"We're talking about operations that have fleets of trucks, 18-wheelers that have palletized loads of stolen goods, that have cleaning crews that actually clean the goods to make them look brand new,"

Walgreens is a ---- company. They snake in and buy the land that small businesses sit on, even if there are 2 drug stores within 500 feet. Hopefully they go bankrupt.

They don't want to hire staff because it cuts into profits and unlike theft, they can't write it off. Those losses are a tax break.

Has to be fake news. Fox told me they were urban thugs, not nice white suburban moms.
She's probably looking at a severe talking to and several weeks of probation.

Probation for cultural appropriation!

Organized retail theft is a MuliBillon dollar issue, they stopped $8M dollars. Quick lets blame white suburban moms for all of it.

When reality is she's just doing what seems to work in California, retail theft.

With your excellent track record of never being right about anything I'm certain you are dead nuts on this one thing that you just found out about when you read this headline.

If #7 is certain one way of the other place your bet on option B.

You'll never go broke.
