California Decriminalizes Shoplifting

Left-wing, conservative and libertarian pro-crime policies lead to a rise in crime… Proposition 47 effectively decriminalized a bunch of crimes, including shoplifting.
And you’ll never guess what happened next. Shoplifting. Lots and lots of shoplifting.
Perry Lutz says his struggle to survive as a small businessman became a lot harder after California voters reduced theft penalties 1½ years ago.
About a half-dozen times this year, shoplifters have stolen expensive drones or another of the remote-controlled toys he sells in HobbyTown USA, a small shop in Rocklin, northeast of Sacramento. “It’s just pretty much open season,” Lutz said. “They’ll pick the $800 unit and just grab it and run out the door.”
Anything below $950 keeps the crime a misdemeanor — and likely means the thieves face no pursuit and no punishment…
Again, rabbits cannot grasp why resources shouldn’t be free. Drones are so ubiquitous they might as well grow on trees, so there isn’t any cost to letting people just take them. The assumption that resources should be free, and the inability to conceive of their worth, is inherent to r-selected liberalism.
You will see more of this as the apocalypse approaches. It is the perfect way for liberals to lash out at the successful, without allowing any chance at retribution against themselves, and it allows them to feel as if they are currying favor with violent outsiders who will defeat their enemies for them.
Never think of a liberal ideologue as an American.
