I didn't see ANY liberals rushing the store. Don't understand how you know their political lean. As far as not being stopped by police before they did it, it's kind of ludicrous to think the police (if fully funded) would have been there at that 7-11 to stop it. Seriously.

Why must you spread division and hate? The vast vast majority of all people don't like the lawlessness that we experience from time to time. What good does it do to "blame" it on liberals?Yeah they’re all Conservative law-and -order types.
Do you really believe the stuff that comes out of your mouth? Holy cow.

As if these punk kids had any political affiliation. They're def more likely to say FJB than vote for him.
Partisan hackery of the highest order here. Be better?

So when I see a bunch of white nationalist I guess it's cool if I talk about how Republicans are doing so and so...
Really bad form ekbeats.

Conservatives have spent the last 10 days talking about defunding the federal police. And now all of a sudden they are all law and order types. Funny.
Yes, if you start seeing a rash of white nationalist crimes that are directly related to Republican policies, then you absolutely should call it out.

I think we can officially put this term to bed unfortunately. In my view, these "sides" simply pick and choose what they when they want to be this. It isn't a core principle any longer. It might be that it's always been that way, but for a while, the actions were matching and had me fooled. They don't any longer.

Wow, so the fringe element of the democratic party represents all liberals huh?
How sad for you.

The last couple of weeks put the final nail in the coffin of the "party of law and order" myth.

Ekbeats stepping in for Gordon in his absence. He will need to work on his formatting and timestamping performance though.
Really? Seems like a phenomenon that developed after the decriminalization of shoplifting.

Nope. But I can't prove it.
Are you referring to California changing the dollar amount limit between misdemeanor and felony?

After 32 years in a retail environment, I can safely say it's always been an existing phenomenon.

it's as if people only started to do crime when the felony/misdemeanor threshold was raised.

This was on the national news, so I guess it is kinda important to see what is really going on.

A AR-15 by the store owner solves this issue.
The Z Machine
Footballguy
Yes, but likely creates other, more dangerous and potentially deadly ones.

I agree that a bunch of store owners with AR-15’s is not ideal. But if aggressive police enforcement and jail time isn’t the answer either…. Then that recipe imo is more dangerous and deadly than doing neither. All youve done is embolden criminality and violence and we see what it leads to.
With regard to armed store owners I think it’s fair to ask…more dangerous to who. Are there any known incidents of store owners shooting shoppers that were not in the act of committing some sort of crime. I don’t like the outcome here but again if enforcement is conducted in such a way that it’s no longer a deterrent…pick your poison.

In a situation like that, you can’t worry about what happens in an hour, you may not be alive.

I think @ekbeats had taken unfair criticism in this thread. He is not arguing that the flash mob robbing this store was made up of liberals. Nor is he arguing that liberals approve of this sort of behavior or robberies in general. His point is that recent liberal policies with regard to law enforcement have made these sorts of crimes easier to occur, and that our current increased lawlessness is due largely to these same liberal policies.
FWIW I strongly disagree with this POV. I think our judicial system is badly in need of reform and I applaud the people who are attempting to do so. Furthermore I believe that the increase in crime and lawlessness had much more to do with changing socio-economic conditions than it does to any changes in punishment, most of which are still in proposal stage. But ekbeat’s argument, while wrong, is a legitimate one and doesn’t deserve the mocking and mistreatment he’s received here.

Some 28% of the signatures were deemed invalid. Terribly interesting result, considering in the presidential election less than 1% were set aside.

Really weird to see crime, looting, chaos happening at a location right on the border of Compton and Inglewood. Never would have guessed that area might be unsafe or prone to this sort of thing.
edit: or am I the only one who mapped the location?

I saw the area,. Unfortunately a area that is short on cops.
