Not true, under California penal code:

California Penal Code 459.5 PC defines the misdemeanor crime of shoplifting as entering an open business intending to steal merchandise valued at $950 or less. PC 459.5 is always a misdemeanor offense carrying up to six months in county jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

Criminals have little reason to have restraint.  They know that the police have been mostly defanged.  Even if they are arrested, they are out same or next day.

When your local government policies permit crime, this is what you get.  And moreover, this was predicted, because any sane person understood this would happen.

Justice is not being served in the most populous county in the nation because Gascón has driven talent away, demoted top lawyers and fights anyone who doesn’t share his views, according to multiple sources who have worked for him.

One former LA prosecutor said Gascón’s policies have eroded trust with the public the office serves, through generous plea deals allowing criminals to get out of jail or prison without serving hard time or declining to prosecute crimes at all.

“In my career as a prosecutor, I’ve never had victims’ families actually hate us until I came into this office,” a former deputy DA told The Post.

“We are hated by all the victims because of lack of prosecution and low sentences because of his policies.

“Gascón is so focused on justice for black and brown defendants, but the victims and their families are also black and brown. Where is the justice for them? We are making them victims of the criminal justice system yet again.”

No of that matters when the prosecutor decides not to prosecute, Einstein.

like I said, those caught are catch and release, do you live here?  charges dropped 99% of the time, much less again they aren't caught

This is where the situation gets more ugly and more complicated. 

There is A LOT of violent crime where the perpetrator AND the victim are both career criminals. You'll notice all of the George Soro's funded woke DA's tend to release those who hunt only "civilians"  I.E. they are less apt to go easy on one violent criminal from a pure organized street gang ( because they'll eventually be "green lit" over it by a rival gang) However some cases have slipped through the cracks. Also the "Six Degrees Of Separation" of some of the victims can be quite expansive. 

So Gascon, like Alvin Bragg, like Larry Krasner, and all the rest need full time security. 

Highly organized street gangs enforce order by killing someone's children. This is how a lot of hard line ethnic gangs took the East Coast by storm many years ago. 

In effect, Gascon is getting a private payday from Soros for all of this. Now Gascon is a Newsom/Pelosi loyalist. So he's only in power because of them and Alex Soros. While he will get paid, he has essentially put his entire family under threat the rest of their lives. So the problem is pushback will force changes in sentencing eventually. So you'll have some guys in organized crews who got off light, but a rival gang will get it heavy. All it takes is for a highly organized street crew to assess Gascon is in league with their rivals, and he's "green lit" 

All these Soro's DAs don't quite understand that the "cancel culture" could easily flip a pure 180 degrees. What if it shifts entirely the other way? 

When you erode the line of "civil order", the old unspoken rule of those in the "criminal justice system" being off limits no longer applies. That means these new age street thugs don't have the old code anymore. They'll kill cops, they'll kill judges, they'll kill DAs as well. They'll kill their kids. 

Also no one knows how long Alex Soros will keep playing this game. As soon as these DA's like Bragg, Krasner, Gascon and others are no longer "useful", then what happens to them?  They know too much, they've done too much, they are too much of a threat to flip in public on Soros. 

This is part of the total arrogance of many Americans, and again, for activist leftists. In other non Western countries, people would be outright killed for what Gascon, Bragg, Krasner, Boudin, Foxx and others are doing now. Impending sweeping political violence will soon become a new normal in this country. I mean look at the trajectory now. It's not like this is some huge secret. People are tired, they know they've been abandoned, and they know they won't get justice unless they take it in their own two hands. 

You can't exercise power if you've enraged the masses and the mob to come massacre you. 

You can't spend your Soros payoffs if you've incited the rank and file and the working class to come tear you apart. 

There's greed, and then there's mindless willfully obtuse entitled tone deaf greed. Gascon is a former cop, so he has to be completely a narcissist to rationalize away the real deal here. He chose money and fleeting power over his family.

Democrats who voted for Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón said they want the top prosecutor out because his progressive policies have created a “zombie town” where “smash and grab” robberies continue to climb.

Former Gascón supporters told The Post scenes like the mob of at least 50 crooks who plundered $100k worth of goods from a Nordstrom department store at the Topanga Mall on Saturday are becoming more commonplace because crooks don’t fear the consequences.

“DA George Gascón has created a situation where he refuses to prosecute these criminals,” said LA Deputy District Attorney John Lewin. “He won’t charge misdemeanors and he won’t do anything about homeless drug addicts. He has, through his sponsorship of Prop 47, essentially legalized theft, and so the area around Civic Center is a zombie town.

“This has resulted in his own employees being victimized by the local, primarily homeless and drug-addicted criminals who are on the street because George Gascón will not do his job and prosecute them. It is an absolute dereliction of duty. “

“I call myself a bleeding heart liberal, anti-gun and voted for Gascón because I thought he was going to be sensible and make reforms like he promised,” said one former supporter who wanted to remain anonymous because she is involved in Democrat party politics.

“Since he took office, it has just been the opposite to a point where we feel like we can’t walk in our own neighborhoods anymore.

“We are f—ing terrified because these start out as low-level crimes, but it has gradually exploded. These criminals are not getting prosecuted and they know it. It’s off the rails.”

Another former supporter said Gascón’s refusal to charge gun, gang and other sentencing enhancements against criminals has created a free-for-all. The voter, who wanted to remain anonymous, said prowlers have been more common in her Santa Monica neighborhood where the median home price is $1.6 million.

“People who are committing these crimes, if they do ever get arrested, are let out again so it’s pretty much a revolving door,” the source said. “These smash and grabs are one thing, but as someone who was born and raised in Los Angeles, this seems unprecedented.

“Just a year ago someone tried to break into our house. I’m not a fearful person, but I do have two daughters and I question whether I should let them even go around the neighborhood by themselves when people are loitering and transients everywhere. Even the malls are no longer safe.”

I applied to three different large retail giants for theft control/Loss prevention job. I’m more than qualified for it. I went to three interviews and they asked me many questions about my experience, which is in many’s to be over qualified.All three interviews were going swell until I was asked if I have any question. Me: What is the procedure for dealing with a shoplifter?  Call the police ? I noticed there are no detail officers here and  no employees at the exit. Why? They all said  if we try stop them, they will fall on the floor and purposely trip on what they’re stealing and then sue us for at least ten grand in damages. Not worth it. We let them go.  Me: So this happens frequently a nd they just load and walk right out the door every week? Why don’t you put someone in the parking lot when they come and pretend to bring in shopping carts?  Shitheaddd: We don’t want our employees put in any danger, or negative publicity and the consequences from it. I shook my head and said ok. 
 

This is happening everywhere.
