Mob and Rob
The incident comes as LA County District Attorney George Gascon and his office have come under fire for prosecutorial laxity that some blame for a spike in the city’s crime rate. He has been criticized for announcing plans to soften the state’s three strikes law, which mandates harsher penalties for repeat offenders.

The link to the above quote: https://nypost.com/2022/08/19/los-angeles-flash-mob-of-looters-caught-on-video-ransacking-7-eleven/


In a city, that only a few decades ago wouldn't be considered part of the USA, such a city was the recent scene of a flash mob that completely looted a Seven-Eleven store. Video clips show a mob of thugs, many of whom didn't bother to cover their faces. Who can blame them. The shithole that is currently Los Angeles allows for a certain amount of theft. It has a woke DA who has been protected from any recall by the people. It's police department, once on of the best in the nation has been completely emasculated. When they weren't looting or vandalizing the store, members of the mob were throwing merchandise at the traumatized employees.






The reporter mentioned that the mob entered the store as part of a street takeover. That's another thing that happens a lot in LA - "street takeovers!"

What kind of people would do such a thing, you ask?   Look at the film.

Why is all of this allowed in LA?   It's called "Social Justice."   It's actually a tenant of Marxism.


Who is ultimately responsible?

“Do you even know what wokeism is?”

The question was not directed toward me, but let me give you my take, if you will with my thanks. 

It seems today’s ‘wokeism’ is akin to the ‘red scare’ of days passed. An easily uttered phrase and yet difficult if not impossible to quantify. Meant only to separate and enrage, but with no solution to the perceived injustices attached, as the injustices are self-imposed and thus self-fulfilling. McCarthyistic in thought, deed, and ultimate demise…with the end not coming nearly soon enough.

You can call anything you wish. As the saying goes: "You are not the boss of me." You're the member swiftly death-wishing wokeism. Surely you can explain what it is you wish to see die, right? No?!  You dislike something you can't even explain? That's screwed up. Makes me question who told you to be offended by it.

Tell me what 'wokeism' is to you understanding (however weak) and I may start a dialogue with you about the fraud in conservatism today.

Thanks. So you suggest it is a 'throwaway' phrase used to galvanize combative conservatives to come out and join the 'battle' against liberals. Here is some more offshooting done by conservatives. I saw this one at CPAC this year:

CPAC to kick off under banner of 'Awake not Woke'

They asked their leaders to speak on matters like. . . get this: "Unwokeness." jrSmiley_122_smiley_image.gif

Of course, the 'new' soul of conservatism seems locked on whatever a group of liberals want for the country. . . run against that very policy or group of policies.

Or throwing out conventional conservatives who won't let you 'win' when your co-conspirators shit and piss and bust windows in the capitol building that will be memorialized in history book for all times. I can hear the complain now: No 'capitol insurrection' in school text books! Hide our stupid conservative acts of shame from our grandchildren!

And don't get me started on how you want somebody else daughters or wives to have babies they don't want and that you don't want and that conservatives damn well don't want! Or homosexuals who can't catch a break from conservative freaks who are all up in their 'grills' -cheesing and grinning, while planning to send them back to suckin and fuckin in the woods and bushes out back because you can't handle two people of the same sex having sex the same way many heterosexuals do!

Free?! MAGA socialpaths can't stop using their liberty to call and threaten their fellow Americans to give in to their 'demands' to takeover the country. Even though we now know conservatism is losing the battle for the hearts and minds of the people of this country.

That would be the left making victims.

It is too bad that you can't have you boys nuts cut off because he is mentally ill and thinks he.is a girl. ( No he was not assigned as a boy by the the doctors in the hospital. He was conceived as a boy and will always be one same goes for little girls. They can not be boys) no men can not get pregnant and have babies. Not now not ever.

