San Francisco Walgreens shoplifter
seen filling bag with stolen goods
arrested while 'clearing shelves': cops

Original Article

The man allegedly seen in viral video stealing a garbage bag full of items as he rode a bike through a San Francisco Walgreens location was nabbed over the weekend – while he was "clearing shelves" at a different drug store, officials have announced. Jean Lugo-Romero was arrested around 8:30 a.m. Saturday after officers spotted him entering a store on Haight Street, San Francisco Police Department said in a recent press release. At the time, police officers who recognized him followed Lugo-Romero, 40, into the drug store "to find him clearing shelves of cosmetics and placing the merchandise into a duffel bag,"

Comments:

Probably an illegal alien. The arrest is a good start, but note that it didn't happen until the 7th massive shoplifting crime. And there is a big gap between "arresting" and even filing charges now in SanFran, let alone convicting and sending to prison.
In the article it mentions that the prosecutor, domestic terrorist son and avowed Marxist Boudin's office reports that they are reviewing the case and will decide tomorrow.
I'm betting that they turn him loose with no charges, or charge with something akin to jaywalking and give him a $50 fine or similar.

So did he take over the $950 daily limit? If not, than he will be turned right back out on the street with all charges dropped by the Soros DA.

Soooooo???!!! They will let him out of jail. No bail and will not be prosecuted. That’s nice that they caught him but nothing will happen to him. The expense of hiring a public defender will not justify an ongoing court case and possible incarceration. How much time would he get if convicted? One year, out in six months? Not going to happen.

I'm thinking those cosmetics add up pretty quick. $1k would not be out of the question. I'm betting the Mayor or PD chief had more to do with this than anything else.

The last paragraph sure got my attention. Authorities have recovered more than $8 million in stolen merchandise. That is probably a drop in the bucket of the actual stolen loot. How do Frisco retailers recover their losses from this rampant theft? Insurance, maybe increasing the price of goods sold, closing stores, etc. Is that what the voters in Pelosi's district want? What does San Fran Nan have to say about this disaster? Crickets....

I'm sure every retailer in the city is looking at options for getting out. They can't afford to do business in this climate.

A broom stick in his bike spokes would slow him down. So would a couple friends paid to stay there with mace & baseball bats. If that fails increase the risk of shoplifting. Use your imagination. Only rule is there are no rules.

Remaining stores will have all merchandise behind plexiglass, and the customers will have to request every item. And that will be called racist. My sympathy meter has flat-lined, though. They voted for garbage, now they can live with it.

I would be surprised to learn that the SF Walgreen stores can even buy affordable insurance on the open market. They are large enough to self-insure it from the profit derived from the nationwide chain in real America. Can't imagine that most Mom and Pop stores are still operating .....

A former South Carolina state trooper who led the 2015 cold case involving an alleged fatal hit-and-run is speaking out exclusively to Fox News, describing how the prominent Murdaugh family refused to cooperate with the investigation, and he was suspicious of the circumstances surrounding the young victim’s death. Todd Proctor was the lead state police investigator working the unsolved death of 19-year-old Stephen Smith, who was alleged to have been killed by a hit-and-run driver in Hampton County six years ago. The cold case was recently reopened as state law enforcement agents continue to investigate the deaths of Maggie Murdaugh, 52, and her 22-year-old son, Paul Murdaugh.

Move over, Jeffrey Epstein. Another high-profile prisoner has been found dead in his jail cell before his trial, with authorities claiming suicide. John McAfee, who wrote the first commercial anti-virus software, sold the company bearing his name, and later urged customers to uninstall the software, was widely described as "eccentric." He lived for a while in Belize but left that country in 2013 after being wanted for questioning by police over a murder. He made and lost most of a fortune believed to have totaled $100 million. McAfee was arrested in October last year at Barcelona Airport at the request of U.S. authorities

This is huge. Those of us who have had hopes that Saudi Arabia can be transformed from a sponsor of hard-line jihad into a modernizing force in the Islamic world have cause for optimism. Remarks made by the real ruler of Saudi Arabia, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS), suggest that he is carefully laying the ground for a fundamental reinterpretation of orthodox Islam. Tarek Fatah, a fellow at the Middle East Forum, writes in the Toronto Sun: When the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, challenged the fundamental precepts of Islamic Sharia in an interview on April 28

A New Jersey school board has reversed plans to remove all holiday names from their school calendar after parents expressed outrage at an emergency meeting on the decision. The Randolph Board of Education voted 8-1 Monday to reinstate the holidays after dozens of members of the community voiced outrage during the public comment portion of the meeting. Tom Tatem, a Randolph Township father of four who created a petition demanding school board members resign, and James Jacobi, a Randolph Township father of three, told "Fox & Friends" Tuesday that the victory should be a lesson in transparency for towns across America.

