Target Closes 9 Stores Because of Theft

“You should not steal”, is one of the most understandable commandments for those who fear the Lord.  But when California announced they would quit arresting shoplifters for any theft under $1000 they opened the door for rampant theft.  Videos are everywhere of groups of masked folks (mostly black) running into stores and grabbing all they can and running out.

Stores can only tolerate only so much.  They aren’t in business to lose money.  Now notice the 9 stores they closed are all in far-left Democrat controlled cities.  Surprise!  Lawlessness will increase.

*******************

Part of the strategy included closing nine stores at the end of last October.

"We cannot continue operating these stores because theft and organized retail crime are threatening the safety of our team and guests, and contributing to unsustainable business performance," the company said in a statement at the time.

The closed stores included one in Harlem, New York City; two in Seattle; three near San Francisco and Oakland; and three in Portland, Ore.

At some hard-hit stores, Target also installed locking cases for "prone to theft" merchandise.
