Democrats might want you to think that. They will claim that their radical policies with regard to criminal behavior have nothing to do with the lawbreaking that’s happening in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis.
Just an unlucky coincidence, right?
San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin announced felony charges for nine of the dozens of looters who crashed into luxury stores in San Francisco and ran out with several hundred thousand dollars in merchandise.
“These are not petty thefts,” Boudin said in a Tuesday afternoon press conference. “This is not misdemeanor conduct. This is felony conduct,” said the adopted son of Weather Underground parents Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.
Of the dozens seen at Louis Vuitton and other retailers on Friday night, the nine individuals arrested by San Francisco police and charged by the District Attorney’s Office are between the ages of 23 to 53. They are largely based in San Francisco and the broader Bay Area, with the exception of one man from Georgia, according to a list provided by San Francisco police.
“We do not tolerate that kind of behavior in our city,” Boudin added.
