The downside to that is that in many of these neighborhoods, they don't have many retailers for fresh goods outside of street vendors and small shops. The problem is creating food deserts all over again. Target needs to hire armed security for the doors.

It is so surreal to see the megalithic gothic architecture inhabited and destroyed by chimps

They all stood behind woke ideology that praises criminals and glorifies theft and violence, they should be celebrating this and opening more stores in violent neighborhoods. I am completely with the looters on this one, they are just doing what they are being encouraged to do.

We already know what to do. Rudy GUILIANI turned NYC around with his implementation of the “Broken Window Theory” - to fine, prosecute every minor refraction. But all those people vote DEMOCRAT and it will only continue ie tk get worse.

They should just sell everything from behind a front cou te

wonder who the locals voted for?

It doesn't matter how you define woke. What it really matters are the results woke brings: total lawlessness, anarchy, street violence, theft, crime, open zombie land.

If she voted democrat, that’s on her

I hope she learns from this & begins voting for politicians that will bring back tough-on-crime policies.

@JimDavis-si7he I mostly agree with you, but I don’t like the blue’s view of trying to rehabilitate criminals or feeling sorry for them. Criminals must be punished so severely that they never think to commit crime again.

I feel bad for her,too .She has worked there for 13 years. I don't give a damn who she voted for,she did not vote for this.And why are some people assuming she voted Democrat,because she is black?Show some compassion,people .

I blame the parents that “raised” them

Yes we just got rid of our shitty DA in my area!

I blame the black people.

IDK if i can blame the parents... I mean they are also the ones who join their kids in stealing... its a culture thing.., we set them free to be humans and yet they refuse to join the rest of humanity in living in peace instead they rather steal then get a real job and work for a living..... you dont see the illegals crossing the border do this shit.. it's funny that 3rd world countries act more civil then the black ppl we set free over 100 years ago...

They're too busy trying to charge Trump of random things.

I remember when it opened it was a huge asset. there weren't many targets in Manhattan at the time.

Just the selfishness of the thieves is astounding. It hurts the entire community and especially the elderly. The laws have to change! Prosecute ALL shoplifters no matter what the total amount they steal is. Also, let's start having some productive community service added to their jail time and fines. Like cleaning up the parks, helping out at homeless shelters, and give them a time limit on finding a JOB or back to jail. The old guy buying eggs really touched my heart. Where's he going to shop now?🥺🙏

@@acestarone I hope these shoplifters don’t come to the Bronx and ruin our targets. Luckily only a few Walgreens and CVS close down over here from looting but Targets have cops.

None of you blame the democrats? OK, you dummies deserve what happens to you in life!

I have an idea - “re education camp “ 😂😅

Democrats are passing laws so that you can steal with impunity.

I have one too - it's called Donald Trump.@@muhahahake7158

Tell that to corrupt politicians that steals, lies, deceive, and cheat without any consequences or repudiations. This is why, every politicians needs to be vetted for history of criminal behavior as people mimics these individuals as role models. Just because one can become politician does not mean they should. Criminals begets criminals.

Bring back the 3 strike law

This is only happening in areas with a high percentage of a certain racial demographic, so the store closings must be due to racism. The same racism that causes them to get more police action, and be incarcerated at a higher rate. It certainly has nothing to do with having a sick culture of violent criminality and a false sense of entitlement that they use as an excuse to justify their bad behavior.

I remember that. The kids are probably grown still committing crimes.

I lived in Brooklyn from 2010-2013 visited that store twice. I remember hearing about that incident

You are 100% Correct! I bet it's because we're both from Texas a RED State! We educate ourselves on facts! What really happens you allow this BS to continue to effect the store's insurance, employees and gotten line! Come to Texas act like an animal, then you'll understand why we have open carry laws! And it's people that go to the range and practice all the time and are educated on the laws that come with that responsibility!! Thugs need to GET A J O B, and STOP being a POS and stealing from HARD WORKING AMERICA'S!!

yea I feel sorry for people who will lose job, store like this hires a lot people and what they gonna do now? crime only increases crimes. target has some nice affordable prices and now some people might not afford good quality food because other places might be overpriced

Lets say what it really is, these cities won't prosecute black people

She voted to be jobless! Suks huh?

Actually, she made ME laugh! 'Jes disrespectful to dis sto-wa ya unnerstan what I'm sayin' dey jes disrespected dis sto-wa' 😂🤣

the biggest resource is raising kids right. these parents likely never had control over their kids, they probably barely have control of themselves. then you give the mentality of the poor criminal element free reign, no other result than this *could* happen.

it's not criminal activity, it's shopping using the BLM discount

No police or national guard. Police were you live, your community. You stop them from looting stores, then have the police arrest them. Being arrested by the police means nothing if they know that when they get out they can do it again because the community is going to allow it.

Funny how they only closed in the ultra left wing cities... it's almost like it's a disease.

@@TracyMarie71 That would work fine, except that you would be arrested for assault and battery because you tried to stop the shoplifter.

Obviously the thieves are selfish opportunists who dont care about the "community."

​@@duckmercy11the community allows and creates these types of people. They don't just randomly pop up. You can find lots of examples where theft isn't rampant in good communities with good family values.

The movie planet of the apes came out in 1969. When blacks move into a neighborhood one could say rightfully there goes the neighborhood. Now with their numbers and lack of intelligence in voting or believing the pandemic and wearing mask.

So the Chinese will save civilization but for us we’re dead.

Sharia law could solve this problem and also cure the gay community. BTW they can use the empty store to house illegal migrants

They also dismember journalists, so no thanks

@samuraiman7777it’s not overkill at all, if it stops the stealing! It would only take a few examples and the rest would fall in line.

