Et tu Target??





"This Biden's America. This is Newsom's California. This is London Breed's city. All Democrats, all socialists, all nut balls. The result? San Francisco, once the jewel of the west coast, is now an expensive dump. A crime ridden hell hole."


Oh no! Say it ain't so! Seems that Target Stores, Inc. is bleeding cash. Why? Are they not being run well? I guess they are, but that is not the problem. The problem is a $500M problem last year called "inventory shrinkage". For you laypeople out there, that is business speak for shoplifting. Yes, Target lost 1/2 billion dollars in shoplifting - mostly in big, blue cities.

There was an article on the news recently about San Francisco. A nice blue city with a history of nut ball mayors. The current Democrat mayor is London Breed (one of the finest names in politics, even though she is another nut ball). Like many big, blue mayors, she was whipsawed by "the mob" after the Floyd incident. So much so, she, like many other big, blue mayors, agreed to cut her police force. Like - they were the problem. 

Enter Soros backed DAs all over the country. Shoplifting is now a petty misdemeanor. No bail, no jail. Shoplifters go into a store like Target, take what they want, and leave. If caught by the few cops remaining, they are let go. Many chronic shoplifters have been caught dozens of times. Some clerks at a downtown Target in San Francisco were asked about how often they witness shoplifting in their store. Ready for this? About every ten minutes.

One Target Store in the Mission District of San Francisco recently announced it was closing. This store has been in the Mission District for a long, long time. But the theft has proven to be too much for them. The remaining Target Stores look like Fort Knox. EVERYTHING is locked up. If you need a tube of toothpaste, you need to find a clerk with a key to unlock the secured area for you. All this inconvenience, due to a bunch of young folk, who have zero respect for the law or other people. The big, blue cities are starting to devour themselves.

This Biden's America. This is Newsom's California. This is London Breed's city. All Democrats, all socialists, all nut balls. The result? San Francisco, once the jewel of the west coast, is now an expensive dump. A crime ridden hell hole. We had to fly in and out of there last fall, and I was never so happy to leave. Never once, did I feel safe there. Yet when I was working, and needed to travel to Sunnyvale or San Jose, I often did the city. It was one of the perks of traveling out there. No more. Those days are over.

No more signing, "I left my heart in San Francisco". That has been replaced with "I could not get my butt out of San Francisco fast enough." Will anything save San Francisco? Will anything or anyone save San Francisco from itself? Maybe the "big one". By the way, how is the San Andreas fault doing?
