And when Walgreens shuts the store down they will be called racist.

My first thought was that they would just close the store -- but what I found from a brief internet search is that 75% of their sales are pharmacy and 25% are retail.

They can just leave the retail shelves bare.

That idiot newscaster is a libtard, and libtards naturally identify with theft. Thieves are their brothers-in-arms. So the shocking remark is no surprise.

In Seattle this is called a ‘survival crime’ and goes unpunished.

Called "Mundraub" ("stealing for the mouth") in 19th-century German law - applied only to, e.g., a piece of fruit or a small loaf of bread.

Has since been stricken from the law books.

Regards,

“….Dokoupil claimed the man was probably getting something he needed…”
****************************************************************
What he “needs” is for that store and ALL other stores in that neighborhood to close!

Can somebody give me Tony Dokoupil’s home address? I’m going to stop by and see if he owns anything I need.

It may well be that the retail sales are the lion’s share of their profits.

When I worked in a grocery chain I learned that the markup on groceries was tiny, their profit was in the non-food items.

Recent two incidents:

Guess the “reporter” would say maybe they needed handbags to carry okra and collard greens back to their mother’s boiling pot on the tenement stove.

In style.

When all the Walgreens, moms and pops and other stores close what are the remaining residents to do for food and services? They will starve or move to the suburbs and the homeless criminal element will come with them. If the suburbs say we will accept the destruction of our community as well then they deserve what they get. They keep voting for these utopian leftist idiots who so far have got nothing right. Will these stores hire security which will knock the shoplifters brains out at some point? Gang security?

Until the remaining civilized people get fed up and say enough and vote out the leftist this will continue. That or vigilante committees are going to start forming and they will be called white supremacist even though I will wager there would be a lot of people of color who are just as fed up and had enough on these committees.

“ I mean, you’re not getting rich off what you take from a Walgreens, you’re getting probably something you need.”

I’m sure I won’t get rich taking your wallet so give it to me. I need it.
