Walgreens is shuttering another five of its stores in crime-ridden San Francisco because of rampant shoplifting by thieves who waltz past security guards and sell the items outside the drugstore chain's doors. The national chain has closed 17 of its 70 San Francisco locations in the past two years because of the shelf raiders, who have swiped everything not behind lock and key. Thefts in the chain's 53 remaining stores are five times the average for their stores elsewhere in the country, according to company officials. San Francisco and Walgreens officials have cited 'organized retail crime' -

When justice is abandoned people suffer. Law and order is a requirement in a free society. We cannot exist without it. Safety and security is the first duty of government and when that fails as it is now, chaos and violence will fill that void. This administration is creating a Mad Max world where only the ruthless survive. This is not something that has just organically happened, it is a strategy straight out of the Cloward-Priven ideology. Chaos is crucial to the total transformation of the country.

And yet I'll bet that the insane San Francisco leftist leaders are neither embarrassed by this nor motivated to change their crazy policies. Even worse, I'll bet that the nutty liberal voters are still OK with it too...so long as it only affects the poorer parts of the city. So, counterintuitively, the only way this is going to end in these cray-cray blue cities like San Crapcisco is when the legalized shoplifting spreads and expands in the wealthier parts of the city. Then, and only then, will the goofy leftist voters there finally get the message. And maybe not even then. So... Keep on looting, San Fran nannies! Enjoy.

The left never questions the "then what" part. It's all cool and groovy for the downtrodden to get free stuff from stores with no consideration for the reason somebody runs a store to begin with and how they will react. It's their way of putting a roof on their head and food on their table. When theft renders that impossible they stop running stores. Who among the left would take a 20% pay cut with absolutely no reaction? And given the thin margins in retail a small percentage of theft can wipe out ALL profits. But the franchise owner who sold his or her car and is on the verge of losing their house is greedy for wanting to not be robbed.

Thieves are sealing everything from stores to votes and on to the country while the dem pols fiddle. Lawlessnes abounds while law enforcement is shunned. Now the Biden Administration has even opened the borders for illegals from around the world to do whatever. This is as a slow moving train wreck which seems to be accelerating.

Relax, Walgreens. The rest of us out here in Fly Over Country will keep you afloat until you can gain back all that moolah from putting your employees onto the Unemployment Scams. It is always the tiny towns (like mine, population 39,930) that bail out the democrat-run biggest sows at the Govt. teat.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) called out Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) in an op-ed published in West Virginia’s Charleston Gazette Mail on Friday afternoon over his opposition to passing Democrat President Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion social spending bill.The nearly 1,000-word op-ed championed the social causes in the bill, promising to take on the “greed” of others and making sure that everyone pays “their fair share of taxes.”Sanders has tried to argue that it is wrong that Manchin and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) are opposing Biden’s Build Back Better agenda, writing, “2 senators cannot be allowed to defeat what 48 senators and 210 House members want.”

It’s no secret that plenty of people are unhappy with President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandates. What may be a surprise, however, is people expressing such opinions in the heart of liberal New York City. A billboard went up in New York’s famous Times Square, taking umbrage at Biden’s policy mandating all businesses with over 100 employees to impose a Covid-19 vaccine requirement for continued employment. “Hey Joe, time to let the mandate go! Stop making small businesses your vaccine police” says the banner, which was paid for by a conservative advocacy group, the Job Creators Network (JCN). The organization confirmed that the banner is a direct response to Biden’s

"Research obtained by a group of scientists shows the COVID vaccine spike protein can travel from the injection site and accumulate in organs and tissues including the spleen, bone marrow, the liver, adrenal glands and in 'quite high concentrations' in the ovaries." This is what Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of the mRNA technology warned about. The spike proteins are not staying at the injection site and they are dangerous. Protein in the blood can be very dangerous. A Canadian cancer vaccine researcher said last week, “We made a big mistake.

Four people were injured when a gunman leaned out of a passing SUV and sprayed the area with what sounded like an automatic weapon—a theory confirmed by witness testimonies and the ShotSpotter.The incident last Tuesday extended a string of shootings involving ordinary handguns and rifles that were modified into fully automatic weapons capable of firing up to 1,200 rounds per minute. The conversion process involves illegal devices commonly referred to as "Glock switches" or "auto-sears," which are readily available to buy on the internet or can be made on 3-D printers.
