True Left

The FBI posted on X recently warning Americans about the perils of organized mass retail theft rings and what the agency is doing to combat the problem. The picture they used in the post was a stock image of two white women instead of any of what On Balance host Leland Vittert says are a number of images from real crimes. Former FBI special agent Thomas Baker says the post is a continuing example of the "woke culture" in the FBI.

I think we know what demographic the bulk of the thieves are.

🤯 I never, ever, thought that I would see something like this.🤯

The white women!!!!

what about the thousands of black looters?

No dog whistle here! News Nation's racist inclinations are on FULL DISPLAY.

You guys are just mad they didn’t use black people.

Which demographic is most likely to shoplift?

Adolescents and young adults between the ages of 15 and 24 are the most common age group of shoplifters, accounting for approximately 55% of all offenders.

Which ethnicity shoplifts the most?

Native Americans had higher odds than whites, although blacks, Hispanics, and Asian Americans had lower odds of shoplifting than non-Hispanic whites. Being U.S.-born, never married, or in the youngest cohort (ages 18–29) also increased the risk for shoplifting.

What ethnicity are shoplifters?

If you look at the data, and you can go to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting database, and you'll see that about 70 percent of all the shoplifting in this country is done by whites.

Which gender shoplifts the most?

women

Who is most likely to shoplift? There isn't a typical shoplifter, despite what some might think. Men and women shoplift at similar rates, and although kids are often assumed to shoplift more often, the reality is that around 75 percent of shoplifters are adults.

The Italian writer, pacifist and activist Vittorio Arrigoni moved to Gaza in 2008 to bring attention to the Palestinian liberation cause.

In 2011, he was kidnapped and murdered by a local Salafist group which considered Italy “an infidel state.”

You forget to mention that Hamas initiated a manhunt to catch those responsible, laid siege to a house and refrained from imposing the death penalty (changed it to life imprisonment with hard labor) only because Arrigoni's parents asked Hamas to do so.

The Salafists were funded by the US, Israel, and the UK.

Hamas opposes these groups.
