If I lived in tese areas I guess I would go shopping this way seeing as it is 100% legal.
Not sure how any retail store will stay in business as everyone figures this method out.
Especially shopping for a car or a house.

The Dems will respond by crying to their friendly media and shedding crocodile tears about inequity and "Pharmacy Deserts," and then try to it blame it on corporate greed, racism and "white supremacy."

They also want to ban the term "looting".

Flame throwers might be extreme.

But a tanker full of sewage or skunk oil with a water cannon type sprayer might work for crowd dispersion!


We have in our armament a crowd control device that does nothing but make the skin feel hot and uncomfortable.

Lower the limit to $5 and watch the shoplifting go away completely, no one wants a felony record for shoplifting, expensive trials maybe but they only need to send a few up for a couple of years. People that do not fear the penalty for theft will steal, spare the rod spoil the unlawful.

It has become Flash Mob Shop lifting, the high end department stores are being hit by flash mobs of up to 80, the store in SF got hit for over $100,000, drug stores are also targeted.

The "new" part is it's being done by small armies of organized thieves and, if caught, there is no penalty for anything they steal, smash or break.Because the thieves are limited to $950.00 per occasion today's thieves can legally steal tens of thousands of dollars worth of goods every day as long as they do it in stages of no more than $950.00.

Do the math, forty or fifty thieves loot the same store at the same time and they run away with half a million in merchandise in less than 4 minutes and not one of them can be charged. That my friend is new and brought about by some crazy progressive politicians in need of votes.

I don’t think that is what he said this type of slap on the wrist to criminals fits beautifully with the liberal agenda.

I wish all those who are complaining about this had half as much concern about white collar crime, estimated by the FBI as costing around $300 billion annually. $300 billion!!!

David, you write clearly and succinctly, you back up many of your arguments with reasonable sources, you are a calm voice and don't seem to get overly upset with people, you don't resort to insults and name calling... it's a real shame that you are a voice for the wrong side!

Well, thank you, John!
