7th Walgreens closes in San Fran where shoplifting is allowed

A 7th Walgreen closed in San Francisco since they are victims of shoplifting, up to $1,000 in lost merchandise daily. The thieves come out in broad daylight to steal because they are never held accountable.

The shelves are bare. The store didn’t bother to stock the shelves.

“I feel sorry for the clerks. They are regularly being verbally assaulted,” longtime customer Sebastian Luke told the Chronicle. “The clerks say there is nothing they can do. They say Walgreens’ policy is to not get involved. They don’t want anyone getting injured or getting sued, so the guys just keep coming in and taking whatever they want.”

After a short stint of added security from two police officers and a squad car outside the store, the thieves returned amid the pandemic. Theft of less than $950 in goods is treated as a nonviolent misdemeanor under California law.

In other words, nothing happens to them. The thieves get a ticket. After the thieves take the goods, you can find them down the block selling them.

Even before Covid-19, San Francisco was a deeply troubled city. It ranks first in the nation in theft, burglary, vandalism, shoplifting, and property crime. Sixty cars are broken into each day. Typhoid, typhus, hepatitis A—are reappearing at an alarming rate.

Crime is increasing, housing costs are skyrocketing, and there are rolling blackouts.

I am Japanese.
It will continue until the Americans in San Francisco are wiped out.
If Trump doesn’t change the status quo, San Francisco will become a demon world …

Whatever happens there needs to stay there. The people that live there need to be made to stay there. They have kept the leftists in power, now reap the rewards.

San Fransisco is the ultimate Democrat utopia and is coming to your city if a Biden Administration is allowed to enter the White House.

It is not worth it. A local box mart employee followed some thieves in a vehicle chase and there was a fatal accident.
All local stores no longer pursue it. The police are deballed everywhere. You’re on your own.
The low level parasites are getting while the getting is good because soon the professional parasites are going to take it all and they will get away with it as people hope and pray that someone in government puts a stop to it.

They had their chance, about six weeks ago, so I have no sympathy for them. The left coast have been making their beds for years and now it’s time to lay in them.
