You can't make this stuff up.


When the rioters were burning small mom and pop stores last summer, it was "mostly peaceful" and the fault of the police.


BUT in California....THREE high end stores were ramshackled and the Democrats have had enough....the LA Times headline.


High-end retailers such as Nordstrom and Louis Vuitton have been targeted in Northern and Southern California, raising alarm among authorities, politicians and retailers.

Complete story here in the SF papers. Governor Newsom to crack down hard on "rioters" that attack the stores for the rich!! Calls it unacceptable!!!


https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/...t-16643106.php


Oh wait, it turns out he is just mad because HIS STORES are targets!!!



"Newsom said he understands how difficult these thefts are for the affected stores, and said his own businesses have been broken into three times this year. Newsom founded a hospitality company called PlumpJack that includes wineries, restaurants and retail stores, which he placed in a blind trust when he became governor. His office said PlumpJack Wine & Spirits in San Francisco’s Marina District has been broken into four times since the start of the pandemic and its sister store in the city’s Noe Valley neighborhood was broken into over the weekend."

Live with the rich, own stores with them, and invest like them and you will be protected from harm by the Democrats.



Otherwise your on your own.

And this...

Experts caution use of 'looting' in describing rash of Bay Area smash and grabs

Don't refer to these retail thefts as "looting" because that's racist!

Cops should not aggressively engage these gang looters. Just show up and then let them all safely run away.

If you injure one making an arrest it could start massive and violent leftist riots and ruin your life as well as a section of your city.

If you catch them, soft on crime laws will slap their wrist.

The risk reward says don't engage them if you are a cop.

Hmm. I guess looting only happens when the angry children on the left think they have the right to steal and ransack businesses when something hurts their tender feelings.

Now the leftist mobs think they can just go into any business at any time, whether it's a high-end retailer or a pharmacy, and take whatever they want and leave the place in shambles because there's no one to stop them.

The cops don't help because there isn't a justice system anymore. Thieves get away with it because liberal DA's and judges don't care about enforcing the laws. They let them go to do it again. Law enforcement means nothing if no laws are enforced.

The blame, however, belongs with the Democrat voters that put liberal mayors and DA's that were backed by George Soros in charge. They wanted a lawless liberal society and now they have one. I hope they enjoy their dead cities that will look like Armageddon after the animals get done picking over what's left of them.

I for one encourage the mostly peaceful pillaging of 100% of San Francisco retail establishments

Don't forget all the fixtures too.

Taxpayers must get what they vote for after all, karma.

The Flash robberies occurred Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Some got caught; most got away.

But the police are also in a quandary over catching those looters.
There have been cries of racism because many of those arrested were Black. (Rodeo Drive lootings)

So the police cannot win no matter what they do.

I'm with you. Take everything. Keep it up. Go to many stores each day and take everything. This is what dems states want and encourage so let them have it. But don't come to my state and think you'll get by with it...stay in CA and rob and steal all you want.

Don’t worry. They will dismiss all charges for those who got caught.

There is something more dangerous here that's beyond party politics. There is also a trend of flash mob outdoor party of young troublemakers. This is done via social media. And the flash mob poses a challenge to local police, no matter where it occurs.

Conservatives on this forum attack California but 6 million Californians voted for Trump. At least Trump acknowledges us. There are enough conservatives in California to shift the balance in Congress, district by district. Should the Republican party really divide further?
