I'm not sure.
But it will be interesting to see if a bystander will shoot a kid with a stolen bag of Doritos or not.

YouTube commentary is the equivalent to what's written on the wall in the toilet stall of a park bathroom. You don't let stuff like that actually get to you, do you? And if you don't know, the kind of nastiness in Youtube commentary can go ALL directions.

Police say the so-called “flash mob robbery” happened around 1:45 a.m. Saturday.


The group of about 24 people entered the store, stole snacks, drinks and other items and left after about one minute.
Police have identified several of the suspects through surveillance video."






The video is far more telling of the degree of the looting and the perps involved, than the above barely detailed "article" presents. Also according to the store owner from other sources, the Police sat in their cruisers outside of the 7-11 and made no effort to arrest anyone, relying instead on the video camera to make arrests later. Imo - I wish the Police good luck with that considering all of the hoodies being worn, might aswell just tell the looters job well done and not even bother arresting people.

Btw, it is odd that these Flash mob incidents which are becoming ever more common are hardly ever reported on by the MSM...If it was White guys [instead of Black guys] looting stores and attacking people nationwide in massive mobs, maybe then it would be reported ? PC gone mad it looks like to me.

The solution starts at the 5 min mark. Great movie BTW.

Give them all felony rap sheets and ruin their lives. They deserve it. You reap what you sow in Aero's America.

Playing the race card and blaming those who have nothing to do with the situation does not help.

What would YOU suggest we do to combat this problem?

Maybe we can think of a solution instead of pointing fingers

Here is a video where the anchor did mention the race of the offenders

You know what would help..if black people would stop the insanity and just call it what it is. Stop hiding behind " here come the white nationalists and their cousins calling us out of our names." It is what it is and it can,t be hidden. Overt black bigoted racism.

Slightly 'old' news but awful nevertheless. I lived in MoCo for most of my life. Some stats in case you didn't know:

Montgomery County is a very very rich county. It has one of the highest median incomes in the country.

BUT

It's also a very liberal county.

Hmm.
