A distressing new crime trend known as 'flash rob mobs' is on the rise and likely to cost California a whopping $19billion a year, guidance from the LAPD warns. The incidents have become increasingly frequent in soft-on-crime California, where detectives in the state's largest police force are now assembling designated teams to tackle the problem. The groups have been pillaging stores including Nordstrom and Versace. In response to the recent spate, officials at the Los Angeles Police Department have formed a taskforce, named the the Organized Retail Crime Taskforce (ORCT).

"task force" That's a spit take. Maybe they will slap them on the wrist really hard with a feather. But it's more likely that any police officer they assign to do some enforcing will likely end up in jail instead of the perps.

Allow the store owners to hire security. Two at the front door with oozies, and at least one inside with a machine gun.

Set up a task force? These people are not afraid of jail. They're selling their loot on eBay, and on the street. Why not just start shooting looters? The looting will stop when some of these brazen thieves wind up two dimensional, ventilated. Or, going the more labor intensive route, when large numbers of thieves are rounded up and given real prison terms. How does law enforcement throw a net over a Louis Vuitton store? In this life, you get what you put up with. If criminals aren't dealt with with properly, entire areas might be without any retail stores. Stolen completely out of business. No excuse.

How about something novel like enforcing the law. Oh! sorry I forgot, these deviants and thieves are a protected class. Whenever government does not want to deal directly with a problem / crime they form a committee or task force to delay taking action and spread the blame for any minor action they may take. "We were only doing what the committee (notice unnamed individuals) told us to do". Not one of these incompetent bureaucrats is willing to make a decision that impacts directly on the minorities involved.

In a different New York City, long ago, like in the 60 with saner people in charge, NYPD ran a "stakeout squad" because of the very violent and frequent robberies occurring in small stores in NYC. They'd set up a team of two or three officers, hidden behind some sort of a temporary barricade, often in a raised position, and assigned their best marksmen to this squad. Jim Cirillo became a bit of a legend for a substantial number of gunfights, often against multiple shotgun wielding robbers. The robbers went either to the morgue or the hospital, and after a few years of great success, the pukes at city hall lost their nerve and disbanded the stakeout squad, unfortunately. While it was working, crime dropped a lot in NYC. Similar squads would work here....but there are certainly no politicians or top police leaders today who would have to stomach to do what needs to be done.

Editorial: I wish it were otherwise but the only way I see to handle the problem is severe sentences to any rob mob member caught. Even if the person(s) caught in the act were just tools recruited by more clever leaders. In other words, drop the idea that all consequences must seem "fair" when dealing with an organized criminal activity. When the word goes out that life sentences are being imposed for, "Gee, it was just a fun robbery and trashing and a way to make me a quick $100" the allure of particpating will quickly diminish. Of course if you want more, not less, of these orgranized lootings then form a commission of experts to study how and what might someday possibly be done. IOW, ask Newsom, status quo, and full speed ahead.

“No man,” said Abraham Lincoln, “has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.” Sadly, that excellent piece of indisputable presidential wisdom hasn’t filtered down to the current occupant of the White House. Joe Biden is a terrible liar in every sense; he lies on a terrible scale, and he’s terrible at lying. And as much as I’d like to be kind to an old man and put his constant untrue statements down to memory issues caused by his advanced age and cognitive decline, it’s not because of that at all. No, President Biden just likes to tell humongous self-promoting whoppers, again and again and again.

Biden's Monday morning filing cites two major examples in IRS agents Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, two whistleblowers who claimed the IRS mishandled aspects of its investigation into Biden. Biden's lawsuit seeks for the court to declare that the IRS "willfully, knowingly, and/or by gross negligence, unlawfully disclosed Mr. Biden's confidential tax information." In addition, Biden is demanding $1,000 in damages for "each and every unauthorized disclosure of his tax returns,"
