Well, Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post Editorial Board is calling out business in a city besieged by black crime for locking up items black criminals are after, and hilariously notes sun screen and greeting cards are the only items NOT locked up… [Opinion: How do you fight shoplifting? Not by locking down everything in CVS., Washington Post, November 18, 2023]:
Shoppers visiting the CVS Pharmacy at 14th and Irving streets NW in Washington recently must think they traveled back in time to the Soviet Union. The store’s shelves are bare. The refrigerator cases are devoid of food or beverages. When we visited, only sunscreen and greeting cards were on display. But the bizarre scene is not a result of a failed planned economy; rampant theft is the cause. Shoplifters ransacked this CVS over two days early last month, and it hasn’t been restocked since. Weeks later, there’s still hardly anything to buy — or steal.
The CVS at 14th and Irving symbolizes extreme retail theft and the harms it can engender. Distressing and inconvenient to ordinary people, threatening to businesses and livelihoods, and repellent to tourists, unchecked shoplifting can corrode a community’s spirit.
It’s happening in the nation’s capital. The D.C. police department does not track shoplifting specifically but reports that theft in general is up 22 percent over last year. It is harder and harder to find a grocery or pharmacy in the District that doesn’t lock up laundry detergent, toilet paper and deodorant. A Giant in Southeast no longer even stocks certain name-brand health and beauty products that thieves target. A liquor store downtown is closing because of constant shoplifting. The H Street Walmart shuttered earlier this year. (The company said the store “hasn’t performed as well as we hoped.”)
The District ranks behind all but one state for retail theft, according to a new Forbes Advisor survey of small businesses. The situation in D.C. is emblematic of a national experience. The National Retail Federation recently reported a “dramatic jump” in stores’ financial losses between 2021 and 2022 — from $93.9 billion to $112.1 billion.
The best new impartial look at shoplifting trends is a recent report by the nonpartisan Council on Criminal Justice. The CCJ’s innovative methodology analyzed police records in 24 cities that track retail theft closely and found a mixed but troubling picture. As of mid-June, New York and Los Angeles saw surges of more than 60 percent compared with 2019, while the phenomenon has ebbed elsewhere.
To be sure, some theft has always been a cost of doing business for retailers. Kids grab the occasional candy bar; desperate parents sneak out with some extra diapers; workers swipe items during delivery and stocking. This is why many places in the United States, including D.C., make stealing less than $1,000 worth of goods a misdemeanor, not a felony.
Seattle, one of the cities where CCJ found that shoplifting is lower now than it was five years ago, offers a good model. The city identified more than 160 “high utilizers” responsible for the vast majority of recent misdemeanors such as shoplifting. Police were able to put these individuals in jail when they were caught. To deter others, Seattle police conduct surprise one-day crackdowns that lead to about 50 arrests each. “The strongest predictor to reduced criminal behavior is the belief they will get caught,” said Ernesto Lopez, lead author of the Council on Criminal Justice’s shoplifting report. Occasional, but unpredictable, bursts of strict enforcement can deter shoplifters at minimal cost to police.
The District and other cities need to get smarter about how they attack this crime. Otherwise, even more retail stores might find themselves going back to the U.S.S.R.
Here’s an idea: don’t let people shoplift and actively arrest those who do.
If black people are disproportionately committing crime… oh well. If black people are disproportionately arrested for committing crime, you can at least stay open and ultimately put more products out for purchasing besides sun screen and greeting cards, right?

No Fathers Day cards were stolen, priceless. Did anyone check out the work boot section? I would imagine none of them were stolen either.
LOL – what freaking joke. WE all know the demographic that is committing 99% of the shoplifting, as does everyone else who isn’t actively pretending otherwise. Of course it’s highly unlikely, despite the wapo, that anything serious will be done about it as that would have disproportionate and disparate impact on the darkie contingent, which would elicit the usual simian howls of protest. No, what’ll most likely happen is most of the impacted retailers will eventually close up shop, which will then elicit more howls of simian protest. There is no winning in any way, shape or form with these creatures.
The only thing that kept blacks from stealing and shoplifting on such a large scale in the past was segregation and fear of severe punishment at the hands of White people who were not intimidated or afraid of them.
