The usual suspects
BLM 🎉
I am so sick & tired of these usual suspects.
What is wrong with them.
Absolutely no flipping morals or principles.
Destroying everything they touch,creating nothing.
Calling themselves God’s chosen ppl
They sure are doing the most
@@SVG_1😂 God's chosen people 😂shows just how they think.
Guess they did not read the part in the Bible.
🤔mmm but then again can they read.
Well when asked of God how do we recognize satan Lord.
Reply...
Satan comes to rob, steal, kill and destroy & that is how you recognize satan .
Well is this not exactly how they carry on regardless of the land they in. World wide.
Look around see the common thread.

Blactivity!?! Very creative term.

Not a race problem,..... but a problem race.
everyone does not steal,.....everyone steals
So white people never commit crimes? Interesting claim.
So every person who is black, is a, "problem," in your opinion?
Right!! Definitely not a race problem because they all steal at my store. Black white and Pink lol
comments of you tube videos showing white thieves or white criminals never mention their race. and there are many such you tube videos. theft is wrong no matter what race the perpetrator is.
If the black community spent as much time educating themselves and finding employment this would not happen
Most African Americans do
Tell that to your park friends
How much is rent in the city especially in a decent neighborhood and how much is minimum wage?
I'm not excusing it but don't start with the racist bull crap. Half the thievery would stop if these corporations would offer living wages. Not everyone is passed down a house or generational wealth. Most ppl paying 1200 and upward to live in a partial decent neighborhood. That doesn't include a vacation, life insurance, or savings from retirement. How can a single person pay that and necessities off 7-15 an hour? They robbing Peter to pay Paul......Literally

All businesses should have a NO MASK policy.
But the government told them to wear masks didn't they?
It's a lot simpler than that. All the high-end stores either limit the number of people allowed in the store (5 max, and not from one group) or they require you to make an appointment. Simple.
Chinese mandated masks by launching the coronavirus. They will never go away.
She's a reporter that witnessed a theft and the best description she had is "2 girls'.
I thought the same thing. She’s a real “go getter”. A reporter with nothing to report. They were probably her friends. She provided cover 🤣.
2 black girls
@@DAMAGE_INC.979 Oh definitely. If they don't say or show it, I just guess that. Because I like being right.

u know some non black women pretend to be black. & those Dark overseas Indians, Afro Latina's, Africans, Islanders- etc; could be giving the "American Black Woman" a bad image. Just something to think about.

No masks in retail stores. These thieves will make the stores leave Philadelphia eventually.
Eventually? Hahha, try by end of year when the economy officially tanks and theft becomes DAILY across downtown.
Eventually all stores will leave Wakunda.
There is already a mask ban for stores in Philly
@@davidcarlin3850
Maybe a democrat ban would be more effective?
Eventually most stores will do business online only... and people will complain.
Usual suspects. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CULTURE!
Hmm, so, your claim is that EVERY PERSON WHO IS BLACK is CULTURALLY encouraged and taught to be a criminal?
Those Damn Israelites!!!
I knew the color of the thieves before I clicked on the video!
Amazing! Gee, you must have ESP. How did you know? LOL.

Nobody cares, chubby.
Shows hwo dumb they are. No YT woman is looking to buy discount lulu off a truck.
I buy on Amazon, it's safer than shopping.
I workout 5 days a week and all I wear is lulu. If you can afford it , it’s worth the price . Had my tops and shorts last for years now . Better than adidas and Nike for sure
What’s the point of this comment
Grand opening, grand closing. This is why certain people get followed around the store by employees.
Good point.
I was followed around a department store.... guess who was begging that they were sorry(some random white dude). They were so busy watching me...and dude was trying to clean them out😂😂😂😂
Stores near me have begun mandatory shopping escorts for blacks upon entering.
How about segregation?
@@thelmam1048 These are Indian merchants who are the only brave souls wiling to open a store in downtown areas. I don’t believe they are familiar with our segregation history or Jim Crow laws. They just want to protect their merchandise and workers (who are mostly family).
They know that employees aren't allowed to stop them, so thieves think they have free reign.
I don't know why they don't hire security guards at the door. They'd be a lot cheaper than the huge losses on the daily. If they don't allow employees to stop the thieves and they should hire people who will. I don't get why this company just keeps putting up with this. It's been going on for years. I first heard about it when the employee was fired for trying to stop the thieves. And it's still going on, 10 grands worth in one hit? Something wrong with the higher ups in the corporation, get some armed guards, that will stop the loss. It's probably why Lululemon is so expensive because they're covering their losses by increasing the prices. .
Maybe judges should start holding criminals accountable, instead of giving slap on the wrist after slap on the wrist.
Then there would be a whole lot of white people in prison!!!!!!
Bankrupt culture and woke agendas just keep fueling this behavior.
They are Joe Biden supporters

