GOP, businesses slam AOC for doubting existence of smash-and-grab robberies: 'Tone-deaf and offensive


New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was slammed by Republicans and business leaders following an interview where she cast doubt on whether rampant smash-and-grabs are actually occurring.

"A lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out," Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with The Washington Times last week.

"I believe it’s a Walgreens in California cited it, but the data didn’t back it up," she added.

The comments sparked pushback from retail leaders and Republican lawmakers, including from Walgreens.

"Organized retail crime is one of the top challenges facing" the company, Walgreens told The Washington Times, adding that the crime "has evolved beyond shoplifting and petty theft to the sale of stolen and counterfeit goods online."

"I don’t know what data she is talking about," said Rep. Rodney Davis, an Illinois Republican.

"But you don’t really need much data from someplace in San Francisco or California. All you need to do is walk down the street to the CVS in Eastern Market," he said, referring to an area of Washington, D.C. near the Capitol. "I’ve seen on multiple occasions when I’ve been in there buying things, someone will come in and raid a shelf and walk out."

ndiana Republican Rep. Jim Banks said Ocasio-Cortez’s comments were "tone-deaf and offensive" to the family of Oakland security guard Kevin Nishita. The former San Jose police officer was shot and killed in November while defending a news crew reporting on a smash-and-grab crime.

The Retail Industry Leaders Association also took issue with her remarks in a comment to The Washington Times.

"Respectfully, the Congresswoman has no idea what she is talking about. Both the data and stack of video evidence makes fairly clear that this is a growing problem in need of solutions," Jason Brewer, RILA senior executive vice president of communications said in an email. "If she is not concerned with organized theft and increasingly violent attacks on retail employees, she should just say that."

California has faced repeated smash-and-grab incidents since November, with most of the crimes concentrated in and around San Francisco and Los Angeles.

WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT.

[AProudLefty]

I don't see how she's wrong.

"But you don’t really need much data from someplace in San Francisco or California. All you need to do is walk down the street to the CVS in Eastern Market," he said, referring to an area of Washington, D.C. near the Capitol. "I’ve seen on multiple occasions when I’ve been in there buying things, someone will come in and raid a shelf and walk out."

That is anecdotal.

Why some US cities are facing a spree of 'smash-and-grab' crimes

(CNN)A wave of "smash-and-grab" crimes is plaguing upscale stores in major US cities, with mobs of thieves making off with expensive goods in brazen, nighttime raids.

At least 18 people broke into a Nordstrom department store in Los Angeles Monday night and stole thousands of dollars in merchandise, the city's police chief said.
The thefts followed a rash of similar incidents over the weekend in the San Francisco Bay Area. A group of thieves swarmed the Southland Mall in Hayward on Sunday evening, wielding hammers to smash cases at a jewelry store before grabbing items and fleeing.
Three suspects were arrested Saturday night after a mob ransacked a Nordstrom department store in Walnut Creek, east of San Francisco. Some 80 suspects were involved, and they fled the outdoor mall in at least 10 different vehicles, police said. That robbery came after similar raids Friday night near San Francisco's Union Square, where thieves targeted Louis Vuitton, Burberry and Bloomingdale's stores, a Walgreens and cannabis dispensaries.

Were there BLM riots when Rodney King was beaten up??

"...For instance, on Monday night, around 18 people broke into a Nordstrom department store in Los Angeles and stole thousands of dollars in merchandise. Unfortunately, there were similar incidents throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. In Hayward, on Sunday evening, a group of thieves swarmed the Southland Mall. Using hammers, they smashed cases at a jewelry store and grabbed as many items as they could.

Sadly, these are not the only incidents that occurred in the Bay Area. There were over 80 people that swarmed a Nordstrom department store. There were similar raids, Friday night, near San Francisco’s Union Square. Thieves targeted Louis Vuitton, Burberry, and Bloomingdale’s stores, Walgreens, and cannabis dispensaries.

The crazy thing about these incidents happening throughout Southern and Northern California is that it is not just isolated to California. There are smash-and-grab crimes occurring in Chicago as well. Last week, 14 robbers barged into a Louis Vuitton store in suburban Chicago. They fled with more than $100,000 in handbags and other merchandise."

[AProudLefty]

Yes. She didn't deny that it happens.

So Grogger, how about the context I asked of you?

[AProudLefty]

Exactly. Riots are riots, no matter who gets the blame.
