crime surges in the USA

[22lcidw]

Crime was rising during Trump.. I bet that is Biden's fault also.

In Prog areas mostly. Some times we all have to admit it is us that cause our own problems.

 

[Orangecat]

I believe the taller of the two men is in fact a terrorist.

You also think there are dozens of genders.

You do realize that comments like that may you look foolish, yes?

Again, the police do not have to protect individuals or their property. It is the responsibility of all citizens to defend themselves and business owners have the same responsibility to protect their merchandise. Hire security to stop the thievery or let it go.

.Crime has always existed no matter who is president.

Which is why I do not understand why people think the cops will save them, and I do not understand why we must pay cops through taxes so they can extort us for money to retire upon.

so police do not have to protect people and their property from criminals in your alternate world. people have to protect themselves from criminals . so we have to be vigilantes and take justice in our own hands

The Supreme Court has ruled on this before. I believe it is three times before.

The "social contract" is a one-way street. You pay your taxes or go to jail. In return, the government may or may not provide some of those services you

Americans don't negotiate with terrorists.

After that meeting the guy on the left stopped lobbing missiles towards Japan.

Crime rates were rising before the election especially hate crimes.

Antifa and BLM certainly weighted those stats.

Yes, and Trump never once tried to negotiate with them like Oblama did.

Negotiating with terrorists does not help.

It must since the US has done it for decades.

Yep. Only we get to do that.

So if it is the responsibility of the businesses to protect the merchandise, how should they go about doing it? What would be a good deterrent to prevent a perpetrator from going in a store and stealing?

Much like the police, a business owner’s hands are tied when it comes to protecting merchandise. You mentioned private security. Can the security guard pull a firearm on the suspect or get physical with him or her? How about tasing the suspect? If the security guard follows or shadows suspects throughout the store, the suspect will sue the business for “profiling” or harassment.

Then, to add ultimate insult to injury, businesses refuse to locate in areas notorious for all of the challenges I listed above and businesses are labled “racist” for not setting up shop.

Not as much on the domestic side.

Sounds almost as bad as the loss of business through corporate manipulation of markets.

There are no terrorists in that picture, sparky. Think better.

True. Merely "employers"

It’s worse. In this case it is the government limiting how much a business can mitigate its risk or as in the case of a small business owner, a means to protect their livelihood.

Each state has it's own laws pertaining to shoplifting so it would be hard to say just one retort about shoplifting mitigation.

 

[justinacolmena]

Yes this is dementia joe's America, where criminals have the right to practice their craft in an unobstructed safe manner and police officers are demonized

Wake up, sheeple. Gun-grabbing Democrat cops are in cahoots with the thieves, and there's no due process of law for innocent folks falsely accused in America's city-hall-driven mafia court system.

You say that now. Wait until a Texas or Florida gives businesses more control over shoplifting mitigation. For example, Florida could say that a business' liability could be limited if they choose to have security guards or store personnel inspect personal bags before and after patrons leaving the store. Guarantee the ACLU will have just one retort. But, at a certain point, both the individual rights and rights of the business need to be protected.

Take a stadium or arena. Right now due to heightened security, all must enter through a metal detector and be subject to personal inspection including bags and purchases. Is that where we are headed with stores and businesses?
