Look at it another way. You know those “masters of the universe”? Their wives spent a lot of time in places like SF’s Union Square, Westfield, Nordstroms. They shopped at Saks and Nieman Marcus, and, yes, Macys. They did lunch downtown.

And etc. across the board all over the SF Bay Area, and Los Angeles.

This general deterioration of the social facilities for these peoples families has hit them hard. That’s one reason why so many of the important people are leaving NY and California.

Newsom Witnessed Shoplifting at Target. Here's What Happened When He Notified an Employee. [02/02/2024] Posted to FR by lightman

According to Mercury News, Newsom shared the story before the start of a Zoom meeting about a mental health measure he's supporting.

In the meeting, Newsom said he was at a Target store and waiting in line with a cart when he saw another customer walk straight past him without paying.

"As we're checking out, the woman says, 'Oh he's just walking out, he didn't pay for that,' I said, 'Why didn't you stop him?' She goes, 'Oh, the governor.' Swear to God, true story, on my mom's grave. 'The governor lowered the threshold, there's no accountability.' I said, 'That's just not true,'" Newsom said in the video, adding that the girl added, "we don't stop them [shoplifters] because of the governor."

Nothing is locked in Florida except our criminals... our stores look the same as they looked years ago.

I’m praying Trump can turn things back to sane.

IMHO this was the planned course under Democrat control during the Obama administration. They didn’t count on Trump reversing things. Now, under Biden and the cabal that is controlling him there has been an acceleration of the planned decline of the US.

[the shoplifting in SF is totally out of control]

I think you just described every city in the United States of America.

Probably happening in Europe and Canada too. Wouldn’t surprise me.

it could have a purposeful element yes

but it needn’t have

when prices go down, there are always going to be more buyers

in fact, I’m thinking of buying the big 8 story Macy’s store that’s closing

I’ll call FHA today to see if they’ll finance it for me

Mrs LS says Macy’s started to change its intended customer a few years ago from upper class adult women to teens.

I see all this insanity and it shows that Matthew 24:7 is indeed going to be fulfilled.

Because people keeping playing the race card all day long, every day of the week.

Sigh

They’re definitely in trouble and that makes them more dangerous. More and more people are waking up and they’re scared of that.
