They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but some are bigger than that and have greater impact, causing an almost visceral reaction. When I read the backstory and saw this obvious FBI public relations picture of agents kneeling as BLM passed by in DC, my immediate reaction was “what an embarrassment…” I guess I’m old school, but the mere consideration of a US Law Enforcement Agency (LEA)-never mind the FBI-bending a knee-entertaining-condoning the notion of what has to be translated as submission or bowing behavior to criminals-is aberrant, wrong, misguided and just plain ignorant. I mean-what could be worse?
In society today we have many-and it sadly might be a majority of Americans-who think this is perfectly all right behavior. In this case the FBI kneeling occurred in a summer of violence where ANTIFA and BLM “mostly peaceful riots” caused billions of dollars-worth of damages and about a dozen deaths. Some 14K were arrested, but nearly all of them “walked.”
In fact, in some places like New York City, rioters successfully sued the city for “overreacting.” The precedent set by these actions has resulted in predictable further bad behavior and even more ignoring by law enforcement of the lawlessness to the point where businesses in many communities are shuttering their doors because of theft, crime and criminality that places customers at risk.
The FBI is here to help, although-as evidenced by this “campaign”- they apparently prefer to do so through political bootlicking and idjiotcy. This article highlights the pure hackery, political approach the FBI took to an issue of concern for a lot of communities across America: THAT’S The Picture You’re Going With? FBI Beclowns Itself Talking About Organized Retail Theft.
If you have not seen the article at the link above–or others much like it all over the Internet–then you really must!
First impression is to laugh hysterically at the FBI‘s buffoonery in a posed-models photo depicting two well-dressed upper-middle class White girls as the supposed archetypes of the kind of dangerous criminals who are conducting organized smash-and-grab looting in America’s Democrat-controlled cities, causing $$$ billions in losses and forcing even large retail chain stores to abandon the cities. The near totality of the smash-and-grab looting is performed by Black teenage thugs from the urban ghettos, most often males–NOT by two fashionable wealthy White girls.
As the many responders on social media point out, all the FBI had to do was to look at the thousands of security camera and cell phone videos of the actual criminals doing these crimes to see what particular ethnicity, age-group, gender, and shady class of people are almost solely the ones conducting these outrageous crimes. Maybe those two girls are dangerous Right-wing MAGA Christian White supremacists, too?!?!?
The FBI is ideologically doing back-flips to avoid identifying the real perpetrators of mass thuggery and smash-and-grab looting all over the Biden regime’s Amerika. They are trying to hide the terrifying and tragic reality that Amerika has a pervasive, very serious young Black male thug societal problem….And liberal Democrat politicians and their policies are largely to blame!
This obvious racial propaganda green-lighting snow-job by the FBI is an extension (and “the other side of the coin”) of the same ideological brainwashing conducted by the Left via Information Technology, Mainstream Media, and social media–precisely like the Google Gemini AI algorithms….that now depict all great historical figures (Founding Fathers, Presidents, Popes, Composers, etc.) as all Black Africans or in a few cases as brown-skinned Third World ethnicity–or the 90% of TV commercials that since January 2021 now feature only Blacks selling all manner of products and services, even in ridiculous situations where you’d never see a real Black person! This is all DELIBERATE political brainwashing!
This BNN article is on point describing the “FBI’s Misstep” about what many observed as absolute tone-deaf ignorance of the issue that merits attention, but not in such a ham handed, pathetic way. Some might wonder what all the fuss is about-just a harmless picture to amplify a message: but that begs the question about the message. Here are a few examples that could be used to better effect…
From NPR, A ‘mob of criminals’ stole more than $300,000 worth of goods from an LA Nordstrom.
From back in the COVID days comes this little tidbit where nearly 400K in merchandise was stolen,14 were arrested in 11 robberies, but they were all released.
This story explains recognition by police that these are not incidents of “looting,” but rather organized robbery.
While this example in New York City describes BLM organized “smash and grab” operations as an outgrowth of Floyd protests exacerbated by soft on crime community police work and the criminal justice system.
Business closures in Oakland, Ca due to crime, lawlessness, theft, and no accountability have reached an alarming number: authorities seem either unwilling or powerless to do something about it….Oakland In-N-Out, Soul Food Classic, Dennys, Starbucks, Black Bear Diner, Subway…..
The In-N-Out Burger was an iconic business of some several decades, still making a profit: good money! However, the owner made the decision to close out of empathy and safety concerns for customers.
Many other stores in the retail and drugs/pharmacy business have closed in markets where theft was so pervasive it compromised profitability, including Walmart, Target, Macy’s, Best Buy, Starbucks and others. Grocery stores and retail chains alike have abandoned self-checkout capability in many venues.
Some members of society-mostly leftists or BLM (same, same) described Chicago “smash and grab” and “flash mob” theft as a form of “reparations,” while branding those calling out these criminals, as, well, criminals, racist: and of course they would.
Chicago’s relatively new mayor is trying to make the case that reparations for descendants of slaves are somehow going to result in lower crime rates. So taxpayers should incentivize by funding these criminals so they won’t loot, steal and murder: a bold strategy.
The Chicago mayor’s idjiotic comments belie the facts that indicate organized “crews” are behind many of the organized robberies, as reported in this story where one group accounted for some 200 thefts. These are petty criminals, incentivized by a lack of prevention and law enforcement. They probably could not spell “reparations” if you tattooed it on their foreheads…
This article on Florida legislation discusses potential progress through legislation. Such efforts expose the conflict between dealing with petty criminals, criminal behavior and the pure scale of crime in big cities that forces bigger and bigger trigger thresholds on dollar amounts, number of criminals, methodology and other factors. These somewhat “minor petty criminal acts” do not compete well for attention in communities where murder, drugs and street violence are much more important activities. You also see the ever present and never-ending specter of politics here: most taxpayers do not see crime as a political issue, e.g., as an R and D problem-unless they live in a crime-ridden “D” community.
The above references and stories of this widespread problem of Organized Retail Theft is the reason the FBI was finally forced to address it in some way. Which speaks to just how out of touch the agency leadership is with America.
This instance goes to show that the FBI has been totally corrupted and rabidly politicized and can no longer be trusted to enforce the laws faithfully and equally under the Constitution. The FBI is now just a weaponized tool of the Democrat Party….

Don’t you understand? It would be raaaaacist to have used a photo of anyone other than already well-to-do looking white people in a photo mentioning retail theft.
Sure, well-to-do looking white people do occasionally commit retail theft; their number is greater than zero. The fact that that number is nevertheless lower than it is for discriminated-against non-white people isn’t really their fault, but the result of slavery, Jim Crow segregation, redlining, micro-aggressions, just everything.
Sorry-I don’t know what I was thinking-my anonymous collaborator from a current communist/socialist country gave me these ideas–I’m a simple observer of life, government issue….
