In Texas, private security firms are helping owners install emergency buttons that locks the doors and calls police.. As soon as a mob theft happens, an employee presses the emergency button. The doors are locked and police are automatically called. Nobody gets out until police arrive and arrests are made.
Ok and what happens when an innocent bystander needs to get out bc of a medical issue but can’t now? You’re opening yourself up for a big time lawsuit if something were to happen. There was a similar case like this where a robber was trapped in a liquor store with innocent bystanders bc the clerk hit the emergency lock button. The the robber told the clerk to open the doors or else he’ll start shooting people. Well guess what, the clerk didn’t open the doors and the robber started shooting, killing one innocent man and now the clerk is facing a bunch of legal issues. It was all over the news.
The sad thing is for mom and pops store they can’t raise their prices or customers will go somewhere else. The animals that does this kind of crimes are just selfish greedy lazy useless and soon to be full time criminals.
It's very easy to get all of them, install remote controlled steel doors,let them come in,then shut the door remotely,stay in a strong room, call the police.

Others should not pay more. Owners should pay for security. With us paying more, the owner earns more. The criminals get away with it, but yet we get less for our money. If their store is that easy of a target. Then it needs to be shut down.
its a worthless idea. Once thieves learn of it they will snip that part off and still somehow make money off the item. how you gonna airtag hundreds if no thousands of items? It instantly raises the price of that item to the point of it not being profitable. If we as consumers found that out we would forego buying that bs
"When I was a little boy, my grandmother told me a story: 'There was an impoverished lady who made her living as a seamstress. She worked day and night to make ends meet. One day, her son came home and gave her a needle, which made her happy. Over time, he brought more items, like cloth, and she accepted them without question. However, one day he was arrested and sentenced to death by hanging. Both the young boy and his mother were crying. With his hands tied behind his back, the boy asked to speak with his mother one last time. As she drew near, he whispered for her to come closer. When she did, he bit her ear off and said, "If you had asked me where I got that needle, I wouldn't be here now."'", My grandmother told me that nothing you didn't pay for is yours. If you take it without paying, you stole it. Maybe parents should ask those people "where did you get that?"
that's one of the stupidest anecdotes I've read on YT. How about this one "You are accountable for your own actions". You think these thugs are bringing this stuff home to their parents?
Arrested in the morning, released in the afternoon, back to “work” the next morning. No lessen learned, nothing changed. Retailers still experience crimes , and tax payers’ money are wasted.
No mention of District Attorneys in this cities prosecution record on thieves who rob retail stores. Seems that would be a key aspect of the story on why these events take place in those cities.
this makes the shopping experience horrible when undercover weirdos are watching every step you take in a store. idiots soon people won't go to your stores
It’s really simple… no consequences, no deterrence! LA is leading the country in these crimes. Both state houses are Democrat controlled… should we expect anything less?
I know its easier said than done but those businesses need to seriously contemplate leaving areas that are not protecting them. The penalty for stealing is not nearly harsh enough.
What are they going to do? retail spending money on just catch and release. When theres no penalty for under $900 what a waste of time. Good luck prosecuting them.
Sounds like this plan is just to gather more evidence of how bad the problem is, not to work on a solution. Come on now CA, you're pass that point and you should already know how bad it is. Time to roll up your sleeves and do something actionable to help protect the retailers.
Whats worse......I dont want to work near this anymore. I now have a "Wear and Carry" and looking for a job in another area. Its not just the shoplifting, its the "Jugging", the car jacking, the murders.......and its the same element of people.
idea: in high risk stores, change how customers enter; have doors locked till each customer shows a licence and their face to a camera. This way, anyone who ends up robbing is easily identifiable on cameras.
Isn’t there a law now in certain blue states that allows people to steal items from stores as long as they don’t exceed X amount of dollars or something?
Am I the only one who noticed common trait amongst these criminals I saw in the video? Are we just going to not talk about it? I wonder what those certain 'organizations' have to say about this.
What’s the point of “arresting” them if you’re not gonna charge them and just release them in a few hours?
Exactly
Because all they have to tell their voters is that they're "arresting" shop lifters and the voter cant put together that they've to be charged.

Not what I saw on the arrests. I didn't see one black person arrested. Apparently they're just letting them get bigger and more organized.
The usual suspects! 🙄
Well, they do just let these mobs walk out of the store's front doors unaccosted.
There is no jail time for these crimes, and all will be release asap once at the police station. That is why it keeps happening.
They can thank Newsome and Gascon
Vote George Gascon out of office in 2024!!!!!! He is destroying LA
Others should not pay more. Owners should pay for security. With us paying more, the owner earns more. The criminals get away with it, but yet we get less for our money. If their store is that easy of a target. Then it needs to be shut down.
Then America should shutdown because my tax dollars are going to the welfare and the millions that are flooding through the southern border...
I think the situation can be made a lot better for cops and stores if they replace the sensors with a GPS tracking device inside of it.
Some retailers are putting air tags in some of their merchandise with great success
its a worthless idea. Once thieves learn of it they will snip that part off and still somehow make money off the item. how you gonna airtag hundreds if no thousands of items? It instantly raises the price of that item to the point of it not being profitable. If we as consumers found that out we would forego buying that bs
I feel like corporations were going to raise those prices anyways. Lol
Remember... the people who passed the laws that ALLOW this to happen were voted in... Enjoy.
