A FOX 11 investigation is exposing gangs of Chilean nationals who have been utilizing visa waivers to come to the United States for the sole purpose of burglarizing homes, businesses, and vehicles, and Southern California has become a top target for the criminals.
Law enforcement officials are calling it burglary tourism, in reference to the ESTA visa waivers the Chileans are taking advantage of to get into the United States.

Ping.
Thank God guns are Illegal in California, none of these tourists will get hurt.
WOW they spend return airfare, hotels and food in USA, and still make more money in burglary business! Has to be a big loot during burglaries.
So, put bullets in their heads and send the waste disposal bill to the Chilean consulate.
This sort of thing needs to be dealt with in an extreme fashion.
Guess they’re to impatient to go for the welfare dollars... talk about cutting out the middle man.
Build the wall. Change the VISA program. The two go hand in hand.

Next Democrat scam. Burglary tourism!

Well as long as they steal less than $950 per burglary, they’re ok, right?
if the roles were reversed, the Left would call it “colonialism.”
IIRC, California recently stopped enforcing “low-level” crimes, thereby encoyraging these type of schemes.

Hassine is the owner of Nuggets & Carats in Laguna Niguel, a jewelry store that had $1.5 million of its inventory wiped out overnight on March 24th after it was burglarized by a crew of Chilean nationals.Same MO, just before the burglary the were caught in the middle of...
As if we did not have any home-grown burglars.
