She couldn't give a rat's arse what's happening to the store keepers in her city and all the damage being done. She really does not care.

But put your feet on her desk - LIFE IMPRISONMENT.
Pelosi is not responsible for local store security, local police, county prosecutors, etc.

Here’s a major bust of a warehouse with $8 million in goods from CVS, Walgreens and Target.

The thieves are easily replaceable. Get caught? There are dozens ready,willing and able to replace. It’s all about
following the merchandise to nail the people at the top of the rings.

Thieves take advantage of woke 'misdemeanor' law...Residents in the business owners in the area cite a 2014 law that downgraded the theft of property less than $950 in value from a felony charge to a misdemeanor for the rise in thefts.

They do patrol and make their presence known.

Will Newsom ask for help from the FBI? Will the Silicon Valley tech companies cooperate with the police and federal authorities to find the people who are using social media to organize these?

I am guessing no, and more's the pity.

One squad car in the area would NOT have stopped that mob robbery.

So instead of singling, dancing or causing trouble, these "flash mobs" are looting and pillaging !!!
Yes it does have to do with lack of police presence, the radio is police greatest resource, that can call in backup and coordinate a tactical plan.

But most of all the blame lies on leftist politicians and enablers that decree that certain crime will go unpunished.

Obviously, they need to defund the police and hire more social workers.

Yes and possibly offer busses for the looters.

Because we used to be a civilized society. Our decay into Mad Max lawlessness is relatively new. Once people realized that the Democrat Party sanctioned widespread riots, it gave them a jump start on unsanctioned criminal behavior. We are now at that stage where the criminals are simply saying, "catch me if you can". Meanwhile, the George Soros DAs are refusing to prosecute.

Schumer, a career politician has never done worse than 66% statewide since his first Senate election 4 terms ago. Approximately 80%+ in the NYC metro (except out on LI).

He literally has never held an actual job where a private business or person paid his income.

Why wouldn't Sandy be able to win in NYC?
