Oh, sure you can allow this to continue. You are doing just that by your sickening WOKE attitudes and votes for persons who care more about the perpetrators than the victims.
Meanwhile....
This is the black version of Kristallnacht.
This is the organized destruction of the white majority societal infrastructure, and the blue Democrat leaders are looking the other way and refusing to intervene, just like they did in 1938.

I wonder why the stores aren’t adopting a membership plan? That, and improved parking lot security, and it should curtail shoplifting. You can’t shoplift if you can’t enter the store in the first place.
Similarly ...
I saw an article a few days ago that some Albuquerque Walmarts are getting rid of some of the self-checkouts and replacing them with live checkers. Their reasoning: too much theft through the self-checkouts.

I stay out of the local Supercenter for that very reason — self-checkouts. They typically have one live checker and a line of people waiting. The local Walmart grocery recently renovated and replaced some self-checkouts with more live checkers.
Indeed, sadly.

Elect more Democrats.
“The community” prefers theft. Enjoy the everything desert.
this all started because the cops ALLOWED the streets to be taken over because of georgie floyds over dose death. Everyone of those Police Chiefs that kneeled and kissed their ass should have been fired immediately....
The people in the black community who don’t want to lose all their stores to civilized communities need to protest for MORE POLICE AND TOUGHER SENTENCING RULES.
The black community can’t count on white guilt to solve their problems anymore. The rest of us are sick of paying cops to babysit black communities and for fighting for these folks to have stores they don’t deserve.
And the ‘no snitch’ rule? That needs to be tossed. Better neighborhoods don’t protect their criminals... they turn them in. Either ‘get real’ or start paying for your own police protection based on ‘taxing by community’ .... where the neighborhoods with the most crime pay more in taxes.
what happeneds when you continuously vote rat and vote to defund the police
RE: I’ve seen cops chasing people carrying bags of products out of the mall....
Did he see Bigfoot and some space aliens, too?
When is the last time city cops were allowed to grab shoplifters? Followed by unlawful arrest lawsuit, civil court suits against cops and then back to allowing shoplifters to rush out with everyone watching helplessly.
Each city is different so maybe I missed the headlines about
“shoplifters arrested.”
Amusing way to reframe the crime by PBS site today:
“The National Retail Federation said its latest survey of members found that inventory loss cost retailers about $112 billion. But some industry observers say those numbers are not clear and may be masking other problems, including internal theft by employees.”
It’s true, most of the surveillance cameras are trained on employees.
“New York, San Francisco, Seattle & Portand.”
And the common denominator is...
“As a community” what do you propose to do about it? fire all the remaining police? Issue a sweetly worded communiqué requesting people please don’t ransack our stores?? Say,”Now yall be nice?”
“Walmart is really pushing on-line buying. Many products can be delivered the next day. In some areas they now have 2-hour delivery.”
I was wondering why Walmart, Tractor Supply, and Lowes keep wanting to ship things to me when we have local stores. It couldn’t be cost effective.
But you’ve enlightened me.
I think that there is a matter of scale here. Yes, there has always been "shoplifting" in stores; but, what is happening now is not really "shoplifting". It is grand theft, where an entire store is cleared out in a wave of "robbers of a certain color".
Don’t worry. The government will set up “free” stores where you can get anything you want and won’t have to pay, compliments of the people who actually go out to work.