@samuraiman7777, I doubt they want to work 😂.

At the very least we could start with criminals being forced to pay restitution to the businesses and tax payers for court proceedings. If they don’t have the money then they should be forced to work off the debt until its paid. This will never happen though.

And then they cry racism because the stores are forced to close in their neighborHOOD. That's what happened when Walmart closed a store in Chicago after it was looted and destroyed. After the people cried about it Walmart tried to do the right thing by reopening the store again, only to shut it down again a short time later due to rampant theft. You can't expect businesses to remain open when they can't turn a profit due to theft. It's heartbreaking that the decent people who live in these areas must suffer the consequences because of the selfish criminals.

Thugs do not care about their community!🤦‍♀️

They don’t think like that, only think about themselves

They are collecting reparations. From themselves, lmfao. You reap what you sow.

Maryland usa a target

If they are not blaming nothing they must be blaming something.

The United States uses military resources meant to keep us safe to spy on, torture, groom, and harass victims of pedophilic abuse. Victims are groomed and forcibly shown deviant sexual content at ages as young as 6 years old. They hack the household devices, including hijacking the television while a child is up and alone. They are forcibly shown deviant content involving animals or disgusting acts that would be illegal for an adult. They target victims this young because this is the age that fetishes are developed and children this young are not capable of understanding what they are seeing is not normal. They are intentionally grooming defenseless children into deviant sexualities. This is also a way to shame victims into silence, they think the more deviant and depraved they are with children, they will be less likely to speak out about what happened to them out of shame. In person they will encourage children below puberty to engage in deviant sexual acts and try to convince them this is normal behavior. Both children and adults are molested and raped through the use of substances that render them unconscious and the only reason a victim might know that something has occurred is because they leave body fluids in or around the victim. When the victims get older there is use of an advanced AI that alters content that they see by inserting references and imagery that would seem normal to other people but has special meaning to the torture victim. This will be repeated again and again indefinitely. This is both for the purposes of psychological torture and to provoke violence Some people are being intentionally tortured throughout their entire lives, they may target them because they think they are easy prey or maybe they were just attracted to that particular child. They use innocuous symbols because there is plausible deniability . A victim that was groomed by pedophiles is repeatedly shown something related to their exploitation. Like a rapist that rapes a woman with a common object for the purposes of torture. They want the victim to relive the trauma as much as possible. The use of weaponized AI would manipulate algorithms to show them what the torturers wanted them to see. The AI would do the grunt work of content modification and categorization.

@@powertothesheeple5422 Yes, all police forces need military weapons to keep order in the streets of any American city.

But by all means, lay the blame on any meme if it makes you fell better.

Better to plan for changes because NO job is permanent!

You obviously dont know what "defund" the police MEANS, it has nothing to do with eliminating funding police and everything to do with re-allocating money wasted on paying six heavily armed swat style cops going out in 3 patrol cars over a DOG BARKING complaint! it means using funds currently wasted on sending six heavily armed swat team equipped cops out on a dog barking complaint is better spent on having an animal control officer trained in dealing with dogs and not equipped or trained to use a 9mm semi automatic to empty it into the barking dog- go out on the call INSTEAD, and with a cage and noose! How many cops did it take to shoot this dog in his own garage while an ACO already had him under control with a catch pole?? Police funds and time there totally wasted, not to mention the LAWSUIT the city had to pay: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7oz4IXVgWm0.html The back story is the dog was in the garage and accidentally hit the garage door opener, the door opened, he was wandering around on his OWN property, a neighbor called the POLICE, and instead of just having the ACO deal with it, SEVERAL armed cops stormed the house, and instead of just putting the dog back in the garage and shutting the door or letting the trained animal control officer deal with the dog- they shot him 5 times and killed him, narrowly missing the ACO in the process as the bullets sprayed all over the driveway! And HERE is what those renegade cops cost the city for this dumb stunt; over a quarter of a million dollars in a lawsuit; "Commerce City pays $262,500 to family whose dog was killed ... www.denverpost.com › 2016/01/25 › commerce-city-p... Jan 25, 2016 - The Animal Law Center in 2013 filed a civil suit in the case on behalf of Branson that was pending in federal court when the settlement was ..." Now, don't you think city police funds and time would have been better allocated NOT sending several armed cops out on things like a loose dog call, but instead- sending the trained animal control office who has the knowlege, training and EQUIPMENT to capture the dog? Commerce City pays $262,500 to family whose dog was killed by cop Commerce City will pay a $262,500 settlement to a family whose 3-year-old dog, Chloe, was shot and killed by a police officer in 2012. The payout ends years of legal battles between Gary Branson, owner of the mixed-breed therapy dog, and Commerce City’s police department. The Animal Law Center in 2013 filed a civil suit in the case on behalf of Branson that was pending in federal court when the settlement was reached. Halstead said the payout was resolved in mediation. The Animal Law Center said the settlement was the largest of its kind. “I am happy that we have been vindicated,” Branson said. “She deserved justice for what happened to her. This has been a very difficult time for me and am glad that it is now settled.” Records show notice of the settlement was filed in court on Friday. A trial in the civil suit was set to begin in February. Chloe was killed on Nov. 24, 2012, when police were called to a Commerce City neighborhood about a dog running loose. Police tried to capture the dog with catchpoles and used a Taser before Officer Robert Price shot the dog five times. Same goes for mentally ill, homeless calls, drunk laying on the sidewalk calls and other such where other city agencies better trained and equipped to deal with those calls should be sent instead.
