I guess they believe we are supposed to just stop shopping. Is this how they are going to explain the very soft economy? Maybe this is why they are allowing it to occur.

People want and deserve to feel safe. Thank God SCOTUS is getting back to the original thought processes behind the creation of the US Constitution.

Now, a person has to be real careful purchasing products online with so much of the ORT's stolen goods being "re-sold" online.

Much of it is organized and directed by drug cartels. It's well past time to start using force against this activity.

It's funny to me how many people are oblivious to the consequences of their actions (or lack thereof.) The whole, defund the police, movement was purely designed by marxists to weaken the public trust in our local governments. That combined with covid lockdowns and the pitting people against one another all lead to an erosion in the public contract between citizens and the state.

We are seeing the repercussions of leftist ideology. This is what they want. They want to destroy our society, so they can "build back better." It's all part of the plan. Weaken the dollar, create civil instability, and distrust of traditional institutions. When people start going hungry they will welcome their communist overlords... At least that's what they hope.

Of course you are free to imagine your own reality, but I was in San Francisco over Christmas and one of the dinner gatherings I attended included an assistant US Attorney in San Fran, who described the connection between the organized shoplifting and the Honduran drug cartel that controls the illegal drug trade in San Francisco. The cartels tell the addicts what they want stolen and the addicts go and steal it. The cartels have vans that then pick up the stolen stuff and pay for it with drugs. It isn't random, thus the correct use of the term "organized" in the OP.

Caused by shitty progressive lax laws and enforcement.

One day you people will learn.

Its a willingly created situation by lawmakers with no spine.

They are allowing it to occur to keep minorities out of prison. Thats their only motive.

If only there were organizations to combat such actions, you know the ones your jerkoff Party wanted to defund.

I wonder when Tboy was writing if he put any thought into the policies that create this organized crime mecca.

All of them come from the people he votes for.

You noticed he hasn’t stated what he would do to curb the theft or to condemn the policies that allow it to happen

Why do people keep repeating this idiotic nonsense?

California didn't grant any sort of immunity. Shoplifting is still a crime. They just raised the level of the divider between misdemeanor and felony to $950. States adjust this figure ALL THE TIME, to reflect inflation.

California's delineator is still FAR lower than many states. In fact, 40 of the 50 states have a HIGHER cutoff than does California, including the VAST majority of the deep-Red South. LINK. Looks like the mean is about $1200.

In Louisiana, the cutoff is $1,000 ... essentially the same as California. In Texas, for instance, the divider is at $2,500 (tied for the highest). The reddest major state in this country is clearly not a "liberal shithole" just because it treats smaller-dollar thefts as a misdemeanor.

A bit of advice. Don't just repeat stupid talking points. Stop and think. Maybe even do 10 seconds of research.

And now someone will assert that I am "defending the libs" by simply showing you that you are acting like a histrionic child about a big nothing burger.

They'll blame everyone else but the perps.

People arent stealing to eat. Theyre stealing so they don't have to work.

They trumpet their desire that we Understand criminals and their plight (obviously fueled by racism and white supremacy) but refuse to comprehend that criminals know what the fk is going on and act accordingly. So no consequences means open season on criminal acts.

That is absolutely hilarious coming from you. Stunning you would even put it in type as well.

Ok. You have two choices here.

1) based on your claim. You can admit you and your party is completely and totally wrong on open borders which allowed in the Hondurans,

Or (should be “and)

2) you can go the other way and still face the reality that your party is completely responsible for not only excusing retail theft.. but encouraging it.
