Seems like Mother Nature is saying exactly that to the young'ns with an earth quake and a hurricane at the same time.

Either that or it's the aliens.

Determined Mobs of Thieves Ransack Upscale Stores in Southern California – Police Reveal the Policy Fueling these Skyrocketing “Flash Robberies”
by Cullen Linebarger Aug. 24, 2023

...Determined mobs of thieves are now taking their crimes up a notch in California and a specific weak on crime law is to blame according to police.

The Daily Mail reported Thursday that a Nordstroms in Riverside was ransacked by thieves on twice within a month.

The department store, which is located on Canyon Springs Parkway, was first robbed on July 10 and again just weeks later on August 14.

The Daily Mail captured surveillance video from the two incidents. The first shows a group of men and women entering the store and hauling toward the handbag and accessories section....

How many times are you willing to be robbed by the same perps before you decide to stop them?

Reason I ask is this:

1. The costs go up
2. Supply goes down
3. Someone gets hurt
4. The store closes down
5. The insurance rates go up
6. Prices increase exponentially
7. Once they have completed those tasks, it's rinse and repeat at the next joint
8. And Then There Are None

Feel free to pick your number.

I hope they interviewed the gal in the video. She sure seemed calm and yet engaged with her phone, but not recording video. A scout?

9 Masked Smash-And-Grab Thieves Ransack Macy’s In Los Angeles, Shove Stolen Merchandise in Trashbags
by David Greyson Aug. 26, 2023

Smash-and-grab thieves ransacked a Macy’s store in Los Angeles on Thursday.

A disturbing trend of ‘smash and grabs’ is plaguing Democrat-run California.

Nine masked men in their early twenties entered a Macy’s in Sherman Oaks at the Westfield Fashion Square, filled up trashbags with merchandise and ran off quickly...

Doubt Demonirat Mayors and Governors are responsible for crime infested cities still?

Nordstrom is obviously racist.

Insurance covers loss.
Insurance costs increase locally based on all crime.
Supply decrease is drop in the bucket.
If the store closes, why would prices increase? Nordstrom's has seen no loss. Insurance pays for merchandise and damage. In other words, why would store close?
Why would prices increase "exponentially"? The amount of stolen merchandise is nothing compared to value of stolen cars on most days.

The reason this type of crime happens in big cities is because they don't put these stores in BFE, Alabama (or other low income locations). The perps don't go to CA because of weak laws on crime. It's because that's where the criminals live and that's where the stores are at. These aren't new criminals, they're just doing something different.
And they're being caught using standard police methods. What people claim "soft on crime policies" are the reasons this happens? Which specific policies?
Here is a link (which has other links internally explaining multiple aspects) that offers all the explanations needed to understand the issues(like smash and grab people sift through laws to find the lightest penalties, right?). An issue needs to be understood before it can be fixed.
The link also covers the no-cash-bail and other release type bullshit as reasons while showing CA laws are stricter than many states. for increases in crime.

There's no MAGA patriots looting these stores. All the looters are Democrats and Democrat voters. They understand the California $950 prosecutorial threshold. They understand the low bail or no bail policies. They know a jury of their peers won't convict. They know jails and prisons are overcrowded, which is conducive to early release. They know cops don't show up for trial. They know prosecutors won't file charges. California is attempting to ban merchants from taking action against shoplifters at this very moment. This is nothing more than "cause and effect." Eventually, California and other blue areas will become retail desserts.

You're right. There are no maga "patriots" except the ones jailed after after Jan. 6th. The people robbing these stores are just criminals who don't vote. They stay home like Georgia repubs during a senate run off.
Why would you think these people vote?

Did Dinesh D’Souza tell you that?

Criminals don't vote? That's a good one. Did you learn that in college? Many of these looters can and will vote for people who perpetuate their criminal behavior, such as defunding the police, no bail/no prosecution policies, and prosecuting merchants who take action. Why wouldn't criminals vote for that? Face it. These looters are Democrats and vote Democrat. They are your comrades. They are your brothers. They are your people. You own their behavior with your Democrat, blue city policies. I know it's a bitter pill to swallow but this is your baby.

... Crikey! ... Surely does seem that the Democrat party
is becoming the Criminal party...

... "Defund the Police" - and you see the Disaster!
Shoppes looted all over the country....

Surely seem that Democrat-run citys and townes have
a good bit of the crime... San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia,
and you can keep right on counting...

... Why vote for crime? ... Onley our liberal lads know for sure.

For the person that implies they aren't a citizen of the USA but we are generous enough to play here.

Find some near centered bias, highly factual sources that counter these points.