Not gonna lie, I thought the headline was exaggerating, but…nope!
Suntan lotion and greeting cards had me laughing my butt off!
I think the paragraph from the Post is very clever and wonder if the mentions of sunscreen and cards are deliberately pointing out the criminals are black? Mentioning time travel back to the Soviet Union could be part of a related double meaning, where the second more important meaning is that the author is signaling he is in a police state and must hide the truth in plain sight to avoid being punished.
Maybe it is wishful thinking, but I hope the Post has writers who can pull that off for the good fight.
The black plague has struck another CVS. Over the coming years the black plague will continue spreading unabated across America, eradicating more Walmarts & Rite Aids, as the nation continues its disintegration into nigger nihilism, mongrel mayhem & simian oblivion.
I dunno, I hear they’re good for jogging.
If I’m not mistaken, this CVS is right across the street from Seth Rich’s watering hole, from which he was walking home that fateful night.
“It is harder and harder to find a grocery or pharmacy in the District that doesn’t lock up laundry detergent, toilet paper and deodorant.”–Including those in Northwest, the “white section”…???
Putting it bluntly, the only way to solve the shoplifting problem in black or black adjacent areas is to ban n*ggers from entering the stores. As long as they’re allowed entry, they’ll be stealing like bandits. Yes, it would suck for those who aren’t stealing but since it’s impossible to know which ones will steal and which ones won’t, what else could be done? Ban them all and you don’t have to think about it or worry about it. Problem solved.
The story mentions that a liquor store is closing down due to shoplifting. Reminds me of a liquor store I know of in a black area where no one is allowed into the store. The customer steps into an enclosed and locked foyer that prevents entry into the store proper, tells the clerk what they want, passes the payment through a sliding box and then and only then receives the product they’ve paid for. On that note, I’m surprised that fast food restaurants in infested areas don’t operate the same way to prevent their dining areas turning into fight clubs or their employees being attacked or robbed, and the restaurant getting trashed.
Of course, as we’ve already seen, any measures taken or done to stop blacks from committing theft (or other crimes) is considered “racist” and declared to have “disparate impact” on the black community which (as we all know) is full of sweet, innocent angels who ain’t nebber done did nuffin. Even pointing out their criminality is declared to be racist and an attack on their community.
I have a dream- a dream that one day people will wake the hell up, realize what blacks are and that segregation will come back into full force like it was when I was just a youngster. Of course, that requires the country to become sane again which is unlikely to happen.
Another option, long in use in ghetto plagued areas of USA or in seedier areas of European cities, is that the entire store is behind plexiglass or iron bars. Want an item? Just ask the clerk who will pass it to you between the bars or via other mechanism as described above…after you’ve paid for it, of course. Me, I like the relative luxury of being able to shop unhindered and actually pay for my items. Up to present time, I have this option in my area. Did I mention it’s relatively negro-free? But for how much longer?
The bare shelves in Russia during the communist days was due to Cold War embargoes and the USSR government having state run industries produce most goods.
Imagine the outcome for the families whose “teens” were caught flash mobbing a department store, or organized packs of groids shoplifting from the state sanctioned grocery/drug stores during the iron curtain days. Think there would be any Gentle Giant type chimpouts after comrade Don’Tavious got made good by the GRU, or the Tsar would advise giving them “space to destroy” if Sergi died during a rough ride on the way to the gulag? Would Ivan get the equivalent of a state funeral, complete with a glass coffin next to Lenin, after his system shut down while the politsiya were arresting him for trying to spend fake Rubles….of course not. They’d all be disappeared, either sent to the gulag for hard labor, used to test experimental ammo/medicine/machinery, launched into orbit, or just vanish and be airbrushed out of ever existing.
There is a ritzy suburban town not too far from me, with an expensive private liberal arts college, and a boutique downtown. In the downtown is a music shop that hosts folk concerts and sells lots of odd and interesting musical instruments. There are a number of dining places suitable for treating the wife, a yoga parlor, lots of places selling fancy things I have no use for, and a cheese shop. In the cheese shop are French folding knives, Opinel brand, that the wine and cheese set like to use to cut their cheese, oo la la! The knives are out on a display table by the door, in an open box, where you can just pick one up and go to the counter and pay for it. This is the world that the Negrophiliacs like for themselves, but deny us. So I enjoy hearing of their misadventures with their pets.

