Eric Adams Proposes New Measures That Will Totally Shut Down Shoplifting in Thunderdome NYC; REI Flees Portland, Citing Runaway Crime
New Yorkers elected Eric Adams because he claimed he'd bring law-and-order back to NYC.
He lied.Shoplifting has become a crisis in New York City, with recent numbers showing a 44 percent jump in incidents in 2022. Mayor Adams says repeat offenders were behind a third of those thefts last year, and now he is rolling out a new plan to tackle the issue. "250 people in 2023 have been arrested almost 2500 times, again, that's 30 percent," said Michael Lepetri, the NYPD's Chief of Crime Control Strategies. "Who are these people: 52 percent are convicted felons." The new crackdown includes...Get ready for this "crackdown."
giving first-time offenders intervention programs instead of prosecution...That's not a "crackdown." That is letting thieves walk free.
...de-escalation training for retail employees..."De-escalation training" means training retail employees to not confront or attempt to stop thieves. Again, this is not a "crackdown." This is teaching shopowners how to more efficiently permit thieves to loot their stores.
... establishing neighborhood retail watch groups to share information about a theft in real-time with one another and the police...For what purpose? Eric Adams doesn't intend to arrest these people and is telling shop owners not to grab thieves so that the police can collect them. And this is my favorite:
...and installing kiosks in stores to connect would-be thieves with social service programs.These kiosks would provide counseling to thieves, asking them, do you really want to loot this store? So there's your "crackdown"!
Don't call it a "crackdown." It's not. It's open encouragement for thievery on an industrial scale. Literally an industrial scale -- these thieving crews are run by organized crime, often Eastern European. No single person needs that much Prell.
A look at some of the more notable crimes across the New York City area this week, including two cases of stolen dogs, a knife-wielding thief in Home Depot, a 16-year-old girl shot in the head, and one resident's battle against illegal police parking in his neighborhood. But the crackdown isn't pleasing everyone.
... "So when people come in that were just about to steal, they won't because they realize that stealing is a source of a different problem for them. So they're going to use the kiosk to access social services. I'm sorry, but that's just a pipe dream," said Ralph Cilento, a retired NYPD Lieutenant Commander of Detectives and currently an adjunct professor at John Jay College of Criminal College. "And that is he's doing that specifically to satisfy his liberal base, which I understand he has to do." According to Cilento, there is one deterrent to crime. "Shoplifters need to be caught and prosecuted," he said. "That's the end game."Nah that's racist. David Strom notes that Eric Adams had some kind of commission meet for six months to brainstorm how to stop shoplifting. This is what they came up with! MacGruff the Crime Dog kiosks! After six months! Get out of the cities while you can. Meanwhile, the camping/outdoorsmanship retailer REI has closed its store in Portland. Released emails show that REI had been pleading with Portland to please, please, please do something about the rampant theft making doing business in Portland a losing proposition.
Portland's mayor Ted Wheeler said "no."
An hour's notice isn't a courtesy. It's a calculated discourtesy. And one that Wheeler well-earned.
Less than an hour before REI made public its plans to close its Pearl District store, the outdoor retail giant gave a courtesy notice to Mayor Ted Wheeler's office, saying that operating a store within the city limits appeared untenable.
Only after REI announced it was fleeing Portland did city "leaders" move to appease them.
Cameron Janes, REI's chief commercial officer, wrote that the company did "not believe a store in the city of Portland will be possible in the near term." It acknowledged the mayor's "city-wide priority for community safety and initiatives to address crime, homelessness and more" but said the company hadn't seen "substantial progress ... to give us the confidence to invest in another long-term lease." The terse message, and months of preceding emails that The Oregonian/OregonLive obtained through a public records request, offer a window into REI's frustration over the city's response to its concerns, even as city officials said they were moving expeditiously to keep the store where it was. REI cited safety concerns and an increase in crime and theft among its reasons to close its flagship Portland store in early 2024. In its public announcement, the outdoor and recreation retail said its Portland store "had its highest number of break-ins and thefts in two decades," despite making costly investments in store security.
