Beverly Hills business owners and residents are on high alert after millions of dollars of high-end jewelry and watches were stolen during a brazen broad daylight smash-and-grab burglary where the suspects used sledgehammers on Tuesday. Police said at least five masked suspects in black and gray hoodies broke through the thick, tempered glass window of Luxury Jewels of Beverly Hills located at the 200 block of South Beverly Drive at about 1:45 p.m.(Snip)Sedghi said it took the suspects eight or 10 times to hit the tempered glass with the sledgehammers before they were able to finally smash through it.

Ah the glories of the Utopia long promised us by the Dims finally arriving. May we be free in our gender movements while we burn physicality to the ground to make way for a virtual life on an internet owned and operated by the Chinese State Apparatus !!! Swipe left!

It's time to revive the "Pinkertons" or at least the "Dead or Alive" bounty system.

OP, it has nothing to do with cost. These burdens on society are used to 'deconstruct' society so the communist trash in charge can "rebuild" things in their twisted image.

A few junkyard dogs would deter the thieves. The dogs don't care if the intruder is an 'underserved community member'.

I talked to my very liberal aunt in LA all she did was complain about global warming and how the deniers should be arrested. She 90 so I let her go on and on about it. ugh.

The solution here is the old joke of “What’s black and brown and looks good on a smash-‘n-grabber?” Answer: “Three Dobermans.”

Cali's uber-liberal policies that mollycoddle criminals is the reason in the uptick in crime, that's no secret. But why an establishment like this doesn't have armed security guards front and center is a mystery. Maybe they should just place the counters on the street like a bazaar and show off cubic zirconia.

#6, agreed that they're creating domestic unrest intentionally, but in the same way that it's hard to manufacture anything in the USA because of costs imposed by government, even if a company wanted to, it's also incredibly expensive to keep prisoners in jail, even if they wanted to. Cost is one mechanism put in place to achieve their goals. Example, it costs $438,000 to lock up one person for a year at NYC's Rikers Island jail. About $379,000 of that is estimated to be personnel costs.

If it took 8 or 9 tries to smash the windows, wouldn't that be enough time for employees to grab their guns and shoot the trespassers? Or turn loose the dogs? I guess the locked doors and letting people in a few at a time wouldn't work here. So they lost millions. How much would security people cost? I don't have any sympathy until they start doing something to protect themselves. I remember the Koreans in LA kept someone on their roof with shotguns.

How much longer before insurance companies refuse to insure these places, and they are forced to close public showrooms?

Eyewitnesses claim the burglaries were perpetrated by a six foot tall woman who starred in a bad "sword and sandal" flick in which Arnold Schwarzenneger was a co-star.
Police are on the lookout for a Dean Stockwell, using the alias "Carlos". A detective Axel Foley has been seconded from the Detroit Police Department to aid in investigating the robberies.

Government employees refuse to prosecute criminals or to keep them in prison because that costs too much, given that they cannot run anything efficiently. And it's a complete mystery why crimes are becoming more and more outrageous.