It is pretty clear what the WaPo article is saying–they want the Seattle solution to become a model for the rest of America. And it isn’t just black people doing the stealing, more and more migrants not working is leading to lots of others getting involved in creating crews of shoplifters as a way to make a living. It’s going to get a lot worse till they follow the Seattle model because closing stores live a CVS in one location will just push the crews to other places.
As if in a triumphant display of the fruits of artificial Darwinian selection, they picked the First Aid section clean of cotton balls in no time flat.

Please forgive me if I have told this story before.
Back in the day, I was driving to visit a client outside of Baltimore, Maryland. I wanted to bring a couple of cases of beer, so I stopped at a local establishment inside the beltway.
Holy Holy. The liquor store was like the one that PK described with the 1″ thick Plexiglas & the lazy Susan.
The clientele of the store looked at me like I was on fire. The guy behind the plastic was in shock. He didn’t have an easy way to give me a case of beer, and he feared that if he unlocked the steel man-door, he would be attacked by the feral negroes.
I opened my jacket. He nodded. He opened the door and handed me the beer.
We all know, but there are large numbers of people who refuse to believe it. Statistics, photos, film actual experiences won’t convince them. It keeps getting stranger. It’s a cult-like phenomenon that defies reality. And it seems to affect the wealthy at very high rates. Not sure how or when it ends.
Close all the retail stores in high crime areas and hire extra security for the ones within driving or mass transportation distance. At least until the cities get serious about stopping crime. We probably need to double or triple the black incarceration rate.
Well, again, if the corporations which own these chains and big box stores would just take the money they are now dumping into BLM coffers and instead contribute it to law & order groups, they might forestall the mass looting.
But it says something about Corporate America that they would rather subsidize the people who are out to destroy their businesses than stand tall against the criminal element, at least when those criminals are of African descent.
One more symptom of the ongoing Collapse of Civilization.
Excellent point. There is a possibility that some of the Post’s writers are practicing a form of journalistic esotericism, transmitting their unorthodox, unwoke thoughts to savvier readers.
Arthur Melzer’s fine book entitled “Philosophy Between the Lines: The Lost History of Esoteric Writing” is a fantastic introduction to this ancient practice.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
Wherever the negro goes, mayhem and criminality are sure to follow. You cannot have nice things if n*ggers are in any numerical number. They have no moral or ethical compasses and only know how to steal and destroy.
Constitution, Vladimir.
Was the situation really much worse in the Northern US than in the Southern US back then? AFAIK, a lot of times, when blacks got lynched in the South, it was innocent blacks who were wrongly accused (maybe 1/3 of the time, according to Emil Kirkegaard). Of course, thankfully the Northern US back then was much more civilized and had much less lynchings, and almost no anti-miscegenation laws, and almost no state-mandated segregation (unlike things such as racially restrictive covenants, until 1948).
The smart money in D.C. sez the Seth Rich hit was carried out by Hillary in blackface.
You mean they stole the books?
Now, that is a miracle.
In other words, locked through, like a ship in a canal. Separation of one culture from the other to prevent cross contamination. This is a good representation of what Jim Crow laws and red-lining were all about and the reason they were necessary—and worked.
The Eternal Return. The same patterns emerge over and over again because neither the world nor human nature change dramatically.
You stole my comment, Dixon! Yeah, Paul slipped that “Father’s Day” in there, making for a truly and hilariously appropriate headline. I was going to ask if CVS ever sold work boots too.
Ran out, so [AGREE!]
Just caught his part:
I’ve seen some euphemisms come and go – euphemisms are ephemeral – but never one this unintentionally(?) hilarious.
“Mah boy, he dindu nuthin! Dey callin’ him a thief or somethin’. He a good boy – the man from the city even done give me a paper sayin’ he’s a High Utilizer!”
Steve Sailer has written that sometimes you need to read all the way to the 17th paragraph to get to the heart of the story. To this day I recall a sentence in the L.A. Times that read, approximately, “Because over 80% of the victims of priestly molestation were boys, many people believe that most victims in general are boys; but in fact, almost two thirds are girls.” Which tells you that homos are responsible for over a third of molestations despite being only two percent of the population. That fact will never be the headline, but the writer knows it’s true.

