Another sign of the collapse of our civil society. Store owners be aware of this trend:

On Saturday, St. Paul police say 50 kids swarmed a Holiday store on Wabasha, a so-called mob theft or mob robbery. They stormed in together, their numbers overwhelming and just started stealing.

“They steal your basic convenience store type of goods and run out,â€

Sort of how like millions of illegal aliens sneak into the US stealing all they can of our taxpayer funded social services, free medical, free schooling, etc. No one's enforcing them, the mobs figure they can get away with it too.

another reason to have personal protection... the police will show up and do a real good report long after the crime was committed and the coroner puts you in a body bag

its going to get much worse

Nothing new about this I saw my first one 25yrs. ago! The clerk asked me if "I was going to do something!" I said "yeah! watch!" get my ass shot off over a couple 12 packs of beer and some wine coolers! I told her "Be my guest!"

Are these mobs of illegals?

Flash robberies are common in Latin America and have been for decades.

In Rio, flash robbers, some armed with broken glass, guns, baseball bats, etc invade crowded beaches to rob people. Other times, they simply invade stores and supermarkets in large groups to steal whatever they can.

These types of robbers are part of a sub-culture that was allowed to develop and grow.

The same will happen in the U.S.A.

It's just a matter of time.

I can see this becoming a HUGE trend-especially with twitter's help.
