You Reap What You Sow

There's nothing like a smarmy, smug, leftist who's realized he's cooked his own goose.

Which brings us to the case of Chesa Boudin, the district attorney of San Francisco who's effectively legalized shoplifting in the name of "criminal justice reform." He's prompted massive store closures with ugly videos of broad daylight robberies on large and small stores. Boudin's refusal to prosecute has turned San Francisco into another socialist crime-pit, Caracas. And now, like his mentor Hugo Chavez, he's facing a voter recall.

Gov. Newsom was in the Bay Area Monday and explained how he is supporting local efforts to stop rampant retail thefts, KTLA sister station KRON reports. 

He said there are very well organized crimes being carried out and there is no empathy or sympathy for it.

LIVERMORE (KPIX) — A violent smash-and-grab robbery spree targeting retail shops across the Bay Area has shoppers, store employees and business owners on edge at the start the holiday shopping season.

San Francisco’s Union Square was one of the first shopping areas hit last Friday night when a Louis Vuitton store was among several shops that were looted. Over the weekend, businesses boarded up their windows as police stepped up patrols in response to the violent spree.
