And their ideology is growing with younger voters. Latest poll show 58% of dems prefer socialism.


quote:

Gallagher said:

Most of what we saw were crimes of poverty-people who are stealing things like toothpaste, people who were stealing things like, you know, soap. And that means if you’re stealing those things, you need them. And we are choosing to protect billion-dollar companies, like CVS and Walgreens, over the people who are struggling to get by. So I would say that the true crime is that there is such incredible wealth disparity in this city that there are people who can be thrown in jail simply for having a biological need.

So killing someone that’s attempting to steal (ie protecting) your biological need is not illegal too right?

Send her to the Middle East, let her steal something there, and loose a hand. Then ask her about her revised understanding of "Biological Need".

That why you have to have laws, anyone can claim a need, or an excuse; that leads to anarchy

No that would be 100% illegal.


This is how society crumbles over night. Legalize theft, businesses close. People are robbed and people get killed. Nobody would be immune to that.

The incoming combustion between the everything should be free Marxists & the hardcore Sharia law folks will be glorious to see.

The majority of those items stolen from CVS or Walgreens are resold at the nearest flea market.

As long as using lethal force on people that steal is legal, I have no problem with it.

Now, now - we all just need to appreciate these words of pure brilliance courtesy of the folks who are “finally going to do socialism right”.

Local government officials will say stuff like this, stores eventually close, and then public health officials will still blame corporate greed for the creation of things like food deserts.

Lefties deserve nothing but endless mockery and ridicule.

Same message was sent to looters in the wake of Katrina.

Stealing food, good.

Stealing TVs, bad.

Perfect. And ask her how well she plays the violin. I love these idiots, they are going to kill the Democratic party.

No way people believe that bullshite. I’ve seen a good bit of theft and not once was it for toiletries or baby items unless it’s high end cosmetics to resell or like at Walmart now they get wiped out and formula is resold
