As you may have noticed, there are parts in America where shoplifting and crime is on the rise. Not in real America, but in the progressive cities where voters keep voting for the same pro-crime progressive policies and wonder why there is so much crime in their progressive cities. Stores have been forced to put everything behind plexiglass, so shoplifter-Americans need to step up their game. For one dude at an NYC Walgreens, that means a blowtorch.

Wait... a blowtorch?!

You have to marvel at how the criminal element knows how little at risk they are about anything happening to them. People who stop criminals are f*cked. That's NYC's "brand." Criminals have carte blanche.

This hooligan wanted what was behind that plexiglass. He took the time to concoct a plan. He came to the conclusion if he walked into Walgreens with a blow torch, he could probably melt through the plexiglass. After all, they don't stop him from stealing. Why would they stop him from destroying private property?

The worst-case scenario is the fire gets out of control and he accidentally burns the building down. But then the thief can claim he was having a mostly peaceful protest and every elected official in NYC will look the other way. All while the cops take out their phones to count down how many more days they have left until retirement.
