AIRHEAD AOC CLAIMS "SMASH and GRAB" ROBBERIES AREN'T REALLY HAPPENING

I don't give a fat fuck about AOC's casual comments on current events.

I like the little broad as a legislator. And perhaps someday as an executive. That's what matters.

Called "Tone-deaf and offensive" by business owners whose livelihoods have been attacked by the roving bands of thugs...in DEMOCRAT GOVERNED SHIT HOLES:







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.

CALIFORNIA CITY BOOSTS SECURITY BUDGET BY $2 MILLION AFTER 'CRIMINAL MOB' RANSACKS NORDSTROM

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.

SMASH-AND-GRAB THIEVES ATTACK STORES AROUND THE COUNTRY, CALIFORNIA SECURITY GUARD SHOT DEAD AS CRIME RAGES

"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.

First - I have NO IDEA if she is right or not (my guess is that she is wrong).


But this is all she said:

'"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.'

AND THAT is what you/them are freaking out about?

She gave an opinion and she did NOT say NONE of them happened.

DUH.


Jeez...you people are so full of hate that now you have to put words in her mouth?

I think she is naive, arrogant and her 'Green New Deal' was flat out RIDICULOUS.

But I bet you she has more education than you or 95% of the people who hate her.
From good schools.

She maybe a flake.
And WAY, too far left for my taste.
But she is NOT stupid.
And I think she basically means well...for a politician.
Which is a hell of a lot more than I can say for your thread or the article you linked to.


And here is some free advice?

The next time you are going to freak about about something, someone said?
At least check to make sure she ACTUALLY SAID IT?
That way you do not look so ridiculous.

Interesting, if you search the web looking for what exactly AOC said other than right leaning sites paraphrasing two lines you won't find anything, even the Washington Examiner who supposedly did the interview doesn't have a transcript easily available

So what we know then is what the right is telling us she said something they themselves can't document other than by citing other right wing sites

Sounds about right, fits right into the dog whistling theme of out of control crime the GOP has been employing for decades

WOW. GREAT DANCE MOVES!!

I PAY ATTENTION TO ACTUAL EVENTS...AND POSTED THE REPORTS CITING POLICE STATEMENTS ABOUT THEM.

YOU SHOULD TRY IT ,THEN YOU WON'T LOOK SO IGNORANT OF THE COMMONLY KNOWN FACTS OF THE ISSUE, WHILE HILARIOUSLY PRETENDING TO BE "SMUG" IN YOUR CLUELESSNESS.

WANT SOME "FREE ADVICE"? FINDOUT WTF YOU ARE BLATHERING ABOUT BEFORE POSTING.

START WITH POST #3 ON THIS THREAD.

IT'S NOT ME "FREAKING OUT"....IT'S THE VICTIMS OF THESE CRIMES ,EINSTEIN.

YOU PRETENDING TO JUSTIFY THE NY DITZ'S ASININE STATEMENTS IS MAKING YOU LOOK MORE THAN RIDICULOUS.

Are you taking the piss?

Facts
The riots over five days in the spring of 1992 left more than 50 people dead, and more than 2,000 injured.

The rioting destroyed or damaged over 1,000 buildings in the Los Angeles area. The estimated cost of the damages was over $1 billion.

More than 9,800 California National Guard troops were dispatched to restore order.

Nearly 12,000 people were arrested, though not all the arrests were directly related to the rioting.