Now let me tell you the truth. Back then there were relatively few blacks in the Northern cities. That is why they were safer and cleaner. Once blacks migrated from the South to Northern cities those cities started becoming the dysfunctional mess they are now. The truth: more blacks in any area means more crime, more poverty, more dysfunction, more chaos, and a horrible place to live.
OT: I searched Google for “jungle savage,” clicked on the Images button and, oddly enough, most of the images that came up featured white people, such as this white woman clearly just posing for pictures:
https://www.colourbox.com/image/fine-girl-explores-the-savage-jungle-image-4623350
A few were pictures of what are perhaps Aztecs or Mayans. The ones who were curiously absent were our dusky brethren from DC.
That’s the Dark Continent, not the District of Columbia, but you can be forgiven for confusing the two because they have so much in common.
I remember a system like that in place when I visited East Berlin in 1976. In a downtown department store, everything was behind a counter. You’d ask one person for what you needed, you’d go to a second to pick it up and a third to pay for it. I don’t think it was because East Germans were such thieves but rather it was a way to employ many more people than were actually needed in the socialist system.
It was, of course, very inefficient and one of the many things that disappeared when the reunification took place years later.
I was just a visitor then, not a resident, and life in East Berlin did not look enviable, but I don’t recall seeing a single orc during any of my visits. Unfortunately that can’t be said about the modern, reunified Berlin today.
Now we know how Mike Obama’s books made the Best Seller lists. The thefts were included.
Nice to know that the manager of the CVS has a sense of humor.
?
buzz was it was done by illegal [ms13?] who then was killed.
The panigger canal. I see more places going to this. My dads old bank has a similar entry. You go into a locked room. Door closes behind you and locks. Then you’re buzzed through the next door into the bank. Unbelievable the lengths whites have went to all in a never ending quest to avoid being called a racist rather than just acknowledge the actual problem in this country. The nigger tax is more than just the money the kike government steals from us weekly and hands over to the shitskins. Its everything that we’ve had to surrender in order to keep from hurting the 60iq races feelings. On a good note, looks like Ireland’s had enough DIEversity. Seems a sand nigger stabbed some kids over there and the native whites are protesting and starting to push back. Conor McGregor is voicing a lot of opposition to the immigrants so keep an eye on that. Funny the paper over there didn’t talk about the race of the knife man. Their headline was reporting on the “far right” protesting over the incident. When they say the media is culpable, that’s not lip service. Probably another kike run news outlet spinning yet another black on white murder story into a “fuck whitey” headline. Fucking clown world indeed
Hey Unzers. I’m surprised you haven’t claimed that the black shoplifters are being directed by zionists.
All of this crime and the lack of culpability for those commiting it can be directly linked to saint fentynal of Mogadishu Minnesota. Based documentary on that very topic about what really happened, the cover up, the withholding of key evidence in Chauvins trial, and the subsequent dystopian aftermath. https://rumble.com/v3vyvzv-the-fall-of-minneapolis.html
If not for jewish influence, none of this shit would be happening.
It’s gotten a thousand times worse since the BLM riots. Again, thank organized jewry.
I went into a Walmart recently, and nearly everything was locked up! It was surreal. I left in a hurry because I didn’t have the time to deal with finding a clerk to unlock the motor oil, etc.
As mentioned above, stores in black areas will simply have to close, and howls of “racism” will commence.
It does give me GREAT pleasure to see BLM protesting on behalf of Gaza. The blacks are not showing any loyalty to their jewish masters!
Fun times.

That is a great book; thank you.
Well now that you mention it…
Well, now that you mention it…
Too bad the lot of you still are…
Long before the decriminalization of shoplifting, there were professional shoplifting crews who would come to the US, rent vans and travel city to city, mall to mall, stealing whatever they could. They were usually from various South & Central American countries. If any of them got busted, the group would pay their bail, then go to a new area, or send the person caught home.
