There'd be guys sitting in the backrooms of random stores. If a robber/robbers tried to loot the store they'd come out and open fire. That crap stopped quickly after a couple of them were turned into dog food.Nahannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01794735154506829829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-90117937678120009442021-12-01T16:41:12.555-06:002021-12-01T16:41:12.555-06:00@Aesop I have heard from friends in L.A. it’s happ...@Aesop I have heard from friends in L.A. it’s happening down there too. I have another friend in Minnesota that says the phenomenon is catching on there as well. I think any place run by democrats is seems as criminal friendly. <br /><br />I was at a Safeway recently and there was a guy blatantly taking stuff off shelves and putting items into bag knowing that no one would stop him. Other customers in the store were livid but the employees were powerless to do anything about it.SQThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251030404220909306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-4104305188286865372021-12-01T16:27:16.876-06:002021-12-01T16:27:16.876-06:00It's only Frisco, which city is also the Count...It's only Frisco, which city is also the County of.<br /><br />Everywhere else in CA, looters are shot, and shoplifters are prosecuted, like always.<br /><br />When Frisco is entirely a desert, devoid of life, it'll be a good start.<br />We needed a replacement for Alcatraz, so it may as well be the entire city.

As someone who resides in the suburbs of the Big Urban Center of which you speak, I have heard nothing about a flash mob here. And I pretty much stay up to date on the local news.

And were shocked that it wasn't a 60 day murder like in NO. It was 25 to life. <br /><br />I seem to recall a country that made bank robbery a capital crime. They caught a robber, tried him, and hung him in less than a week. Lots of news about it. And bank robberies dropped to almost nothing.<br /><br />Eccl 8:11 Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil.

Key element is their being allowed to do so in uniform and fully armed. One point made was how long would businesses tolerate having to pay twice for the same service, once in taxes and again in direct payments.<br />Will mention that during a period a few years back when car jacking became so common there were few if any cases of it in Alabama. And in Florida jackers preyed exclusively on rented cars hired by travelers coming into airports. Message being jackers avoided areas where there was a high probability that the driver might be armed.<br />In totally unrelated news (snerk) CVS recently announced the closing of 900 underperforming stores.

The next year, they hired SWAT officers to stand guard on the roof. After they shot the third villain, robberies dropped off to nothing.<br /><br />We know what works.
