The reality is that the crime was over in mere seconds and the police can’t always get to places that fast. Police also prioritize life threatening situations like domestic violence, vehicle accidents, assaults and fentanyl. The MoCo police are not just ignoring crime despite the ignorant crap spewed here daily.

Fentanyl impacts one person and it's done by choice.

Armed (assumed in these incidents) robbery impacts an entire community.

I'll take the choice that impacts most of the taxpayers.

Fentanyl causes more death and hospitalizations than robbery. By a lot. Fentanyl ODs are not “by choice” they are typically accidental and caused by an unregulated illegal supply of counterfeit pills or adulterated street drugs. I see no evidence of the CVS stores being armed robbery. I see a typical smash and grab shoplifting team that doesn’t need or want to flash a gun.

You are simply flat out wrong and refuse to look at objective facts.

Just have a hired hand go lay down the spike sheet by the get away car.

Then cuff up the perps.

Then enforce the laws as written.

FYI- BLM Defund the Police activists didn’t write the laws nor change them, so get going.

“This wave of rip-offs is not being driven by individual shoplifters, but by large, organized theft operations that sell stolen goods online. Retailers and experts say the problem spiked during the pandemic, when stores cut back on staff. Venues like Amazon and eBay give thieves a convenient way to resell stolen goods. Last year the Prosecutors Alliance of California estimated that $500 billion worth of stolen or counterfeit goods are sold every year through online marketplaces. Some operations recruit drug addicts as "boosters," instructing them what to steal. "This is not petty theft," said Walgreens CFO James Kehoe. "These are gangs that actually go in and empty our stores of beauty products."

Start with consequences, law and order.

Theft is illegal.

Why isn't anyone asking what Amazon and ebay are doing about this? They are basically fencing stolen goods and created much of this problem.

Police need to do their jobs- get there fast, get crooks into legal system, gPs tracked, consequences.

Judicial system needs teeth.

Mass media needs to publicize all crimes and crooks and details. Stop hiding facts and trends.

You don't know that they aren't armed.

To your point on Fentanyl...buying drugs on the streets is a crime. You don't die from getting the appropriate dose in the hospital. You die from obtaining illegal narcotics, or stealing them from someone and voluntarily taking it.

You are simply flat out wrong and refuse to look at objective facts.

I care about my local community, property, safety, amenities, laws, and its entire police force.

That has nothing to do with repeat drug addicts across the country. They ain’t at CVS.

It’s that simple. No one can save a serious drug addict. Ask any therapist about setting those boundaries.

While posting online is of course a legitimate way to discuss the issue, I would encourage any constituents to email concerns there as well, to ensure that our elected officials are informed that this issue is of concern to many. If they don’t understand how much this bothers people, it’s hard to expect them to take any action.

Just emailed him and everyone on the Public Safety committee.

Great - that is not accurate in Bethesda. I don't care what happens in Baltimore, Omaha or Atlanta. I care about what happens in my back yard. Crime is rising. Fix that.

Grow up.

They’re not mowing down the sangamore parking lot in a Honda and terrorizing and stealing from stores.

For all you know all that makeup and hair supplies and nail polish is going straight to the Beauty Salon in Anacostia.

Don’t worry everyone, there won’t be any consequences for them! We’ll just have a little circle to chat it out and they’ll be on their way.

We must do everything we can to protect them. Can’t you see they’ve had a traumatic upbringing?

Just keep electing the people we have elected before.

that's because you're not adjacent to the DC boarder. The river helps.

There also isn't crime in Potomac...

Yeah, those criminals in Chevy Chase, DC wreck havoc on the poor citizens of Chevy Chase, MD. /s

Wrong again. Bethesda has more ODs than homicide or armed robbery.

It’s funny how the only people I ever hear saying this are Republican trolls!

Start your own teen or drug addict thread Pp

Theft and looting stats (codifed as “armed robbery”, ur cherry picked phrase?) is the topic here and lack of enforcement and safety in the neighborhood.