Who the hell is everyone? I'm giving your comment thumbs down!
@@steelionx9255 Okay, everyone over the age of four, and who has at least a room temperature IQ. Fixed it.
Stealing merchandise worth more than $1,000 is a third-degree felony with fines up to $15,000 and up to 7 years in prison in PA.
LOL, if they get probation, I'll be shocked. They'll probably be told, just lay low for minute, give it some time, it'll pass, and everyone will forget about it. If they don't prosecute it, it didn't happen. That's how crime goes down.
Not in D.A. Larry Krasner’s justice reform universe!
Welp….that doesn’t seem to be the case right now. They do not care
Not with uncle Larry around
Remember Lululemon don’t take EBT
Businesses should lock the doors and force customers to ring a door bell!
13%
13% account for 53% of violent crime. I don't want to be anywhere near them.
These Corporations give the same bs we care crap, poor employees probably getting paid peanuts, provide armed security
Why always…
genetics
Hmm, so no other folks except folks who are black, steak from stores? That is EASILY proven wrong. Do you know how many white people steal from Walmart?
Closing down Lululemon stores is racist and will be protested to the fullest extent of our capabilities. How can we make a living selling stolen goods if they close the stores?
That part.
LOL! Great sarcasm!
Tried it. Grew up in the surrounding suburbs and the yt girls steal more than anyone starting at young ages. Don’t try to make this a race thing and get embarrassed by how deplorable those pointing fingers are themselves. Foh
Exactly. It is all about getting free stuff. Gimmee, gimmee, gimmee.
people need to stop stealing. This is ridiculous
Those 4 BLACK WOMEN say it house it is
Last year the owner of LuLuemon said in statement that she was ok letting criminals get away with stealing and she didn’t want employees to call the authorities. She said the people doing the stealing were underprivileged and needed the items. Boy, she changed her tune now. 😂😂😂
British singer Lily Allen was for immigrants rights in the UK, she invited a African Muslim family into her home.. 2 weeks later she was a few blocks from her house calling the cops complaining about the African Muslim family being squatters.
What a weird thing to say. Theft is theft. It doesn't matter who's doing it. Why does she charge so much for a pair of leggings if she's so concerned about poor people needing them? She's literally just giving her stuff away. Maybe it's a scam and she's reaping in the insurance? Seems bizarre that she wouldn't have security at the door if she's losing 10 grand in one hit.
10k = 10 years
Drizzle Drizzle, if you are broke just say. If they did not have a criminal record before now they do and the cycle will repeat itself. You will never catch them in a library stealing books to learn how to code.
As Chris Rock said, "If you ever want to hide your money from a (N-word), hide it in your books. Books to a (N-word) are like Kryptonite to Superman." LOL.
They wanna get in their crime before they turn 18.
The hilarious part is that Lululemon is marketed toward skinny upper middle class white women. Whom exactly do these thieves plan to sell these clothes to?
"Day-um. I diddin tink uv dat! Sheet!"
poshmark.
they're probably stealing for them. don't act like -skinny white girls don't steal, lie, & find questionable bargains, etc.
What’s so hilarious, they’re hardly gonna try selling them to fat black chicks.
The lovely ladies representing the 13%. Nowhere is safe.
why would you hire them ?
Usual suspects
They don’t care about their employees or customers. Lululemon ONLY cares about the customer’s wallet.
13% again
The least desired and the least married. Part of the reason why.
Kick rocks…just like the Kardashian’s I guess. Lol
"the least desired", like it's a bad thing. Have u seen what/who- they promote as men these days? Married women are single parents, cry in luxury, have someone else raise their kids- while they hold the position of being a wife to a dl, cheater, looking for fresh out of HS graduates to smile at him- etc. or should we say "some people" are like what we both described?
@@myway2653truth sucks
I am a black man and I agree. Most educated well to do black men do not want to marry black women. I grew up in a Predominantly white community and always wondered why black men that are educated and well to do dont find black women of the same standing. For 1 black women are extremely insecure. If you have education or value of equal or greater value they see you as a threat. Black women have a weird way of thinking. They don't see relationships as a partnership or teamwork, they view everything as competition, especially with black men. Black women are control freaks because they are insecure. If they know you have the ability to come and go they feel insecure. I've learned black women whether they are educated or not, church going to ghetto are all the same underneath the surface. I've dated girls who were Suburban, Considered ghetto, educated, Church going and they all act the same way and are toxic. Black men are the only Demographic where we do not have good women no matter where you go, that's why so many of us date outside the race.
But they still get impregnated by the opposite gender of the same quality person
The Usual Suspects !!!😂😂😂😂
The same culture 😩😩
Not surprising! Just look at them... they continue to prove what they really are
1982, I worked at a fast food restaurant in Detroit. We had an armed security guard who was not allowed to intervene. Once people realized he could do nothing, thieves would come in just to take his gun.
Arthor Treacher's Fish and Chips, Gratiot and Seymour (aka 6 mile).
People need to work for what they want🤬
And we really don’t need a lot of this crap. Only ends up in landfills.
And we pay higher prices because companies cover their losses by adding to the prices of their items.
@@kellysblackcat and workers getting higher wages (rightly so). The companies will always want to increase their profits. Capitalism…unbridled.
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT NO ONE WILL STOP THEM AND THAT IS RIDICULOUS RETAILER’S ARE LOSING THEIR MERCHANDISE BECAUSE OF NOT STOPPING THEM THE POLICY SHOULD CHANGE BECAUSE THE PEOPLE SHOPPING IN STORE’S ARE PAYING A HIGHER PRICE BECAUSE STORE’S ARE PENALIZING THEIR CUSTOMER’S FOR THE THEFT’S THEY DO NOT STOP AND THAT IS NOT FAIR TO THEIR CUSTOMER’S‼️
I guess I’ve been under a rock I thought Lululemon was a children store
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 i used to think the same thing.