What happened next will not surprise you in the least.
In response, Janes agreed to meet with city leaders but warned that the "likelihood of staying in our current location in downtown Portland is essentially zero." Janes added that REI would only be willing to engage with the city as long as the discussions were "about longer-term ideas and opportunities for bringing back REI to Portland vs. solving for maintaining our presence in our current location." ... The city had been aware of REI's woes for months. Emails indicate that REI had complained about rampant crime and safety issues for months and had been seeking help from the city as far back as July 2022, when the retailer applied for a permit to install surveillance equipment on a public parking space outside of its store. REI wanted to install a mobile surveillance system near the store's front doors off of Northwest Johnson and Kearney streets due to an "increase in criminal activity." But the outdoor retailer struggled to navigate the city's bureaucracy to get approval. ... Months later, in early November, REI appealed to the mayor's office for help in getting approval to install the surveillance system, records show. Although REI wanted the camera system near their front door, they got one on their loading dock instead.
The stolen car was rammed through the glass front doors so that thieves could loot the store. Too bad there was no video surveillance system installed at the front of the store so that police could see the thieves' faces.
Documents indicate that talks between the mayor's office and the outdoor retail giant intensified after a car crashed through the glass front doors of REI's Pearl District store in late November.
Roughly 12 hours after REI made its public announcement, Wheeler sent a letter to the retailer, acknowledging that the city's efforts were "not enough" and that the city is willing to work with the company to find "more creative solutions to address (its) immediate needs."Note that Wheeler, like Eric Adams, will not commit to simply arresting, prosecuting, and imprisoning thieves. Oh no -- they will only entertain more "creative solutions" than the one solution which works. And oh -- Jordan Neely's uncle was arrested for pickpocketing and possession of a knife. He was just turning his life around. He's a gentle giant. Here are some pictures from his high school graduation, 22 years ago. Look he's wearing a mortar cap. What a scholar. So much promise. He was thinking of applying to CUNY and recording a rap album.
An uncle of Jordan Neely -- the homeless man choked to death on the subway this month -- was arrested near the Port Authority Bus Terminal for allegedly stealing purses from restaurants, police sources said Tuesday. Christopher Neely, 44, had acted as something of a representative for the grieving family in the aftermath of his 30-year-old nephew's May 1 death, frequently speaking out about the lightning-rod case. But Neely was also allegedly wanted for a pattern of grand larceny, including the handbag thefts, according to the sources. A member of the NYPD's pickpocket team spotted Neely, of Hamilton Heights, at about 11 p.m. Monday near the Manhattan bus station. He allegedly took off when the officer approached him -- and fought back when cops caught up to him after a brief chase, the sources said.Violently resisting arrest, you say? Plot twist.
How about never? Soros prosecutors don't prosecute criminals. They prosecute citizens who resist the criminals allowed to prey on citizens by Soros prosecutors. Update:
Eventually, authorities cuffed him and charged him with criminal possession of stolen property, resisting arrest, bail jumping and unlawful possession of a weapon. It was not clear when he would be arraigned.
Ace, You missed a key point that came out later about the Portland REI case. In his message to REI, the mayor outlined strategies he thinks could help the outdoor retailer minimize theft and other crime. For one, the mayor requested that REI report all incidents to the Portland Police Bureau and to detain shoplifters. The mayor also suggested that REI reconsider policies that prohibit its security and staff from participating in prosecutions that are referred to the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office. That's right - even if the Soros DA somehow got motivated to prosecute shoplifting at the REI store, it was REI's policy not to cooperate with prosecutors. Classic Portland: "We want crimes to be reduced at our store, but not if it involves cooperating with icky cops and prosecutors". Eff them.That is a good point. Part of that is probably just "Don't Burn Our Store Down to the Ground" posturing. But maybe not. Eff them, indeed. These corporations deserve to be looted into bankruptcy.

