Stealing Soho: Luxury retailers
terrorized by shoplifting mobs

Original Article

Bands of shoplifters are terrorizing Soho’s high-end boutiques, lifting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of designer merchandise, and in some cases, threatening security guards to keep quiet—or be labeled racist, The Post has learned. The disturbing pattern began in late May during the riots that rocked the city in the wake of the George Floyd police custody death. High-end Celine was looted of $1.5 million in merchandise then, and the blatant thievery continues “every week” in ritzy stores such as Prada, Moncler, Dior and Balenciaga, one plugged-in local said.(Snip) You have huge bouncers out there trying to deter

Comments:

Luxury retailers sustain losses from packs of bLACK grab-and-go thieves, with many shying away from trailing them in the store lest they be labeled "racist" by an emotional Person of Color using her Obamaphone to film the proceedings. At some point the losses will become unsustainable, the stores will pull up stakes, and agitators will say racist stores have created a Luxury Goods Desert.

I disagree with #1. It is a breakdown of a part of our society. The majority of the population is going about living their lives in a normal manner. The breakdown is limited to the democrat controlled sewers.

Sounds like the store management is more fearful of accusatory social media messages than they are of the thug thieves and loss of valuable property. Eventually the customers will stop coming and employees will refuse to work.

FTA: "Bands of shoplifters are terrorizing Soho’s high-end boutiques, lifting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of designer merchandise, and in some cases, threatening security guards to keep quiet—or be labeled racist." Ah yes...Stevie Nicks new video "repeatedly juxtaposes images of Black Lives Matter protests with the civil rights marches of the 60s." So BLM thugs are just the same as those who marched peacefully in the 60's with MLK.I think MLK might beg to differ. This BLM organization is using black people as cannon fodder. They care no more about black lives than the average KKK member. If (hopefully not when) they get there way and Socialism and Anarchy rule the land, those on top will have no more use for them and black people will be no more important that any other peasant peon.

This is what happens after years of the left telling blacks they have a right to steal and rob because they were “oppressed”. Their intelligence of the ghetto blacks is too low for them to realize that they are being exploited by the Democrat Party. The stores will eventually move to safer places and another nice area will become a street of empty boarded up stores. I would not like to be a landlord in any Dem big city. It won’t be long until you lose your tenants and there goes more tax revenue that the bankrupt city can’t afford to lose.

Those do-called luxury retailers should vote for Biden then within a few months they will all be out of business with their stores looted and burned out. Biden is not about to clamp down on the looters and arsonists as they are his base, but only a small percentage actually vote, as most can’t even read the instructions on the ballots.

The highlight of the Black Lives race riots for me was watching Macy’s at 34th St. looted by bands of Blacks while the NYPD was just standing there and watching then leave loaded with Freebie reparations. We must abandon fear, have the stones of a President Trump. No arrests were made, the NYPD is yellow like the FBI.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
