Why is San Francisco run by morons? Walgreens Closing 5 More Stores Due to Liberal Shoplifting Policies

Listen to Nancy Pelosi speak. It explains everything. These folks are disconnected from reality. 🤣

Is this what progressives call progress?

If this was anything Republican related, Flagpole, agip, LL, trollism, etc...would be all over this. It's liberal related, so they are little crickets.

It's disgusting that it's come to this. Policies of the Left Wing Country California, thanks a lot!!!

Please help me out. What do those wacky liberals in S.F. have to do with shoplifting?

google is your friend. Look into the DA's policies regarding "small time" crimes, the general disdain of the city council (and many of the populous) for police, etc. Should take you about 6s to figure it out, as there's THAT much info out there about SF and its policies (or lack thereof).

He's got to be a troll. Nobody could be this dumb and willfully blind.

They got fined 4.5 million dollars for wage theft in CA a few years ago, heard crickets on that. The media blitz about closing stores for theft reasons is effectively a public relations campaign by Walgreens to get taxpayer-funded cops to sit outside their stores instead of paying for security guards.

Very similar to the "foreign cyber-attacks on private US businesses must be dealt with by the US Military" push a while ago when that pipeline got hacked. They want you and me to pay for their cyber-security.

I read that the problem is a shortfall of policeman. Some are retiring and others have moved away. Are there funds available to hire enough new officers to stem the problem? With the cost of living in the Bay Area, new officers don't come cheap.

How would you geniuses on the right, deal with the issue?

This will bring it up to 17 stores. I was thinking initially, "Whey don't they hire private security like they do here in Baltimore?" Then I read an amazing article that says the private cops don't do anything. A guy rode down the aisle of a store in bicycle filling up trash bags with stuff. 85% of the thefts are professional syndicates.

Despite the naïve handwringing of the likes of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, most such thieves aren’t desperate mothers stealing baby food. In San Francisco, for example, professional crime accounts for 85 percent of CVS’s dollar losses, according to a company official. It is the province of full-time crooks and drug addicts, who fence the stolen goods to feed their addictions.

The problem is security guards are paid, more or less, to be there and not to takeover a policeman's role in apprehending a potentially violent criminal.

Oh, I don't know, enforcing the law always helps. Prosecuting offenses like shop lifting and drug possession with actual consequences like jail time. Liberals don't like that though. They'd rather concoct excuses as to why the problems their policies create can't be solved.

An amazing article in the tabloid NY Post 😂

Rojo at his very best.

Uh, enforcing the law requires more police officers and they need to be paid for. You completely ignored my post except for the last sentence.

So, because I'm a Democrat, I have to be for ANY policy in any liberal city ever in existence? Nope. Doesn't work that way. I am ALWAYS prudent with my positions. I just generally believe liberal policies (ESPECIALLY since that moron Trump and his idiot followers came about) are better.

1) I am a fiscal conservative.

2) I am NOT for cancel culture as I believe in forgiveness for people who are truly sorry (and I do believe people can be sorry for things they have done and that it's just not sorry they were caught).

3) I don't buy into the fact that we have to believe women about everything. Nope. Sorry. They are people too, and like ALL people (except for me), they do lie sometimes.

4) I do not support Mary Cain in her lawsuit.

5) I am PRO police and not for defunding police at all.

6) I am not for lax shoplifting laws.

7) I am PRO business (one of the reasons I believe companies have the right to require their employees to get vaccinated against ANY killer virus).

So, your attempt to paint me with a broad brush doesn't here, brother.

...doesn't *work*...

lets runner going to lets run

2) You might want to put "some" in front of "people".

3) Straw man. A few shrill people saying that doesn't mean that many liberals believe it.

4) You weren't there at OP and don't know what evidence will be presented during the trial. Do you support Salazar?

5) Another straw man. There have been some reallocation of funds but not a decrease in officers.

6) Is it lax shoplifting laws that are causing the problems in S.F.?
