Terrorism you say? You bet, but the businesses are not without blame since most of the corporate owners don’t believe in having armed security to protect their employees and customers.
It’s a matter of time until some clerk or customer is murdered of left brain-dead by these hateful opportunists.
The stores rely on security cameras to be their salvation. The cameras are great but without eye-witness testimony the camera is nothing but inadmissible hearsay evidence in our courts. Most people don’t seem to know that. The only hope is police show dumb criminals the videos and they confess thinking the video is somehow absolute proof of their guilt.
The cure for the flash mobs is a strong equally or greater violent response. Strong-arm robbery with multiple offenders or where there is simply a disparity of force can be stopped by deadly force. Yes, you can shoot the thugs in the face.
These flash mobs offer a challenge since they capitalize on the laws we have barring exclusion of protected minorities from businesses, at least until they breach the peace. The stores are compelled to let them in but when they don’t use necessary force to apprehend or stop the thugs only invites them to return to victimize even more.
Chicago police don’t have the manpower or the support of this city’s political leadership to deal with the problem. Too many of Chicago’s Aldermen are as lawless and immoral as the flash mob thugs. They are already equating this crime as “Robin Hood wealth redistribution” taking from the rich to give to the poor.
Today’s Ghetto Rat thugs have cell-phones and great transportation to travel around and commit these kinds of crimes. The businesses can either deal harshly with the thugs or simply go out of business. The quality of life in the Windy City has remarkably fallen as Ghetto Rat tolerance and poor police service has fed on itself.
I only see an increase in this and all forms of Black on White crime in Chicago. I wish I could offer some easy solution but White flight is what follows this in American history. Today the suburbs can no longer be a refuge. Government’s social engineers have sent Chicago’s Ghetto Rats to newly acquired Section Eight housing in virtually every suburb.
The real solution is to stop running and start fighting. Courts, prosecutors and police have to redirect their efforts and resources away from the Drug War and victimless crime. The only real answer is to put thugs in jail for keeps.
