Between 30 to 50 people swarmed the Nordstrom at the Westfield Topanga Mall in Woodland Hills, making off with thousands of dollars worth of luxury handbags and high-end clothing, an LAPD spokesman told NBC News.

When you value someone else’s stuff more than your own life then that’s all that needs to be said. Condoning criminality breeds criminals.
I never said anything about condoning criminality. I said valuing property higher than life isn’t right. I said this in another post a few days ago but I’ll say it again. I live in a high crime area and I am sick and tired of people stealing from not only me but my neighbors and from businesses that support the community’s needs. That doesn’t change the fact I think it’s morally repugnant to want to kill someone for property theft.
If we invested more in community building and opportunities along with courts and police departments upholding the law we would have less of these types of crimes. Where I live the police stopped policing because they got mad after several officers were charged with the murder of a kid they arrested. In my eyes that makes them the same as the people stealing from the community. The courts here rarely convict juveniles so the kids know they can get away with just about anything.
While I say I live in a high crime area I also know that overall in the US crime rates have been declining over the years especially violent crime rates.

It’s morally repugnant to threaten someone’s well-being over property. One begats the other. Cause and affect.
Interesting that the posterchild for criminality right now is defendant trump. The real criminals wear suits and commit crimes with a pen.

As does condoning those like yourself.
