You know you live in a bad area when they lock up ice cream instead of drug dealers.
-
“There is no punishment.” That sums up the whole situation.
-
I've shopped at this location many times. They need to stop treating shoplifters like victims, and start enforcing the law. Businesses can't survive under these conditions.
-
“The problem is, they’re not punished” – 100% correct.
-
You know it’s a messed up city when the cop even doesn’t want to be on camera
-
I don’t understand why these businesses are even staying open. I would shut it down and leave!
-
This is so embarrassing for our entire UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!
-
The store didn't want to press charges, they only wanted their stuff back 🤦🤷
-
Lawmakers need to be put in prison for 30 years for failing to address this mega problem
-
Why are citizens allowing politicians to do whatever they want? It's their fault. This is what tourists see when they visit the U.S.? How embarrassing!!!!!
-
When cops don’t wanna show their face on camera you know it’s bad
-
The stores need to press charges.. This whole, "we just want our stuff back", isn't helping. Press charges! Put these thieves in the system and make it uncomfortable for them. Letting them go just teaches them not to get caught next time. And maybe, just maybe, cut off their hands. I'm just saying. It'll also make them easier to spot the next time.
-
If they're not going to press charges, than you're on your own. Police officers are not there to simply collect the merchandise and bring it back to the store. They're there to take shoplifters to jail.
-
This isn't just crime. It's a total breakdown of society. It's also what happens when you name your kid, London.
-
In California, claiming yourself as a criminal will yield lighter punishment than being the hero.
-
I wouldn't want a item they touched tbh. Dirty fingers and possibly damaged. At that point it is just refurbished... Put em behind bars!
-
That’s the problem if nobody stop Them from stealing, they just tell their friends it’s a free-for-all
-
Shoplifting used to be a serious crime
-
If you cause a business to close its doors by stealing, that's a crime against your community and it should come with 20 years to life in prison.

I live down the street from these businesses and can’t believe they’re getting robbed this openly without a care in the world. This city has lost its mind and everyone except the sane people think that’s alright.
