Enforce loitering laws on those businesses' property, which I'm sure the owners would support, and the problem is dealt with. If the owners do anything on their own, they're straight fricked.
Who is going to enforce those laws? The police? They don’t have enough now, and the left wants to defund them more.
If the store owner IS successful in getting police there, the thugs simply melt into the darkness. When the police leave, they have a mob go through grabbing stuff from the shelf and running.
The employee working there is likely making $10-$15/hour. They’re not putting their life in the line to stop them. And you’re right, if the store owner fights back, they’re prosecuted and their store gets burned down.
Ultimately, what it comes down to is the stupid voters put her in office. Until they feel enough personal pain, they won’t vote differently.
Sucks for the store owners to shut down, because most if them have everything invested there.
But what choice are they being left with?
