- It happens within minutes. Swarms of thieves use tools to bash into a store and quickly swipe thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, and business owners in the Memphis area are fed up.

It’s not poverty it’s the culture.
We both know that’s BS. Memphis is one of the poorest cities in the country, one of the most minority populated, which means there’s going to be discrimination regarding recruitment for jobs, it’s not a culture to be evil.
So if it's not poverty, then why are they stealing. And who is buying this stolen stuff. They are just as guilty as the kids stealing. It's 100 percent wrong.
@@dfattyadams123, they naturally lazy
@waspwrap1235 they ain't trying to get a job. Gtfoh
Exactly ❗️👍
That’s sad, your own people do this to you.
So true!!
We really need to stop claiming these troglodytes. Skin folk ain't kinfolk!
People r people
@@bobbiejackson732 You are right!!:
Own People? Those are Po blk deamons
Install booby traps. Once they break and everyone enters the store have a big metal fence fall down, trapping everyone inside.
crime in memphis is so bad folks are turning to medieval techniques
Very intelligent solution
Nice thought but thats illegal.
Lol
Guard dogs with them
For people who claim to be so fearful of the police killing them for no reason… they sure do love to commit 90% of the crimes in Memphis.
It's literally 6 TIMES the amount of white people than black America we DO NOT commit the most crime in this country 💯
That's what the media shows you
@@leilanigreenwood5064 oh is that what the media shows me? As if I don’t have eyeballs of my own that see it irl on a daily basis…
@@bophadeeznutz Yeah right
@@leilanigreenwood5064 thats what the media shows and what the prison population PROVES...
They don’t understand they’re making it worse for themselves and everyone else.
- They steal
- Businesses either leave the area or raise their prices to recoup their losses
- If prices are raised, they are now more inclined to steal
OR
- If that business leaves the area, now an entire community experiences that economic loss.
It’s madness here smh.
It starts with stores and might end up in homes
Say it loader! And then turn them in if you see it happen
@@Uncaged_cricket Jail is just a homeless shelter to those deamons
Hit 🎯 the European and fake 🤥 Arabs and Jews not 🚫 blacks
@emem o nah..more ppl in homes have someone there with guns
Store closures will affect indefinitely all of us in the future they're not coming back
What more online shopping? That's where people are being lead to do anyway.
@@leilanigreenwood5064 the they'll just steal the shit from your doorstep
Lawlessness.
Democrats
🦧🦧🦧🦧
Thank a Trump supporter!
So happy I moved 3 years ago. This best damn thing ever!!!!!!
But here you are still keeping up with Memphis news.
@@dxytona Yes my mom still there honey...Make sure she's still breathing....She's old and don't want to move...But I know you love Memphis but not me.. Getto and gangster..
You need to move your black ⚫ ass away from Memphis.. Memphis is pure 🗑......
Lol! well I hope your well living in your utopia. Try to visit your mom now!
Maybe open up a work-boot cleaning store.
@William Cram That’s hilarious. We know these monkeys would never steal them.
Lmao
@@NoNo-bz1fz they not monkeys .They screwed up humans
And I bet most of them white boys
@@MichaelBrown-lm3vd you know in your own heart that’s not true micheal …. Be realistic mane lmao
Savage culture, Savage people, Savage kids, completely out of control, in every state in this country.
They need to start placing their goods in bullet proof cases as well as have something like a sprinkler system that sprays out heavy fog and gas when the glass doors are broken or when the alarm goes off.
"The Oppressed" SURE think they can do Whatever TF they want, huh? This dude is Just providing a Service. Not Selling Anything.
Just wonderful what the young man said. You have to make the decision to do the right thing. And you can't hang out with everyone. Choose wisdom.
It sure does look as if a certain demographic is executing these crimes.
😂
50 to 60 % of the time its local guys. 99% of the time its(OH I CAN'T SAY THAT CAN I !
@Dixie Normus 🎶 🎶 Daily Double 🎶 🎶. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 how much would you like to wager?