I want people to have the rights as enumerated.on the US Constitution. Those rights do not include killing your babies or mutilating your children and their genitals. Marrying a person of the same sex is also not in the Constitution either. Having your genitals rearranged by using taxpayers money is not a right either.

as the wheels of justice slowly roll over the cult of criminality, and their many criminal participants, voters will use the ballot box to demonstrate their attitudes towards the available candidates. candidates endorsed by trump or candidates that continue to support trump will face more difficult campaigns as the multiple criminal investigations spill out into the arena of public opinion in the lead up to the midterms. notice how the party faithful are now back peddling on the once popular slam-dunk red-wave rhetoric so popular mere weeks ago. their alt-hero is in free fall.

Donald J. Trump who so far has mugged this entire country and "successfully" gotten away with it.

Started the border wall? Kept illegal aliens out of the country? Deported more illegals than Biden has? Put America interests first in negotiating with other countries? Make the US energy independent? Making US a net exporter of energy? 

Please tell me what he has done? Be specific!

Has he stranded hundred of American citizens and legal US residents in Afghanistan for over a year? Did he go to our enemies and shaky allies to obtain oil? Is he trying to negotiate with a avowed enemy on obtaining nuclear weapons and using another enemy as our negotiator? Did he preside over the highest inflation rate in over 40 years then try try shit us by telling us there was zero inflation in July? Did he sit by as gas prices hit the highest cost in history? 

Nope all that happened in only 18 months of Biden. So tell me what did Trump do to "mug" us ?

No, almost 6 days ago.  

On August 15, 2022, around 12:40 a.m., a street takeover initiated at the intersection of Figueroa Street and El Segundo Boulevard. Motorists flooded the intersection and blocked traffic with their vehicles from all directions to create a “pit” in the middle of the intersection. During the incident, spectators exited their vehicles and watched as motorists recklessly drove in a maneuver known as ‘doing donuts.’ The maneuver involves purposely losing tire traction while driving in a circular motion and continuing to accelerate. This results in a series of skid marks left on the pavement. The spectators then formed a ‘flash mob’ of looters and rushed a nearby 7-Eleven located at the northwest corner of Figueroa Street and El Segundo Boulevard. Video surveillance from the store showed the looters fanning out across the store and grabbing all the snacks, drinks, cigarettes, lotto tickets, and other merchandise. Looters also vandalized the store and threw merchandise at employees. The looters then exited the store to the surrounding parking lots and streets, and quickly dispersed before police arrived.

The combination of changing commuter patterns due to COVID, a growing problem of homeless using the facility and  a rise in high-profile incidents  around the station hub caused several business inside to close.

Again why are you sympathies with the criminals?

What kind of lame reply is that? I told you here:

Why do you think they will not be? Are you channeling Negative Nancy? They have footage. They ask for the public's help in identifying faces. The states have recognition software on the area cameras. It is highly probable that 7/11 and its insurance provider will file charges. And, it is just wrong for upwards of 100 people to loot a merchant facility-even in a poor neighborhood.

Now can you see my support for the store/property owner? These people are in the wrong, plain and simple. Everybody can see it. They should pay!

You seem to need a victim on NT: I ain't it. I support prosecution of everyone who participated in disrupting the order of this store. Fines for everybody involved. Justice for the store owners who did nothing to these people.

Now, who you going to throw under the bus, arkpdx? —Not me!

Tell us, why do you need it to be 'just so'?

First, you'll have to tell me what you mean,

The whole street takeover thing is bullshit. They just let this crap go and I don’t understand it. They should be loading these people into the back of a van to be taken jail en masse.

A few weeks ago, LA opened a brand new 6th street bridge, replacing an aging urban icon with a new one. There was lots of enthusiasm for the new landmark. Immediately, these mobs took over the bridge for burnouts and racing. The cops do nothing to stop it. Finally - rather than arrest wrongdoers - they closed the bridge so no one can use it; not even law abiding citizens.

This kind of crime will continue as long as people understand there is little or no chance that they will pay a price for it.

Fortunately things will start getting better on November 8 and even better on Jan 20 2025.
