Unbelievable surveillance video captured flash mobs dashing into store after store and running out with armloads and sometimes entire racks of sporting goods.
It has happened at three different Sports Authority stores in the Chicago area.

I wonder who they voted for in the last election.....
Holder’s people (Obama’s sons) are getting busier these days. Why not, nobody seems to want to stop them.
Holder-sanctioned reparations, baby... let the good times roll!
“Sporting goods”? Is that the new euphamism for weapons? (Can’t watch the video at work)
Weapon Chicago? Think about it. Mostly team shirts and jersys that could quickly and easily be sold on the street.
If they were “his company stores”, he’d post 1-2 guys and waste the punks w/ .45cal Tommy Guns or 12ga. It would end very quickly after 1-2 funerals.
Those aren’t flash mobs, they’re just some thieves.
Watching societies slow, but steady break down. Have to wonder if at some point there isn’t some minor event that creates a major dam break of societial structure.
Gotcha! Too early - maybe I should have more tea before I post! :-)
Exactly! Part of the reason of my clarion call for people to prepare.
When caught, they should be very brutally flogged.
No different than what happened at WalMart in LA when the EBT system froze.
At least Jindal is going after the criminals. Let’s see if the Godfather even lifts a finger.
Black Monday?
Notice that the “news report” carried no identification information or descriptions about the perps. They question unconnected people on the street about what they think. But NO questions asked of employees or other witnesses about the perps.
Used to be the news would include that sort of info so as to help in the investigations. No more unless the the perps are white.
That tells us all we need to know about the makeup of the perps.
Well, the Christmas shoplifting season is getting closer you know.
“urban Food Desert” - term describes how grocery stores mysteriously avoid inner cities. IS IT ANY WONDER? Why spend half your revenue on security? Why worry about restaurant customers getting robbed in a mass stick up? Why offer pizza or Chinese delivery THERE?
Easier to simply avoid opening a business among such animals.
When you’ve got blatant crime, you need brutal honesty in dealing with it - you won’t find that in even the local MSM.
Point one - the term “flash mob” has ambiguous connotations: the punks who ransacked those stores don’t spend their weekends gathering at the Daley Center for impromptu renditions of Handel’s “Messiah”. If the jerks in the newsroom can’t come up with a catchy term for these criminals, they should at least call them what they are - organized gangs of thieves.
Point two - this stuff has been going on for years, not just in Chicago but all over the country. To date, of dozens of cases reported with videos, I haven’t seen one case perpetrated by a gang of Hispanics or gang of white trash - there’s a pattern in the ethnicity of the perps that dare not be mentioned by the press. So at least instead of interviewing a bunch of whitebread yuppie types about these crimes, maybe the news readers might ask some of the community leaders in the local black community what they think of this stuff.
And finally, Sports Authority: hire some guards with dogs to hang out at the entry points. Dogs are great with decent customers of any race, but can be really intimidating to the kind of jerkweeds who pull off this sort of heist, especially when those dogs sense something isn’t right.
Just supplementing the ole EBT card
