Somehow this is the only country on earth where this seems to happen. When talking about shootings involving guns, okay, fine, the US is certainly an outlier there, but every country has cars and police.

This is murder.

    its not about saving corperations. When a community starts theft as you see in some us cities, it cascades to crime to other parts of the area as well, since it proves one can get away with crime. Letting people steal without repercussions hurts the citizen more than the few % of loss that the corporations will “suffer”. And as you have seen, some stores mysteriously closed in some areas or have increased prices.

      Oh yeah, sure, they increase prices because of “theft.” They’re honest corporations who would never increase prices for another reason like greed or price gouging.
