BlackLabsMatter!”

That’s true. But aren’t we past blame by now? To paraphrase “The Great Santini,” ...

Bull Meachum don’t blame, he just fix.

Gee, I wonder why people are “racist.” I’m sure they’re just unreasonable, mean, ignorant bigots who don’t like the color of someone’s skin. Couldn’t be any other reason.

I'm a white Southern Baptist and I say it was a bunch of Methodist yoots running wild.

If there were boys involved, that would tend to clear the Visitation and NCS kids, as those are girls' schools. Could be the toughs from St. Albans or Sidwell though. Or rampaging Hoyas, if they were a little older.

From the article comes the money lines:
The incident comes after a group of merchants in Georgetown ended its use of a private messaging service that many retailers, residents and police officers had used to talk about people they thought were suspicious. There were concerns that the service was being used to racially profile people.”

My sympathies are greatly diminished because they shut down a working anti-shoplifting system because most of the suspected shoplifters were black - and the poor widdle PC infected merchants were afraid of being accused of racial profiling and even racial ‘microaggressions’!

‘Tis a good thing I am not their insurance adjuster, given as how they shut down a protective system.

Private homes are often armed, and home invaders may be shot.

That is why such trash predates only where their victims are not armed.

Presumably a lot like those "youths in Paris suburbs" who used to trash stores and set fire to cars!

Just practicing in advance of their assaults and killings of innocent Parisianers on a Friday night!

Paris called it terrorism then.

“Maybe that’s the only thing that keeps us from forgetting about them altogether, though.”

The other thing is when some meth-high white person figures that he will ‘delight himself in the inner city’ and ends up being a statistic...at which point people start to care about the rampant crime.
