It's not a commonly used term here either. I'd never heard it before and had to look it up. Most people just call them wire cutters.Thank you.
It's got a very different meaning in the UK!
You really think these robberies are "jobs"?With all the mandates these past two years and the many families that have lost their livelihood because of them, perhaps these types of jobs are becoming more common out of desperation and necessity. Although quite unfortunate, these incidents in particular seem to be part of a logical progression from the overbearing draconian mandates and oppression that are continuing to be forced on society.
I say it started with looting in cities like Minneapolis were looters empied stores.A California Nordstrom ransacked in less than a minute or two by a gang of 80 with 25 cars.

At least 2 employees assaulted, theives used crowbars to smash things. At least 2 arrest. One suspect had a gun. A near by restaraunt had to lock it's doors once they realized what was going on for safety
$20 000!! That's a hell of a lot of make up, or an insurance hype.This method of criminal theft has spread to the east coast with a Philadelphia area store/Ulta hit by 5 theives rushed in and out taking 20,000 dollars of stuff in 40 seconds. Not as violent but these are gateway entry level criminals.

This was different than the west coast in they took beauty products instead of electronics or high end stuff/clothes.

Why would you assume this has anything to do with Black Lives Matter? This is gang activity and they need to be caught and punished as harshly as the law will allow.Who WAS the gang? Was this BLM? Students? Who?
Absolutely. This is organized planned theft even if something pops up on social media at the last minute. It's not about shoplifters or a few dollars under the felony charge threshold. These are criminals planning and executing their plans in an aggressive/violent manner and selling the stolen merchandise for profit.......
@WhatInThe ...that they were let go is crazy! The whole thing is crazy!!
