If the store owner had a shotgun he would still have his thousands and thousands of dollars

I remember the LA Riots after Rodney King.

The Korean store owners standing on their roofs with shotguns had the only places NOT robbed.

All cultures are equal, so the left tells us.

I bet it was someone else’s fault that these thieves were so brazen.

I actually witnessed a 'flash mob theft moment' at River Park, Kohl's in Fresno. They about knocked me over running through the side door. The store didn't even know what hit them. As they were dashing to their car, I yelled at them ... "You aren't getting away with anything... God sees you."

Hint: If you are shopping and see young men.. of a certain persuation... carry lots of clothes on each arm, and are pretending to get in line to pay... stick out your foot as they run past you.

Due to political correctness, we’re not supposed to jump to conclusions that these are black youth gangs doing this.

This type of thing was in the news in another city, Chicago, I think, recently?

Apparently the gangs are doing the flash mob thing and have no fear.

We have raised a feral fatherless generation of youth gangs in the ghetto. But due to political correctness, we are not allowed to call a spade a spade or really deal with this.

This will happen more and more. I expect more stores to be on lockdown, and admit people after you ring a doorbell to be admitted. I expect all of our costs to go up, as more stores hire their own private security to try to deter this sort of thing.

And we can’t say anything about the “baby mama” culture in which these “young men” were raised, because that also offends the sensibilities of the liberals.

In my opinion, the owner of the store should add one more piece of merchandise to the items he keeps behind the counter. Something by a 'designer' company like Mossberg, Remington or Winchester should suffice.

Heck, a basic Mossberg 500 is probably cheaper than some of the jeans he sells; and just the sound of a shell being racked in to the chamber will likely cause a mass exodus of "young men" from his store, resulting in a drastic reduction in the amount of items being stolen.

It happened to the poor dude in front of me at a 7-11 years back. Black dude was just hovering near the counter, clerk gives large change to customer, black dude steals and runs, poor dude didn’t know what happened and chases homey out for 3 blocks.

Actually, thanks to LBJ's 'war on poverty', and its various 'progressive' successors and assigns, I am pretty sure that the current crop is at LEAST the third generation (in a row) of feral fatherless youth gangs in the ghettos.

OR, what we are already seeing in Detroit...stores will simply close their doors and move along. There are fewer and fewer places to steal from...oops, I mean shop at. When they don’t even have a place left to buy food, it will be street justice.

Those store owners knew what day it was, “African-American Family Day” at the zoo, and they’re surprised? Close up for the day. Business owners in Myrtle Beach used to do it during the now-defunct Black Bike Week.

I didn’t see any mention in the article of it being African-American Family day at the National zoo.

When they have African-American Family day there next year they should have a cop placed every ten feet of the Zoo and a Swat team outside.

“I didn’t see any mention in the article of it being African-American Family day at the National zoo.”

Yeah, the media doesn’t want anyone drawing their own conclusions. They will do that for you.

It is always reported as “young men,” “youths,” “teens,” “flash mobs,” or any other euphemism an aspiring journalist can dredge up. Heck it is simply the victors sacking the city. As the Gaul said to the Roman: “Woe to the conquered.”

Yes, yes. You almost messed up when you called it stealing. It’s not stealing. In fact, these youths are simply cutting out the middleman (government) and collecting their welfare directly. We should applaud them for their innovation!
