Looters raid San Jose jewelry store as California smash-and-grab wave continues

A gang of masked goons smashed up and robbed a San Jose jewelry store Thursday afternoon, the latest smash-and-grab raid to hit a business in California.

Four suspects entered the Quick Service Jewelry Design in the Eastridge Mall and used hammers to bash display cases before fleeing with jewels, according to police.

The thieves eluded authorities, and the incident did not cause any injuries, cops said.

Two weeks ago, a flash mob raided a San Francisco-area Nordstrom, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars of goods. Days later, up to 40 thieves stormed into a Louis Vuitton store across from San Francisco’s Union Square.

I saw a clip on Fox News that the crime is creeping into Beverly Hills now. Suits them right.

Liberal DA’s. Slap on the hand, no bail, home for dinner. Wash, rinse, repeat if they’re even caught. You get what you voted for.

It is, and I know a lot of them, they are not going to put up with it and are actively taking measures to stop them in thier tracks. The follow home robberies are tough to stop, but they are out there right now looking for suspicious people hoping to catch them in the act.

Here is a video showing the extent of the problem in mainstream San Francisco.

Streets are empty, stores are closed and boarded up. Dead or very sick

Watch and learn

Its actually poverty. And systemic racism. These poor folks are starving and have no chance in this white-dominated society we’ve created. Oh, and global warming. They feel so hopeless given that we’ve only got 9.31 years left. Did i miss anything?

More precisely - fear of the unvaccinated. If everyone would just get the jab, the underprivileged would not have to resort to such desperate measures to provide economic security for their families. /s

I can’t believe the citizens, police and government officials are This stupid. These are organized events, not spontaneous, someone is organizing this using, most likely, some form of social media, and the cops can’t do anything about it???!!! Really, why is the world being run by incompetents??

A SMART store owner would simply add $1000 to the price of every item, but give a discount when paying by cash, credit/debit card, or check (if they take checks). That ‘discount’ would, of course, be $1000.

Pretty much the same thing done by doctors and hospitals when they knock 90% off of their ‘retail’ rate if you have insurance.

BLM is the root cause of black lawlessness. BLM riots proved that there is a thin line between between a civil society and anarchy. The predators won’t stop rampaging until forcibly stopped.

You can’t use that evil, hateful language.

The correct headline is “Well meaning wealth distributors assist poor with gifts as social equalization wave continues.”

Now, next time, I’ll have to report you.

They’re much smarter looters in CA, than the ones in MN that we’re looting the 99cent store.

That is incredibly sad. It must be far more crushingly sad for anyone who lived there and remembers what it was like before.

Nancy Pelosi's America.

Listening to the idiot woman “Homeless Advocate” was nauseating.

I saw a video like this of the Venice Beach area which apparently used to be beautiful and fun.

Leftists are the true zombies.

They destroy everything they touch.