Soon it will only be online shopping for anything
Every night i sleep well knowing im not in Memphis
For a second I thought the Tyre Nichols "protests" have started but apparently this is a normal thing for y"all lol
Many businesses will relocate outside of Memphis.
Wouldn't it be cheaper using hot lead?
This is what you protested for. Enjoy!
It affects you as well; this world is shared..
Exactly when did the smash and grabs begin? I don't remember this going on 20 years ago
It went extra hard during 2020 pandemic when everybody was on lock down
Nope, this all started in 2019. Thank a DEMOCRAT
@@saltminer9120 Really? What does the two party political system have to do with crime? Hell, crime is everywhere, even in Republican cities and states. Crime happens no matter what, no matter what party is president, or control of Senate, Congress
@@leilanigreenwood5064 Your are a liar or ignorant. What majority Republican city has this crime rate?
@@leilanigreenwood5064 Cut it out. Tennessee is a red state, and the biggest piece of shit in the whole state is a blue city DEMOCRATICALLY RAN!!!
Pretty soon there will be no shops to steal from
it isn't victimless property crimes. owners need to use force to teach them a lesson. if they ready up and start laying them low it may send a message to deter the rest what is at stake when you try to take what someone else worked hard for.
Always the usual suspects 🙄😞
Yeah, kinda like when we hear people decapitating their love ones and in some cases eating them too. I agree always the same people. Right.
Because Looting Matters.🤣
Or Burning & Looting Movement
Amen to showing these thieves, question, why y’all never show the thieves that’s clearing out peoples bank accounts.
Because that’s where all the violent shootings take place, right!? Smh
So sad! I had a dream I was getting a reading from a psychic. The cards said run away from Memphis because it's too bad. Then I wake up to this. Sad..
Same thing going on here in Chicago… go figure!🙄🥺
This looks like a national organized effort. Maybe a crime franchise model.
Black on Black 🔥fireeee NoApology🔥🔥🔥🔥
The actions of a few affect many.
It's a dam shame.
These criminals need lengthy prison sentences as a deterrent.
They do it because mpd ain't shit I see more police cars parked at the station than in the streets
They're too busy beating unarmed men on their way home
How about in addition to these jokers going to jail they be made to pay for the damages and marchandise before being released? That would make sense right?
Y’all gave them money. They spent it and don’t wanna work for it. So y’all government
We herd thanks for informing us again 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It’s always the same people but we can’t address it because that would be racist.
I'm a woman of color and I agree with your statement.
I read, only is America you can be black, a criminal and a victim at the same time.
Well, white woman and I know you are. Definitely not condoning this. But at least theses people are not decapitating their love ones. Nothing racist about it just a fact.
Make the parents pay for the damages that these criminals do if they're working deducted out of their check if they're on social security take half of it for the damage is done by their kids
Ever think of getting an old time alarm system with loud sirens in and on the bldg that go off automatically?
I dunno if it'd help but 3 times robbed man...uhg
All for shoes? Too bad shoes don't make you a good human.
Chang their body temperatures...PROBLEMS SOLVED
May sound cruel, but can some type of internal high voltage electric gates or automatic pepper gas spray be installed and activated as soon as windows/doors are breached?
Time for sci-fi series Andromeda's Intruder Defense System to be brought into reality!
That means no local stores to shop at. One would have to travel further out for groceries and other necessities.
Usual suspects
That 13 percent just keep showing us how much they need reparations. Poor souls just so misunderstood. Laughable really Laughable.
From my experience even if they find the stolen merchandise, the Memphis police department will not give it back to them . These crooked ass cops didn’t give me my car trailer back they let the thieves keep it..
There’s one way to stop this. They need to pass a law, you get caught stealing they chop off your hand.
When rent wasn't 4 ± over priced thieves were embarrassed..
*But, but, but... aren't they doing this for bread for their families?*
if you really start repeating thoughts you can begin to change your life to a tremendous degree
Expect more crime without the scorpion unit. Sad but it’s true
I don't think this is what the civil rights (emphasis on CIVIL) movement was all about.
