Your probably right. If I lived in SF I’d be looking into buying protection like a gun. The lunatics and criminals have taken over the asylum

And the point of Brazil, Chile, European countries, Australia / NZ … as well as all the years of the occurrences really should be obvious: these types of crimes are NOT new or unprecedented. That’s not a rationalization or normalization.

That’s information.

There is no value here because for the 10th time it's the scale and severity of the problem. Next time somewhere like Chicago sees 10 murders in a weekend are you going to point out how Des Moines, Iowa also has had murders too? That's basically what you're doing here.

It is in the US and locally.

And I’m not the one defining “looting” and flash robbery … law enforcement defines it. I just educated you.

Really gotta go. For now.

When it has nothing to do with the facts and information being discussed.

You and your sidekick are trying to define how people use it on this anonymous message board. No one cares and its pointless nitpicking.

He's right to do that because they are robberies; "Under California Penal Code section 211, a person is guilty of committing the crime of Robbery when they take the property of another by means of force or fear". In almost all of these incidents staff has been pushed, struck or injured or threatened. And if you work in concert with others, everyone is guilty of robbery - not just the one who had contact with the employee. It's much like someone being charged with homicide while waiting in a getaway car and someone is injured or killed by another participant.

Actually you were the one trying to define the terms and I tried to explain that you were factually incorrect.

Woke is an old term, but as I understand it, those who identify with the woke culture first starting using that terminology to describe themselves and conservatives jumped on it thereafter to make fun of the woke. Regardless, I think it is funny how not being a racist isn’t good enough, you must be anti-racist along with the rest of the woke worldview. It’s funny to me.

Long, long ago. To think, Republicans were governors all but 2 terms from 1967 to 1999. Seems like a hundred years ago, but it is only 20. The damage done in the past 20 years of continuous liberal rule is catastrophic.

No, you were the one that initially nitpicked at me referring to them as "looters" .

I hope you will bring one of these people who use the term "woke" to this board because I have yet to hear anyone other than a conservative use that word in the context you are describing.

1/3 of Americans identity as woke. So I’m not sure what to tell you. So there isn’t a anti-racist social Justice equity worldview to the point of insanity?
