#1 By design.

#2 Looks like California will get the Soviet system after all.
1. Wait in line. Hope store doesn't close while in line.
2. Go to a counter. Ask to buy a product. Receive slip.
3. Go to second counter, present slip. Pay for product and receive receipt.
4. Go to third counter, present receipt and receive product.
5. Walk nonchalantly past AK-47 toting guards.
6. Wait in line for another product, if available.

#3 A few years back Albertsons located in downtown El Cajon, Ca moved to outskirts of town over similar issues...homeless stealing from the grocery.

#4  This is not about a few random aimless bums.

This is subversion by a perverted billionaire and his deranged far-left minions.

A concerted plan to destroy rule of law in a great nation -- and then achieve a "transformation," like the one that Lenin and his backers achieved in 1917.

Wake the f--- up.

#5 They’re getting what they voted for (or allowed to be fraudulently faked) good and hard.

#7 Well, liberal white people always whine about "food deserts" in minority neighborhoods. Now they can have first-hand knowledge of one of their own talking screeching points

#8 If the Constitution were construed in accordance with its plain and intended meaning, there would be no question but that every member of Congress who is a self-described socialist would be ineligible to hold federal or state legislative, executive, and judicial office.

#9 They hate Amerikkka. They can't move it, so they want to make it into a foreign country. It's not the cheerful, adventurous country I grew up in now. It will be less so for our kids.

#10 It's the 'equitable' plan for nations; They can't bring the others up to this level, so they want to tear this one down to their level.

#11 Just close the stores. There problem solved.

#12 Safeway is big in California. If their corporate management has enough sense to push the politicians on this, or withhold campaign contributions, something might get done about it.

#13 I understand that's a big "if".

But it'd be funny if San Franciscans had to drive across one or the other of their famous bridges to buy groceries in Oakland or Sausalito.

#15 #9 They hate Amerikkka. They can't move it, so they want to make it into a foreign country. It's not the cheerful, adventurous country I grew up in now. It will be less so for our kids.

Agreed, Mr. Fred. Assuming our kids decide to stay in the new USSA.

But how will they make a go of it as honest and patriotic citizens in a country whose elites across every institution demonize them, seek to grab their wealth or positions, and persecute them for daring to protest the madness?

Even the military is being destroyed. Loyal officers are now telling their sons not to choose military careers. There is literally no institution left that has not been poisoned by these little Bolshevik grifters.

Our kids and grandkids will have to start looking abroad if they want to find a place where they can honor their heritage and have a chance at living as free men and women.

#18 ^ All the glowing stories in the MSM about expats and Americans giving up their passports suggests some people think elsewhere is better. I actually wish there were more of them. Especially the ones that renounce their citizenship (Assuming they don't keep on voting in our elections anyway.)

#19 Is Orban's Hungary corrupt? Sure. Same for Russia. Corruption in Poland, too, and N. Italy. Prob'y Austria as well.

But in those countries and regions, a white make of European descent can still make a living with honest work and raise a family with pride in his heritage. No one will tell him he's wicked, or that his daughters need to let Dudes in Dresses into the girls' restroom and then lie about the inevitable rapes or other attacks that these freaks perpetrate. No Wakandan bullshit, no stigmatization as "domestic terrorists," no suppression of speech by employers or neighbors or Tech Oligarchs.

When Putin and Orban make more sense about matters of liberty and culture than our own elites, it's time to start thinking about going east.

The question is not about freedom va tyranny. It's about choosing between left-authoritarianism and right-illiberalism.

Take your pick. There is no third option now.
