Yeah, historically low crime because a lot of the crime is not considered crime anymore. Why thousands of stores are closing in California?

- RajT88 2y agoWell and good as a talking point, but violent crime is still illegal and way down.

- ryandamm 2y agoWalgreen’s was closing stores anyway and used the pandemic shoplifting as an excuse… but it was never the actual reason. Crime is at historical lows.
- ajmurmann 2y agoEven if shoplifting at Walgreens was the reason for closure, the downtowns of a few "liberal cities" (it's always the same 3-4 mentioned) are extremely unlikely to have that much impact on national statistics.
- moogly 2y ago> Why thousands of stores are closing in California? Because everyone's buying everything online and getting it delivered to their homes.
- mrguyorama 2y agoThe retail industry lobbying group itself noted that "shrink", the term for loss of revenue due to items walking off or being damaged, has remained unchanged since the 90s. The people telling you that there is an immense wave of shoplifting are outright lying.