If its left to me they'll be sitting on the electric chair.
"When I was a little boy, my grandmother told me a story: 'There was an impoverished lady who made her living as a seamstress. She worked day and night to make ends meet. One day, her son came home and gave her a needle, which made her happy. Over time, he brought more items, like cloth, and she accepted them without question. However, one day he was arrested and sentenced to death by hanging. Both the young boy and his mother were crying. With his hands tied behind his back, the boy asked to speak with his mother one last time. As she drew near, he whispered for her to come closer. When she did, he bit her ear off and said, "If you had asked me where I got that needle, I wouldn't be here now."'", My grandmother told me that nothing you didn't pay for is yours. If you take it without paying, you stole it. Maybe parents should ask those people "where did you get that?"
that's one of the stupidest anecdotes I've read on YT. How about this one "You are accountable for your own actions". You think these thugs are bringing this stuff home to their parents?
I noticed a pattern in all the suspects...
That is crazy people work hard to open their business and then you come steal it. 😢
Arrested in the morning, released in the afternoon, back to “work” the next morning. No lessen learned, nothing changed. Retailers still experience crimes , and tax payers’ money are wasted.
It ain't rocket science, the crimimals are from the predominant demographic in south LA.
The issue is when they get caught there is zero consequences
No mention of District Attorneys in this cities prosecution record on thieves who rob retail stores. Seems that would be a key aspect of the story on why these events take place in those cities.
this makes the shopping experience horrible when undercover weirdos are watching every step you take in a store. idiots soon people won't go to your stores
It’s really simple… no consequences, no deterrence! LA is leading the country in these crimes. Both state houses are Democrat controlled… should we expect anything less?
Condolences from Singapore 🙏🇸🇬🙄😒
I know its easier said than done but those businesses need to seriously contemplate leaving areas that are not protecting them. The penalty for stealing is not nearly harsh enough.
Leave them with nothing but liquor stores and vape shops barred up like prisons.
What are they going to do? retail spending money on just catch and release. When theres no penalty for under $900 what a waste of time.
Good luck prosecuting them.
Strange that all the cities listed are blue ones??
HONEY, GET DRESSED.
WE'RE STEALING FOR CHRISTMAS !
😎
What's the one thing they all have in common.... I'll wait...
They're brown folks? Nice try 🤡
If more than $900 is stolen in one "event" all perpetrators should be charged for the total amount stolen.
ABOUT TIME!!!! These people cause stores to leave communities, that already suffer not having enough shops.
That's b/c they're 20 BUCKS a SF!!
So by your logic, shouldn't children leave your communities since it's mostly your own that's predators?
How are they cracking down when you keep defunding them
They all have something in common? 🤔
They are all cities.
democrap cities with super preds gone crazy. @@itzhexen0
@@MrBond007-k2u go look at other cities. it's probably because it's a city.
@@itzhexen0 naw its not that something else.🤔
Yes the criminals aren’t Caucasian.
Uh huh,but are the courts prosecuting them?
Black Friday extends to December now
Lazy politicians, poor police management, pathetic criminal justice system, bad citizens.
Sounds like this plan is just to gather more evidence of how bad the problem is, not to work on a solution. Come on now CA, you're pass that point and you should already know how bad it is. Time to roll up your sleeves and do something actionable to help protect the retailers.
Whats worse......I dont want to work near this anymore. I now have a "Wear and Carry" and looking for a job in another area. Its not just the shoplifting, its the "Jugging", the car jacking, the murders.......and its the same element of people.
BFD! They'll be out the next day to do it all over again!!
Too little, too late.
idea: in high risk stores, change how customers enter; have doors locked till each customer shows a licence and their face to a camera. This way, anyone who ends up robbing is easily identifiable on cameras.
Sic the FBI on them! Worked at the white house. 5 years for everyone.
Great Job Governor Gavin Newsom 👏🏼 👍🏼 👌🏽 🙌🏽
Doing such a great job in California! Everyone loves you man!
This type of theft has been going on in California, for quite some time now. Ever since the early 1990's☹️
The best part is that while their crime has no consequences if you tried to stop them you’d most likely be arrested.
Soft on crime policies by corrupt politicians has alot to do with problems like this.
Sounds like they need to put some kind of a device that will shock the person if they try to steal the item
The cast in this serie is so colourful ❤
Usual suspects at it again I see
Isn’t there a law now in certain blue states that allows people to steal items from stores as long as they don’t exceed X amount of dollars or something?
No. Stop watching Fox News.
Yes, but many states have laws like this. For example, Texas has a higher minimum at $1,500 dollars, California is $950.
Am I the only one who noticed common trait amongst these criminals I saw in the video?
Are we just going to not talk about it?
I wonder what those certain 'organizations' have to say about this.
BLM ???
They will claim poverty, they need to afford the Gucci and Prada etc.
Its not guns that need a buyback program
Not allowed to talk about it. Which is why it will continue and worsen.
It's called reparations. Get used to it, should've paid when you had the chance