@georgeoffenberger1262 you may be thinking of cocomelon which is a show my baby niece watches.
I used to do loss prevention work . It's crazy . Low pay, lots of injuries , I had fun but it got dangerous. And women are the worst .
Is it true that women thieves still deny it even when showed the video? Or is it true that when women thieves finally do admit it, they claim an outter body experience? A LP officer told me this.
Girl wtf would they chase them?! Employee of the month was never that serious. The store had insurance on everything but those employees lives. I’m not dying for nothing they’ll have replaced that same day.
Same old perps…nothing new…

Well well well!!!
If they don't let their employees intervene, why don't they hire security guards at the door. It would be a lot cheaper than the amount of items being stolen daily. I can't stand thieves, and the reason things cost so much is because businesses account for their losses by adding it to the price of goods. So all the honest people out there are basically covering the costs for these dirty low life thieves. They get away with it because they know Lululemon aren't stopping them, so get some security guards and stop the thefts. Disgusting.
This is why things are so expensive...
Store policy:
No mask
No fake lashes
No wigs

Start locking doors when you see obvious thieves.

Scott Adams warned us
Ardmore store is across from speta R-5 train line. Ardmore is on the "Main Line." Called that because of the train line. Very lovely area. BUT. city line avenue and dangerous overbrook and west philly are just a few minutes away. Bet those lil hos jumped on the train and jumped off at overbrook. Need guards near the train now.

