That’s not Pelosi’s business to “do something about.” She’s the damn speaker of the United States House of Representatives. Is this a joke?
What are any of your representatives doing about the shoplifting and crime in your areas? And ALL of you live near plenty of shoplifting and crime if you live in a town of at least 10000 people.
And they are most likely Democratic districts. Shop lifting is everywhere, but when it empty stores, there’s a huge problem.
I believe the majority of the country wouldn’t boycott, but will support them.
The problem is the ones that support these thieves actually believe that they "need" the items they take to survive. At the worse they think these brazen thieves are stealing items so they can sell them to buy food or maybe school supplies for the upcoming semester....
It will be a sad day when the neighborhood stores had had enough and close their doors for good or everything is locked up behind a counter. The Dems will then complain that it is like a prison commissary where you line up, order your item, pay for it and then it is placed into your hands.
Who would want to live in a neighborhood like that? I suppose when the universal income comes around these guys won't have to steal for a living?
Nope and i loath her and think she is a despicable human being. But its the mayor and city leaders who are responsible. Senators and Congressman represent their States at the Federal level they don't make individual state policy. As much as i think some of them would like to and as much as they keep trying to take federal control over individual states rights.
^^^ This. There is plenty to criticize Pelosi for without focusing on things that aren't her responsibility.
I love Nancy Pelosi, but if there's one big mistake she made was turning the Presidio military base into a park. Opponents at the time wanted to put low-cost housing on that site. If that had happened there'd be fewer homeless on the streets.

That you "love" the odious , lying old hag speaks volumes about your , and not in a good way.
It’s weird, in California, they were big on defunding the police, but now are crying for private Armed Security to save the day…. Nothing against Armed Security or Security Officers in general, but they’re not cops or even trained BEYOND the very basics. IMHO, would make things far worse.
Also, armed security isn’t cheap and if this is going to be the new route liberal cities end up taking, the cost of their service will be passed onto the people, on top of our monthly inflation increases.
I’m not a rocket scientist or ever stayed in a Holiday Express hotel but Common Sense tells me that let the cop do their jobs and make the liberal DAs and Court System do theirs, this would solve most of this problem.
Personally, I’d think it would be funny if these thief’s were confronted by masked individuals, with baseball bats, who were there expressing “their rights” and beat these thieves into the ground. Honestly, I think the country is now fast approaching this since No Justice leads directly to Vigilante Justice.
Pelosi bares some of the blame, along with Governor, Mayor and their City Council for their failed “re-imagine” justice system.
BUT!! Most of the blame goes to the voters within these cities…. Because they voted them in and often, keep voting for the SAME group of losers AND wonder why “sheet” is still screwed up. Honestly, every time I hear any politician use the word “reimagine,” I know that a train wreck is about to happen.
You don’t think someone as powerful as Nancy in the federal government can have a big influence on the local mayor and DA in her city?
Get real
Name a Speaker of the United States House of Representatives that got involved in local crime matters in their district? Tip O’Neil? Newt Gingrich? Who????
