Wow. I didn't know that.

I've been to Atlanta maybe 4 times in my life although I was there last summer. I remember thinking that while not nearly as bad as L.A. that the traffic was absolutely terrible.

of course they want it swept under the rug...

liberals (fascio-socialists) mission is take away guns for legal citizens, make everything unsafe for businesses, then swoop in and nationalize (socialism) all business...... just like Maxine Waters wanted to nationalize BP (btw BP is British petroleum, she wanted to nationalize a foreign company)

That doesn’t matter. The numbers matter to liberals in power.

Police shouldnt be responding for petty shoplifting all the time, its a waste of resources.

Is it really worth it to have 2 cops come out to arrest or cite someone caught stealing something under $10.?

Besides that, shoplifting in general (even fuel drive offs) do not negatively effect a companies profits as much as you would think. the company I work for did a study on this years ago and found the impacts on P&L were insignificant.

I imagine that's what takes up a lot of Faux's "news", stories to the drooling goobers in the "heartland" (or "real murikans") who live in towns with more livestock than people and need to be reminded how scary all those big cities are, what with all those crazy Democrats and all them colored folks living there!

Story ends, someone starts banging away on their keyboard.

HUH? What does this have to do with anything?

Are you blaming immigrants for the shoplifting?

Are there still places where you can fill up and then pay for gas ?

In CA at least everywhere I’ve been you have to pay first .