Excellent!!!
OF COURSE THE SAME WAKANDA PPL!
The saddest part of store robberies is that consumers and taxpayers end up paying the costs. Consumers pay higher prices for merchandise to make up for the losses, while taxpayers cover the expenses of legal fees, law enforcement, and housing for convicted criminals.
Silvers at it.
Alot of people don't know that their fabric causes cancer. 😂
Same sus, ALL THE TME. Need to build bigger prisons.
I don't know if I am more shocked that the police were called and arrested them or the fact they think this stuff is worth 10k
The most heartbreaking aspect of these store robberies is that it's not the criminals who ultimately foot the bill, but rather innocent consumers and taxpayers. Consumers end up bearing the brunt by facing increased prices to cover the losses, while taxpayers are left to cover the costs of legal representation, law enforcement, and incarceration for these criminals once they are convicted. It is a vicious cycle where the ones who pay are not the ones who commit the crimes.
IT'S ABOUT SUPPLY AND DEMAND. IF PEOPLE DIDN'T BUY STOLEN GOODS THERE WOULD BE NO LOOTING.
lululemon company policies do not inteact with thieves or do anything towards them otherwise you will be fired, sounds like soft on crime policies to me instead of deterring crime you promote the rise of it
I have to say you have to profile. When I see women entering the store wearing hoods and mask, it’s easy to say thief. The same with young men. No one is wearing a mask anymore. Put a sign in the window. No hoods and no mask. When they enter turn them right around. Also you can have an auto lock to lock theirs inside when you see them grab. Lock the door. I don’t understand why these retail stores don’t have more security. Not just a security person but features like an auto door lock and door shutters to lock a their inside. Lock all doors. If they have a G well they will have to deal with cops when they arrive and that may not go so well.
they will accuse you are racism because it's a part of black fashion. Catch 22
Problem is is that even though Ardmore in Lower Merion is super white, it has black residents too in Ardmore and Bryn Mawr. I think it's the speed that makes it apparent. Just make everyone have to buzz in.
Why didn’t any customers near the front of the store or bystanders on the street stop them?
those are some expensive synthetic cancer causing materials.
Of course they did not want those items to work out 😅
Funny the stock went from $480 to $330 in the last few months. Often wonder if this is for publicity to raise it's brand hype.
Or maybe it’s an excuse
@@ITZROBYN could be, either way seems very coincidental.
I’m sure they will have to write an Im sorry essay, one hour of community service then complain they were the victim
Thefts are a problem in all States and Cities that don't prosecute criminals, because that would show just how much crime is in those areas and who is committing those crimes. The protected class of criminals are rewarded with not facing consequences for their actions, so they continue to do it until business's are forced to close. Then you have members of congress complaining saying it's discrimination if business's close, not allowing people to steal, making things unsafe for employees must be allowed or it's racist. It literally saying, we want to do as we please, act as we please, take what's not ours as we please and expect to do so freely without obstruction of any kind. There is no hiding it, some literally openly walk into a business and help themselves to whatever they want, walk out as if they owned the place without any fear of being spoken to or stopped in any way. The criminal is the employee or business owner if they try and prevent it from happening. There is an obsession to ruin this country and it's being done by shady tactics, guilting people into thinking, well it's ok because certain ones have it ruff, or they didn't have a father around, they're poor, so we should excuse the lawlessness and become and society of chaos.
It's a form of The Purge.
Lululemon is at goodwill.
Well they all qualify to be news anchors and reporters!
Why steal from Lululemon? Its so out now. If you're going to steal from a store, make it a better store thats in fashion. Next time, hit Alo Yoga.....

Lawless America Fox29
America is a forth world country. what do you expect?
In 2003, I went to a Louis Vuitton store in Paris, and was buzzed in by employees. Only a few customers at a time were permitted in, others stood in line to await their turn. As a rule, your passport was collected when you made a purchase. It was also the first time I saw banks with an anti-room that was an effective deterrent for robbers. I think if high end department stores wanted to reduce theft, they could institute a policy whereby a drivers license/ID was collected, only a certain number of persons could enter at a time, and the rest could wait in a queue outside. Once shopping was over, ID’s could be given back. It wouldn’t necessarily add to the cost of business, nor reduce the number of shoppers, and would potentially save the business tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
Put a cap on how many guests can be in the store at a time. Keep someone at the door at all times to lock it, and unlock it as people leave or in case of emergency.
Is the reporter who witnessed the crime not permitted to report the description of the criminals? to say you witnessed it and only speak to it "2 girls" is pretty bad.
Awful and sad...
Hopefully they're caught & prosecuted
But why are the stores closing?!?
Not one thing "valuable" in Lulu lemon
Soon in America there is gona be no stores open to shop in. And lulu lemon is woke as. I'll never buy from them. Not Everrrr
