Many Stores Closing Due To Democrat Inspired Looting

[Cubantripod]

It's always entertaining when alarmists only read the parts that fit their narratives. There's no mention of politics except for this part which proves the opposite of what the OP intended.

Asked about the more recent surge in retail robberies last month, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki appeared to blame former President Donald Trump, saying President Biden has proposed more funding for local police than Trump did. She also blamed COVID-19, saying the pandemic is “a root cause” of the rise in looting incidents.


No politics, no mention of POC, no mention of Democrats, etc.

How about when apologists ignore the parts that don't help their negative? You conveniently forgot the following:

In October, Walgreens announced that they would close five locations in San Francisco, citing rampant shoplifting across the city. The company said that it increased security measures at Walgreens locations “across the city to 46 times our chain average” in an effort to combat San Francisco’s “organized retail theft” epidemic.

Rampant shoplifting which Democrats do not support or encourage which is a lie right in the thread title.

No one said you supported it, but you facilitate it.

CVS is closing stores because they oversaturated markets and they announced the closings before the string of smash and grab robberies.

Lol, another patented vettefail thread.

 

[pointless]

CVS can fuck off anyway. fucking evil company.

Lol, another patented vettefail thread.

The article says Walgreens is closing stores in part because of shoplifting.

No one said you supported it, but you facilitate it.

I do? Thank you for letting me know what I facilitate, control freak.

So the thread title and OP still fails.

this is probably the easiest fail homeboy's ever done.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

After perusing today's threads I am convinced that the RWCJ here has collectively failed hugely. No, BIGLY. Did they forget how to read? How to comprehend their own words?

They fail every time they start with the GothBoBo level lies and histrionics. (Which is every fucking time)

Most of these stores will close in minority neighborhoods, in Democrat-run cities where Democrats and the BLM have convinced gangs of POC that ripping off capitalists is a form of reparations due them from past history and have told them they can steal as much a $1000 worth of merchandise without being prosecuted. It won't be long and the absence of these stores in minority neighborhoods will be blamed on racism and white supremacy.


These Stores Are Closing Due To Looting And Lost Profits
Major cities have been hit by a wave of "smash-and-grab" robberies.

As looting continues and lockdowns return, many retail companies have announced recently that they are shuttering some locations that have become simply too expensive to maintain.

Major cities have been hit by a wave of “smash-and-grab” robberies, where organized groups of looters attack store employees and escape with thousands of dollars in merchandise. Organized retail theft now costs retailers across the country a grand total of about $65 billion per year.

Meanwhile, some areas announced this month that they are again implementing stricter COVID restrictions, including mask and vaccine mandates, over concerns about rising virus cases and the new Omicron variant. Early data has pointed to the Omicron variant being less lethal but more contagious than the Delta variant.

Some of the country’s major pharmacy chains have said that they plan to close a number of stores.

In November, CVS announced that it will close around 900 retail locations over the next three years, which amounts to about 9% of its 10,000 stores. CVS locations across the country have been affected by looting over the past year and a half, but the company cited more customers shopping online in its decision to close stores.

What stupidity you exude...




EVERYBODY knows! This is the work of the 1/6 Republican mob...


They travel well.

Lol, 5 stores are closing because of the shoplifting.

How will our economy possible survive?

 

[Champakian]

Clearly our morals have not.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Rampant shoplifting which Democrats do not support or encourage which is a lie right in the thread title.

It was left-wing Dems that reduced the penalties for stealing up to $950 to a misdemeanor. It was left-wing Democrat DA's that refused to prosecute misdemeanor theft. Ergo, it was Democrats that knowingly allowed this to go on.

 

[Champakian]

And if they are sentenced for a crime,
the sentencing is always too harsh...

What I see here is nothing but apologies,
just like when rioting was mainly
peaceful protesting.


:shrug:


But the peaceful protesting of 1/6
is the equivalent of My Lai...

lol now you're the Prince of ASSumption.

Trump was warned about the insurrection by his own people and let it go on. Ergo, Trump is responsible for the inssurection.

A trumptard speaks of morals?

[pecksniff]

One reason and one reason only: It's true. In many ways, leftist rhetoric is considered more authentic the more detached from reality it is.

You won't find that in the pages of The Nation or Mother Jones or In These Times.

Not because of smash-and-grab. Any retail business could survive a certain level of that. If a business grows too expensive to maintain, that's a matter of an unsupportable ratio between sales and rent.

 

[pecksniff]

Yes, and that is just one chain. These lootings only take place where they are protected or encouraged by the left or Democrats, in blue cities and towns.

The Dems run practically all cities, even in red states. Crime in cities is more likely something to do with the urban environment.

 

[pecksniff]

And if they are sentenced for a crime,
the sentencing is always too harsh...

Almost certainly, considering the general incarceration rate.

 

[pecksniff]

Well, the rioters and looters didn't lack for Dem encouragement and support last summer, did they?

Yes, they did.

 

[GothTalk]

Not because of smash-and-grab.

Yes, because of smash and grab.

Any retail business could survive a certain level of that.

But not sustained high levels of it as a result of (D)umb fuck policy.

If a business grows too expensive to maintain, that's a matter of an unsupportable ratio between sales and rent.

Yes, but when the expenses are 100% government incurred, by stupid fuckers trying to (D)estroy the place.

The Dems run practically all cities, even in red states. Crime in cities is more likely something to do with the urban environment.

No, it's blue shit holes.

The more progressive, the shatter they are.