In the last two days, three interesting stories have emerged from the Middle East. The first story is about Ebrahim "the Butcher" Raisi's election as president in Iran; the second is Israel's announcement that this election forces it to protect itself against this butcher; and the third is news that Iran's sole nuclear power plant abruptly shut down. The first and second stories are quite obviously connected. The real question is whether the third story is a promise of things to come or is just a coincidence. That Raisi was going to be president is no surprise to regular American Thinker readers.

Schadenfreude overload: MSNBC's
Nicolle Wallace suffers 80% ratings

I have despised Nicolle Wallace ever since I learned of the ways she sabotaged the vice presidential run of Sarah Palin, whom she was supposedly helping run for national office. In my book, she is a vile snake. Since then, she has gone as fully left as David Brock, another onetime conservative who went to the dark side, trying for years to get Rush Limbaugh thrown off the air, destroy Fox News, and discredit every conservative. Wallace's show on MSNBC thrived while there was the Trump presidency to attack and spew hatred at. But it turns out that without Trump, not too many people want to watch her.
The Utter Uselessness of Climate Change 'Science' 9 replies

As I have learned the hard way, the science behind climate change has no more predictive real-world value than the science behind COVID. When put to the test, scientists cannot tell you what will happen next year, let alone next century, but that does not stop them from pretending they can. Three years ago, my new neighbor here on Lake Erie asked if I wanted to go in with him on a seawall. Having spent thirty summers on the Rust Belt Riviera, I politely declined. As I explained, on only one occasion during those years had waves lapped against even the base of my heavily vegetated ten-foot bank.
The damage done by probability blindness 9 replies
Posted by DVC 6/17/2021 6:48:51 PM Post Reply
As Bishop Joseph Butler said in 1736, "probability is the very guide of life." The coronavirus has generated more blind fear than perhaps any other event in recorded history. That fear is blind because it ignores easily calculated probabilities. The reported coronavirus deaths in the U.S. now stand at six hundred thousand. The population of the U.S. is approximately 330 million. When you divide deaths by the population, the number is less than two-tenths of one percent. As catastrophes go, that is a relatively small number. There is a wide disparity of coronavirus deaths among age groups. That fact has been deliberately ignored

A community in Atlanta has decided to separate from the city and create its own police force. Bill White, the Buckhead City Committee CEO, said the decision comes as crime in Atlanta has skyrocketed and police are not being properly funded. White told Bill Hemmer on "America's Newsroom" that he estimates nearly 80 percent of his community will vote in favor of the separation. "We have two bills in the Georgia legislature dropping in January to decide this referendum ballot," White said. "We filed our divorce papers at the city of Atlanta, and our divorce is final."

In a June 18 tweet, Rep.

Nancy Pelosi spoke today about “the root causes” of the January 6 Capitol riot: “the white supremacy, the anti-Semitism, the Islamophobia, all the rest of it that was so evident when you see a sweatshirt on one of the people saying, ‘Camp Auschwitz.’” She repeated the common and yet completely unsubstantiated claim that the Capitol incident constituted an “insurrection,” and once again claimed that Trump “incited” the “insurrection,” in flagrant disregard for the fact that Trump told the demonstrators to remain peaceful. Her list of the three “root causes” of this sham “insurrection” were, in effect, a list of those that she and the Biden Justice Department intend

A Federal Aviation Administration advisory group is urging the agency to replace words like “airman” and “cockpit” with gender-neutral terms like “aviator” and “flight deck.” The FAA’s Drone Advisory Committee put forth the recommendations in a report released Wednesday, part of a broader push for equity in the agency and aviation industry. “Research shows that the utilization of gender-neutral language can lead to a more inclusive environment that draws more people to the industry and helps keep them there,” the report states. The committee offered several alternatives for terms commonly used in the industry, such as using “manufactured” or “fabricated” instead of “man-made.”

As the Marxist revolution oozes forward, I occasionally wonder what will happen to the useful idiots when the commies seize absolute power in this once great Republic. I believe that most AT readers are familiar with the term, but for those who need a brief refresher, a useful idiot, as defined by Wikipedia, "is a derogatory term for a person perceived as propagandizing for a cause without fully comprehending the cause's goals, and who is cynically used by the cause's leaders." In my opinion, this definition can be applied to a majority of the young, brainwashed radicals who have no idea about the true history of Marxism
