Gang of 70 Loot México State Supermarket en masse
Mexico News Daily ^ | 3/24

Posted on 03/24/2020 1:16:30 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Alarm caused by the Covid-19 pandemic is creating security problems in México state, where a gang of over 70 people looted a grocery store in the municipality of Tecámac on Monday night.

Dozens of men and women rushed a Bodega Aurerra Express supermarket and ransacked the shelves and displays, leaving them bare in their wake.

A video shared on social media by a neighbor of the store showed the empty shelves and random products scattered on the floor and out in the street.

Outnumbering employees and security personnel, the looters took food, alcohol and even money. Some employees were reported to have made off with some of the products not taken by looters.

Municipal and state police arrived on the scene minutes after the looters left. One of the officers was reported to have chided onlookers for not having tried to stop them, saying it was their responsibility as citizens to do so. No arrests have been reported.

Calls for widespread looting in México state have been making the rounds on social media for the last few days. Various Facebook groups, with names like “Covid-19 Looting” and “Looting 2020” have been promoting the idea of mass pillaging events, claiming impending food shortages.

“You can’t leave us without food,” said one post.

Apparently so. Or chilruns or “teens” or something.

Thanks for the open borders, Boosh, Pelosi, Schumer and Barack!

In America citizens think it is their responsibility to stand by and video the incident while shouting World Star! World Star!

Won’t be long, I imagine. I would guess Chicago, Houston (certain areas), Los Angeles, NYC).

Mobs of “teens” wilding.

“They stole the Fritos, the Nachos, and the Cheetos!”

More seriously, it raises prices, but if this keeps up (here as well as there) markets will become armed, with controlled entry, bars, and guards. There really isn’t any other way to keep everyone fed.
