Crime Shoplifters lives matter

[Project 2501]

What a fucking joke of a movement. Also I guess now we know black>>>muslim in the oppression hierarchy.

Cliffs:

Scumbag thief is caught and held down by store employee and security

Equally scummy people verbally attack employees and demand he be let go

Scumbag who is now self aware of current events abuses the phrase "I cant breathe" in order to rile up the crowd and gain sympathy

Next day a protest is held in front of the store and said scumbag is made into a hero




*Mod Edit*
This is what the World Star description had to say:

A viral video shows a tense confrontation between a Crown Heights grocery stores’ staff and shoppers outraged by one of them pinning a black man accused of shoplifting on the ground.

Protesters took to the streets in Crown Heights after video surfaced of a man accused of shoplifting being held down by staff at Met Foodmarkets on Nostrand Avenue.

The man in the video being held down is identified as 47-year-old Jason Rayford.

“They immediately put him into a chokehold while others pinned his body down,” says an eyewitness.

Police say Rayford is accused of stealing $154 worth of grocery items and was arrested and charged with petty larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.

Sources tried reached out to the store for comment but to no avail. Instead, it issued a statement on Instagram, highlighting its status as a family-owned local grocery tied into the local community.

However, claims on that website are notoriously unreliable, so I did a search to find some reporting on the incident:

Protesters took to the streets in Crown Heights after video surfaced of a man accused of shoplifting was detained by store employees.

A community is calling for justice after the video of a man being held down by staff at Met Foodmarkets on Nostrand Avenue was released.

The man in the video being held down is identified as 47-year-old Jason Rayford.

“They immediately put him into a chokehold while others pinned his body down,” says Kirby Joseph, of the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

Police tell News 12 Rayford is accused of stealing $154 worth of grocery items and was arrested and charged with petty larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.

He and other organizers of this protest say the issue is much deeper, because they say the worker was using racial slurs as he held him down.

A man who identified himself as the owner of the supermarket spent the morning watching on as protesters stood outside the store.

When News 12 tried to ask him to explain what happened, some of protesters intervened.

A statement was posted on the Met Foodmarket’s Instagram page saying in part that the incident involved a repeated shoplifter continuing on that when they tried to stop him he became “aggressive and assaulted our staff.” Further down in the statement it says “we will learn from this. We apologize to those who were hurt by this incident.”

Organizers say this isn’t a one-time issue and they’re not going to stand for it.

Why don't you put the police on the same pedestal that you seem to have protester? Or even the looters?

Like: TS thinking some random Worldstar video was worth a War Room thread, while giving nothing of substance to substantiate that thought.

Dislike: Forgetting my Bluetooth was connected and having the screaming blast into my eardrums at high volume.

Chokehold?.....These motherfuckers need to watch MMA....He was just holding him down.




Im against the shit that happened to george floyd and we need the police brotherhood to stop it's bullshit but I fucking hate it when they ruin movements by getting dumbshit involved with it....A pop and mom's store tackling/holding down a shoplifter is not and should not be part of this movement!!!, they are just deluding the message!

"There are no two sides" (to the story behind the incident in the video.)

Well there it is.

No. You don't get to steal. You don't get to get aggressive and threatening. You don't get special treatment because you are black.

Out here in California, a shop lifter can steal up to $951 worth of merchandise before any action is taken. But it has to be $951 all at once.

Meaning that the same shop lifters can simply stroll into a store, grab whatever they want, day after day, and Loss Prevention or Security can't do a fuckin thing.

Why anyone would want to work as a Police Officer, Loss Prevention, or Security in this la-la-land climate, is beyond me. Especially if they are a white male, where every breath you take is racist.

Basically the point of this video is the things that are about to come. Essentially scumbags who commit crimes such as shoplifting, assault, etc and are black can receive absolute impunity and dismissal of any wrong doing by playing victim and uttering the words "I cant breathe". While decent law abiding citizens will be vilified and physically attacked by any attempts to.try and stop them, while said scumbag walks away a hero and afterwards obese black women will twerk in victory while brainwashed whites can sleep at night knowing they've changed the world for the better.

This is depressing. To say this is step backwards for blacks in America is an understatement.

 

[oldshadow]

The answer is for all businesses that are not black own to close up and move out of minority areas.

This would be a win, win for everyone.

 

[all caps]

You don't get special treatment because you are black.

 

[JimmyFresno]

Does equality make you mad?

 

[Ornife]

Everyone involved seemed to be a POC; I don't know who of these two sides I support more fervently.

If only there was a method for determining right and wrong other than the colour of someone's skin.

Maybe you should let you yellow card expire before you try to play forum mod.

Is this a citizens arrest? If it is just stealing, it is in general better to let them go UNLESS they are in your home.

I feel like there is just too many legal issues to deal with in stopping a shoplifter. The scumbag on the ground will have the media on his side and like 20% of the country. I mean some people want to defend police entirely, reduce their numbers, and also let people go for some misdemeanor crimes, which I believe stealing is as long it is kept under a certain $ value.
