A group of smash and grab robbers targeted a Virginia eyeglass store outside of Washington, D.C., stealing more than $20,000 in merchandise.

"Detectives are following up on leads and are aware of similar incidents throughout the National Capital Region," Capt. Frederick Chambers, Commander of the Criminal Investigations Division of the Fairfax County Police Department, said in a press release on the matter Thursday.

Police released video footage of the scene showing four Black males between the ages of 17 to 23 wearing gloves, masks, and hoods or hats while stealing from a MyEyeDr. store in Alexandria.

That’s because they aren’t focusing.

Yeah would be great to call them moving targets instead of thieves.

So, what use are empty frames without the persciption lenses?

Seems like an utterly pointless robbery.

“four Black males between the ages of 17 to 23 wearing gloves, masks, and hoods or hats”

The video camera was supposed to censor their skin color...wouldn’t want any of those unfair evil stereotypes to cause white racism...

“Seems like an utterly pointless robbery.”

The fence gets to deliver that message.

Always the same. The legacy of slavery and bringing Africans to these shores. Clearly it will eventually be a fatal mistake.

We doomed this country from the very beginning.

Wish I could go back in time and slap some people. "Do you have any idea what will become of this 300 years from now?"

A number of room temperature ferals will stop this.

“A number of room temperature ferals will stop this.”


You’d like to think so, but the result would certainly be riots, elevation of the feral to sainthood, and anyone who helped the ferals achieve room temperature, a lifetime in prison.

Michael Brown, the gentle giant, has a nice city-installed memorial where he achieved room temperature. The cop who shot him lost his job and is lucky to not be in prison.

Why is it that you never hear about a smash-n-grab, or a swarm of “Youth” looters hitting a bookstore?