No, the end game is stores closing and the remaining stores converting to a no-entry model. Give your order to the clerk, he gets the stuff, you pay him, he passes it through the window.

No, what's needed is significantly *less* creative. It is, in fact, very old-school indeed: arrest the criminals and keep them in jail. Deal with the vagrancy and open-air crime and drug markets in your town. Stop prosecuting people who interrupt crimes in progress to defend their property.
Nothing creative about any of that.

Both the county and the city were giving out free tents to homeless people - several tents per year per homeless person.
Then, a new moderate Portland city councilman decided that Portland would no longer hand out free tents to the homeless.
This made him worse than Hitler, of course.
Not to worry, the separate county government is still handing out free tents.

That one bad premise is this: poverty causes crime. People steal because they need to steal in order to survive. Those in poverty commit crimes because they *must* commit crimes and therefore the only way to reduce crime is to reduce poverty, and to reduce poverty we must redistribute wealth by some means.
That's it. That's the entire premise, and it is *wrong.* Virtually none of this crime is because people won't eat if they don't steal.

If I lived in a place where shoplifting was effectively legal, I'd be tempted to do it.
I don't think I would, though. Amazon said they never delivered a package to me, but I did get it. I could file a report to get a refund, but I still haven't done it. I mean...it'd essentially be a free $40 from a company that hates me, and I don't do it.

That one bad premise is this: poverty causes crime. People steal because they need to steal in order to survive. Those in poverty commit crimes because they *must* commit crimes and therefore the only way to reduce crime is to reduce poverty, and to reduce poverty we must redistribute wealth by some means.
That's it. That's the entire premise, and it is *wrong.* Virtually none of this crime is because people won't eat if they don't steal.

Ace, another point worth mentioning is that REI is and has always been a radical leftwing company with a customer base of granola-eating, leftwing twats. REI is all-in on all the usual suspects: climate change hysteria, diversity, immigration, and socialism.
The company hated President Trump and posted this in January 2017:
"Over the course of [Trump's] first week alone, we’ve witnessed actions that conflict with our co-op values on issues including climate, the environment, women’s rights and the singling out of individuals based on nationality and belief. These issues are core to the health of the outdoors and the ideals of our nation."

Classic Portland: "We want crimes to be reduced at our store, but not if it involves cooperating with icky cops and prosecutors".
——-
The reason for this is twofold: 1. There is a huge risk of violent retaliation once these idiots are freed, which is a very likely scenario and 2. There are lawsuits filed by the perps for discrimination or public lynchings (metaphoric, but I doubt it feels very metaphoric to the people going through it) as we have seen time and time again, which costs the company money, the employee money, etc. not to mention the costs and mess created when your store becomes the target of leftists campaigns against you.

Apparently the success rate (well, the linkage rate) was 1%. How many users were able to hit a vein without help, no idea.

Time will tell. It should, and they'll deserve it if it happens. Target - like REI in this respect - is all-in on being as leftist as possible. It's Target's brand. They support all of the causes, virtue-signal on everything left-wing, and so can't even start knocking down and restraining the shoplifters even if crime is still illegal where the store is. All they can do is throw more money at extremely expensive loss-prevention (lock up the merchandise, hire more people to get stuff for customers, etc.) and hope it passes before it bankrupts them.

Yup. Catalogue stores might just make a comeback - albeit digital this time around. Walk in, use the kiosk to pick out your merchandise, have an employee fetch it out of the warehouse/vault that consumes most of the cubic volume of the facility.
Or just order online and go pickup. It will not surprise me to see some big retail stores (Walmart, Target, etc.) go to an "order online, pickup at store" model as the *only* way to shop. Maybe a limited, one-at-a-time carveout with an appointment if you need to try stuff on.

That happens in stage two, yes. Under such a system, automation and robotics become an obvious thing. They can probably license some of the fetch-and-organize automation from Amazon, since their warehouses are highly automated. Getting it to be an entirely hands-off operation is much harder, but nailing 80% of the problem - and reducing staff by 50% or 60% - is much easier.