These ferals didn't all arrive at the same time by accident....it was organized, therefore they should all be charged under RICO and sent away for about 60 years.
Martin Luther King had a dream that his people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character 😏😏🔫🔫🏃🏿♂️🏃🏿♂️👦🏾👦🏾👦🏾👦🏾👦🏾 making MLK proud everyday, one crime at a time... Just a good ol' boy, he din duu nufin
give these animals 40 years under the prison.
Yeah when you have insurance the rest of us will have to suffer over it ?
Why these companies don't have alarms to notify cops immediately not just watching a video after the fact
Jail is proving to be not much of a deterrent afterall, and it also shows that development or overdevelopment can be a reason not to move to certain areas.
Of course it is easy to do thats why they do it. Make it harder like work and they will run for the hills!
Yikes smh
Nobody wants to grind the right way, watch if they live long enough to build up something for themselves, somebody just like them will take it away!
Hire me, I can END this, NO repeat offenders
No way any of that was worth 100k or even close!
It's not
Doesn't matter wasn't Thiers to take fym
@@aishareed629 True. As bad as they are. The enablers are worse, the ones who buy stolen goods. No buyers, no market
Pay the people.
We need the MPD Scorpion Unit to deal with these thieves!!
Unbreakable glass on display cases might help.
That & not putting both pairs of shoes on display.
It’s another black Flashmob. 😂
Look at this. God bless the mess.
Where was security they suppose to have under cover in the mall
Love it!
Should've taken better precautions.
Ran out of food stamps
Dang
Turn them in....police yourself
Sadly that's what happens when you sue the police and don't let it do its job.
This is pure anarchy .... pure and simple ... and is 1000% deserving of the unltimate penalty!!!
Da brotha's runnin round jackin everythang in Memphis
Let’s get the five on one scorpion crew on these guys
Democrat cities.They have a show on Netflixs about this.
What's the name of it?
Like I was told😏 life just isn't fare 😄
NAACP..
constantly
Oh holy blackness!
I want the lady reporter outfit.
We need more of them....if that's the only way the community can benefit from their businesses being around us like leaches let it be....let them close the stores raise the prices whatever....they can't survive without taxing the poor they have no choice.....unless their interested in paying a livable wage and stop all the hiring restrictions
What hiring restrictions?
Now where is SCORPION
Disbanded.
I wouldn’t open sh!t in Memphis SMFH!
Immediate solution: elect more woke liberal Democrats!!
Black culture
DEMOCRAT black culture.
What the hell armed security
Can't legally shoot someone for theft. A guy did that to some kid breaking in his car in memphis and killed the kid. Kid was unarmed. Property owner is in jail now
@@jacobhowerton3379 I don't know where I live if there's a no trespassing sign you disobey it's up to said owner of property.Breaking in a car a little different from tearing up my store stealing from my family. I seen the story I don't think the guy should've shot the kid but hold him for cops .My neighbor caught 2guys breaking in his car in his yard they stayed for police to get them ,you always have opportunity,
Yurp make em wroste on emself n Memphis,later they go look for a job from another city n cry
These ninjas making it hard for my lil ones so f em turn they names over to me I’ll take care of em nice and quietly 😈
Insurance Fraud let's just be real
Incohoots with the widow repair business that recruit these young men from the ghetto.
WHAT???!!! Did you watch the video? Listen to the report??!!
The racist comments are hilarious. If all black people were like this, the crime would be worse than a violent 3rd world country. For a city that’s over 50% black, you’d expect the crime to be 10 fold. Honestly, most black people in Memphis want less crime, but when 1 of 2 people in the city are black, what do you expect the race to be??
Stephanie is beautiful
“It’s just a few bad apples” shiiiiiiiid 😂😂😂. What’s that shit you crazy ass Neanderthals say “ain’t it mane” 💀
They stole 13 percent of the items. As always.
End up no job?
just think of all the money they saved by not buying it then making more money on online sales with them goods good work next time put on some gloves & face mask this isn't gta5
Another democratic utopia?
