They maybe more confident and organized but many are still wearing their pants on the ground. Maybe they decided they needed to steal a more modern look.
Bear spray used on security guards in SoCal robbery involving 30 to 50 people
- Thread starter Myrtle
- Start date
Some security measures can bite the customer on the behind. Within the past month, I patronized a store that uses largely hidden security tags that in my case the harried clerk failed to remove upon checkout. The same store also doesn’t want to bag your purchase to “protect the environment” by reducing plastic bag waste. So as I walked out the door, unbagged purchase in hand, I set off loud security alarms due to the presence of the unremoved security tag. Fortunately I had my register receipt to prove to the world that I had bought the item, and the clerk was left red-faced.
Guess I just needed a little more excitement in my shopping experience…

Indeed ... and shoot to kill.
It would only need to happen a couple of times .... then likely the street thugs would get the message.
So I just looked at Nordstrom's site and there are those YSL purses going for $1780. There's something crazy right there.
Anyone who buys one of these from a questionable source should know they are contributing to the violence and theft, and anyone who goes into the store to buy them should ask themselves why? I bought a cute little cross-body purse that looks just like one of them, only without the YSL, for about twenty dollars a few weeks ago. I wish I hadn't wasted that money because I can't get used to the long strap.
Why does anyone need a designer label to tell everyone else how much money they have to waste? Remember when an "expensive" purse was one made of real leather that cost about twice as much as the cheap one? Not 100 times as much, just twice as much. Why are we such slaves to the fashion industry? It's one thing to pay more for quality but paying more for a label is just nuts.

With a lot of stolen stuff it winds up going over seas. They say that's where. a lot of stolen cars are going. Probably the same with high end merchandise. As Tish noted I'd check online auction sites. I was told several years ago by big ebayer that he was sending a lot of stuff to the far east including Japan on legit stuff.

So, the wild west, except with more fire power, and even less control. No thanks. JImB.
Not going down for the Massa, no thank you. I'll protect what is already mine, not theirs. Might join the anarchy before I'd put my life on the line for some rich persons wealth. No way.