>>>That's right - even if the Soros DA somehow got motivated to prosecute shoplifting at the REI store, it was REI's policy not to cooperate with prosecutors.
It's not like REI can say to an employee "if you have evidence of a crime you cannot testify to it in court nor notify law enforcement." That would be illegal and if REI were to actually punish someone for doing so they could be sued. Sure you can say "If I have evidence I'm not under a legal obligation to volunteer it." As soon as you say "Hey you, whom has evidence, if you talk to the cops there goes your job" that's obstruction.
So I'm curious as to what sort of cooperation is "against policy"

Yep. Close the main store section and make it much more compactified for merchandise. Establish a "customer section" where the customers can use a checkout system of sorts to pick out their merchandise. Then they drive their vehicle to the pickup section of the store where their goods are loaded into their vehicle. They never see the inside of the store proper anymore. There's no need.

The more I think about this, the more I wonder if the policy is not so much you are prohibited, but if you are to expect legal support from us, you need to be subpoenaed as a witness versus just showing up. I do know there is a risk factor involved, as I described, but if you are subpoenaed, you can’t be told no by your Ee.

Anyone outdoorsy with the least bit of common sense anymore only goes to REI to check sizes for clothes, backpacks and sleeping bags. Then you buy the stuff you want online at about 30-40% less than what REI charges.
The only exception is when REI has big sales, or the outlet store. I'll admit, a couple of weeks ago I just bought a big North Face tent on sale off of the REI website for car camping. About $60 cheaper than anyone else selling the same tent online. Otherwise I'd have gone elsewhere.

Right. I think having an in-store kiosk and person to answer questions would be helpful, but some stores might skip that entirely and just move to an online-order-only model. Go online, pick out what you want from the local store, go pick it up. If you don't care about same-day availability, have it delivered.

letter to the retailer, acknowledging that the city's efforts were "not enough" and that the city is willing to work with the company to find "more creative solutions to address (its) immediate needs."

A lot of Army/Navy stores are disappearing. If you live near a military base, you can find stuff.

He may know that, but he's a conservative talk show host in NY. There's probably only so much he can say if he doesn't wanted to get the Tucker Carlson treatment. He basically implies Adams is not very bright without saying it.

They want boots that fit and keep their feet dry and free of blisters. All their gear is functional
I don't see a marketing opportunity for trannies. These women are not buying pink boots.

Us deplorables often have a tough time understanding that commie cocksuckers WANT to destroy Western Civilization. And they don't care about what kind of hellspawn dystopia may follow, they just get off on the destruction and death.
Posted by: IllTemperedCur at May 24, 2023 02:25 PM (n+4am)
I have an anecdatum point to support this. Lefty acquaintance told me to my face that she wants to see capitalism destroyed. But she thinks this will somehow end wars, poverty, and racism. She has a rather loosey-goosey grasp of the concept of real-life consequences. Bonus points -- the fact that I don't agree with her shows that she's smarter and more virtuous than me.

Start a rental business that employs rooftop Koreans to blast the shit out of anyone who steals from your store. One flaw, gun laws/gun free zones that most of these major Democrat cities have enacted. Damn, thought that I was going to make millions off of that idea.

Some of the best is military surplus. Yeah, it's not as light as titanium or wizbang plastics, but it's hard to tear up a WWII stainless steel mess kit.

One of my big bugaboos lately is the douchey ultralight backpackers on yootoob.
"Check out my sub-6 lb baseweight loadout!"
"Isn't it dangerous to go 30 miles into the wilderness without a medical kit, satellite communicator or decent pocketknife, but you still carry 1.5 lbs of weed and a bong?"
"It's so cute that you people who don't have my extensive experience in the wilderness would even think about telling me that I'm doing things wrong."

Are you one of those idiots that buys a compact medical kit adequate only for blisters and splinters ?
Or maybe without the never needed "snake bite kit"

It's difficult to walk in an entire "State" at a time. So without the distortions of averaging in all the places you're not walking in at the time, lets just agree that any Blue run shithole city is 10x more dangerous than any non-progressive city, town or suburb. All good?

More than $15k can be earned online by performing straightforward tasks from home. In the previous month, I got $18376. Even a young child may do this job and make money because it is so simple to complete and has higher pay than typical office occupations. Everyone needs to try this task by using the information on this page. www.Richepay.com