It was a big issue here in S. FL, and even though you don’t hear much about it any more, it definitely is still happening. There was a story a few years back about a cop shooting into a sheboons rental car in California after they tried to evade him. Turns out they were from Baltimore and flew to San Fran to shoplift for the weekend, because the only penalty is a ticket to appear in court.
The lot of you? Ask Kyrie Irving who he serves? That shitskin couldn’t get on his knees fast enough for his kike overlords. Now into the boat for your small hat slavemasters. They’ve sold you to the white man to pick cotton until you’re replaced by the cotton gin.
That 65 iq hard at work. Nothing intelligent to add. Just show a “man bites dog” video. Not once but twice. Congrats on that find. Now quick. Go find me a video of 15 white kids pounding a shitskin to death.
Constitution, “Truth.”
The authorities and the private sphere have violated Whites’ constitutional rights with impunity for over 60 years, but that hasn’t bothered you.
You should try living with white people. Do you know what happens when a store window gets broken in Whiteyland? Nothing. It’s not an invitation to loot the store. Hard to believe from where you sit, I know.
” I was going to ask if CVS ever sold work boots too.”
Steel toed boots for kicking the guard dog and high tops both for (guard) dog bites and Mother’s Day if they look military enough. Probably have to go to Walmart though.
An american shade of Rodrigo Duterte is probably overdue in un- or postConstitutional America…
Into the 70s where I went to college, people like this often had rough rides to jail, and the worst ones sometimes did not live. Rough but, you know what, they usually deserved it and everybody else got more sleep at night, weren’t missing critical supplies, and some innocents didn’t die.
Even then the race card discount was a big factor – when one of the bipoc lowlifes accidentally died from the “ride” died, SHTF.
I assume that TPTB tolerate open crimes so they can federalize police, and food/welfare functions and atomize the population on social interactions and supplies (traceable transactions too). Deep State plutocrat Jeff Bezos wins on his delivery based model and sells more IoT control, starting with the Ring cameras.
Perhaps in a post Soros US recovery, the worst criminals get shot by home/store owner, especially the arsonists and looters.
“Whites” don’t have Constitutional rights, “Americans” have Constitutional rights.
Probably not when they were CIA agents.
Check to see how many BLM riots there were in (all-black) places like Memphis, Birmingham, Nashville and Jackson, TN…
Too hard to get spooks in.
Your “White Nationalist Website” here is run by who?
Oh, OK.
“Holy Euphemism, Batman. Shoplifting?”
“Anarchistic looting. Riotous dark barbarians swooping like
a plague, Boy Wonder”.
Hold my blunt… 🙂
Dear Truth,
Rest assured that these ‘White Nationalists’ will never, ever be able to infiltrate mainstream, heterosexual white society. I personally guarantee that we won’t let them into it.
Those places had fewer riots for the same reason there were next to none in Florida. The governors of those states don’t have the same tolerance for nig-grow shenanigans as states run by munt loving cunts. Where I live in North Florida it was made clear to BLM that if they started their shit here they’d be spending a significant portion of their adult lives in federal prisons. That being said I never saw a black person (or anyone for that matter) doing anything during the Trump years even remotely consistent with their conduct in places like Minneapolis and DC. ANTIFA, the same was made clear to them as well. They understood and behaved, the ones that didn’t were dealt with quickly and harshly, as a result there was no damage, looting or loss of life.
Yes, of course, TOUGH CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP ™ is the reason…
And.. there’s no black crime in Florida.
Sorry, but it’s simply the truth and makes far more sense than your conspiracy theory about CIA agents. Unlike democrap controlled toilets that fall all over themselves cutting second degree manslaughter deals for their pets, Florida sans a few ultra liberal, jew controlled cities lock our violent scum up for long periods of time to consider the error of their ways. Violent rioting and property damage didn’t happen nearly as much in Florida because it was spelled out by state and county officials that prosecutions would be swift and severe. I know because they didn’t blink when it was said. Compare that to Baltimore and Philly, the contrast isn’t difficult to see.
And I agree with you completely about black crime in Florida, but that’s true for anywhere there are niggers in high numbers, you’re going to ALWAYS see ultra high rates of robbery, rape and murder. Choose any of the large cities nationwide that coddle their apes, Chitcongo and Nawlinz are two that spring to mind when considering that simple truth.
