Wow
How you plan that shyt with 80 people & nobody says it’s a bad idea????










The thefts are believed to be part of sophisticated criminal networks that recruit mainly young people to steal merchandise in stores throughout the country then sell it in online marketplaces. The thefts are ratcheting up as the holiday shopping season gets underway, experts and officials said.

The flash mobs are usually organized by local people who recruit their crews and send them to steal specific merchandise requested by criminal organizations throughout the country, Dugan said.

Those who do the stealing get paid between $500 and $1,000 to take as much as they can and bring it back to organizers who ship it to other parts of the country.

“Crew bosses organize them, they’ll give him the crowbars, and in some cases even rent them cars, or provide them with escape routes or a list of products to actually go out and steal. It looks very chaotic but it’s actually very well organized,” Dugan said.

Most of the flash mob robberies had been happening in stores near highways in suburbs where police response can be slower. But last year, the packs of robbers took advantage of protests following the murder of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis and ransacked stores in several cities, including San Francisco, Dugan said.

“It was meant to look like looting, but it really wasn’t. It’s a criminal entity employing other people to steal for them so they can profit by selling it online,” he said.

My point is poverty folks are lazy and don't want to work.
This is an insane thing to say.
And not only that but you are biased to the point of blindness.
Blindness because you just said that after several videos of thieves going into their mustangs, ferraris & lambo getaway cars.
These weren’t poor people, they the opposite of poor.

I don't care

The markup on those items has always been ridiculous

I hope they all escape and Rob more stores
It won’t be policed, so stores or their terrified employees take something into their own hands as this is happening at an increasing rate due to not policing it, someone dies, and you’ll have the “how did this happen it’s just shoplifting” discussion
