17 S.F. Walgreens Stores Forced to Close after Mass Shoplifting

[FreeAndClear]

@Samm

Again, you (very deliberately) missed the point. Instead of focusing on what I said, you focused only on the words “mass crime,” which by extrapolation from other mass crimes, is a crime committed in unison by four or more individuals. Calling shoplifting sprees by groups who swarm into a store and take what they want a “mass crime” is not an inappropriate description and you know it.

Mind boggling response. Please let me know what you think my point was in calling hysteria - hysteria.

[Samm]

I don’t know … maybe you’re being hysterical.

They should close every single Walgreens in SF.

These no account thugs don’t deserve a store.

And what about those who depend on them?

They should close every Walmart in surburbia where shoplifting occurs. Or any store where shoplifting occurs

Anywhere they boldly walk in and walk out with 900 dollars worth of merchandise yes they should.

What’s wrong with you guys that you appear to solidly back criminals??

The store doesn’t care if the person is charged with a crime. It’s still a loss.

Nobody in this thread has backed criminals. You are arguing against a cartoonish version of libs

This most threads around here. And the sad part is that many of them actually believe it.

@Hexenbiest

Walgreens weren’t the only ones complaining about theft, if I remember correctly Target said they lost 400 million due to crime. If people ignore it they will start hiring armed guards to the stores and we will start looking more like some third world ■■■■■■■■■

The current M.O. seems to be to put more and more merch behind locked cases. Really sucks too because you have to track down an employee just to get something like toothpaste.

@FreeAndClear

Where? I mean seriously wheee am i defending thieves?

I am not arguing against their prosecution. I am not arguing for stupid decisions like not charging people with theft under 900 dollars.

I am saying that the thefts are politicized. Especially aorund election time and then we come to find out that it was exaggeration for hysteria sake.

But there are areas where DA’s are doing exactly what you are saying you are not arguing for…Dallas for example. When a DA decides they will not enforce existing laws, that DA is the one who has politicized the law. The response will necessarily also be political.

Well, for example, my local Walgreens is the closest pharmacy in a over a mile.

If they want a close by Walgreens then the thieves should stop stealing.

Very simple.

If I was Walgreens i would shut down every SF pharmacy.

Most of Walgreen’s customers aren’t thieves.

If I was Walgreens i would shut down every SF pharmacy.

If I was Walgreens I’d base on whether or not I was still making enough profit after losses.

Yes. Very sure.

And thanks again.

You admit y’all are claiming to see things that aren’t really there?

[Samm]

Just never know when to stop, do you.

I’m trying to figure out how the cartoon posted proves your point when it does the opposite.

It’s just knee jerk.

It’s nice to see the ducks again, though.

What about under a mile?

And if your local Walgreens is the closest to you, would you not want to revise your local laws so it would be able to turn a profit and stay?

@fallenturtle

Most of Walgreen’s customers aren’t thieves.

It only takes a few stealing multiple times a day to (1) endanger the lives of the employees and customers and (2) lose profit.

Walgreens isn’t in the charity business.
