BLACK GRINS WHEN SENTENCED FOR MURDERING INNOCENT TEEN. 50 YEARS!

WE WILL SOON REACH A POINT WHEREBY ALL OF AMERICA IS CLOSED DOWN DUE TO BLACK CRIME.
IN ACROSS THE BAY SAN FRANCISCO, ONLY 8% OF THE POPULATION IS BLACK. THESE PEOPLE PERPETRATE 40% OF THE CRIME. THESE STATS ARE PRE-COVID. CAR JACKINGS, STORE LOOTINGS AND ASSAULTS ARE TYPICALLY ALL BLACK CRIMES.
IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL D.C., PEOPLE ARE AFRAID TO LEAVE THEIR HOMES AT NIGHT DUE TO BLACK CRIME.
In a statement confirmed by an ABC7 reporter and obtained Sunday by The Standard, In-N-Out Chief Operating Officer Denny Warnick spoke plainly about the company's "repeated steps to create safer conditions," saying "our customers and Associates are regularly victimized by car break-ins, property damage, theft and armed robberies."
Another historic first: In-N-Out closes a restaurant in Oakland on truly scary crime concerns
In crime-plagued Oakland, the city achieved a "historic first" of they kind they'd probably rather not advertise:
According to the San Francisco Standard:
In-N-Out Burger announced Sunday that it plans to close its Oakland location within the next two months due to what it described as "ongoing issues with crime."
Fine and undandy.
In California, especially Southern California, but also in the north, In-N-Out Burgers is an institution.
Older than McDonald's, it's popular because of its non-processed food with no chemicals to give you a headache, and for its simple menu with the best prices on the fast food scene of California. People love the place, it's iconic, they hop off from airplanes at LAX and other airports and make a beeline to the In-N-Out nearby. They buy branded merchandise with its cute little palm tree designs from the place. Movie stars go there and yes, it is to be seen.
I just went to In-N-Out this weekend in San Diego where I carefully timed my visit to make sure I got in ahead of the crowd at the drive-thru because the car lines can be very long, though the restaurant is pretty good at making it move quickly anyway. A young man in a traditional 1950s white military-style hat greeted me and took my order from the window, well before I got to the order intercom or the pay window. My order was all done and ready to go by the time I got to the pickup window.
Still, it's competitive from even the road to get into the line and frequently, the car line snakes out into the road, so I know the visit needs to be timed and planned. Once through, though it's delicious!
The details of that closure, from the company are ugly enough:
In a statement confirmed by an ABC7 reporter and obtained Sunday by The Standard, In-N-Out Chief Operating Officer Denny Warnick spoke plainly about the company's "repeated steps to create safer conditions," saying "our customers and Associates are regularly victimized by car break-ins, property damage, theft and armed robberies."
The company said the store's last day of business would be Sunday, March 24.
In-N-Out thanked the community for its 18 years of support before acknowledging the impact the sudden closure would have on workers and their families, stating that "this location remains a busy and profitable one for the company, but our top priority must be the safety and well- being of our Customers and Associates—we cannot ask them to visit or work in an unsafe environment."
It's pretty bad if you have to close a profitable restaurant because the crime hitting your customers and staff outweighs even the profit. As with LAX, this In-N-Out is located on the highway to Oakland's airport which makes it a convenient place to eat in the era of no-meal airline flights.
Almost no residents nearby. Car dealers, gas stations, and office buildings. Across the freeway is the Oakland. Coliseum, abandoned by its basketball, football, and (rumored soon) baseball tenants.
It gets even worse when you read the San Francisco Chronicle's account of what was going on there:
The In-N-Out, a convenient pit stop for travelers headed to Oakland International Airport and a buzzy hangout after A’s games at the Coliseum, has become the epicenter for crime in a city grappling with a surge in violence and theft. Since 2019, police have logged 1,335 incidents in the vicinity of the diner on 8300 Oakport St. — more than any other location in Oakland.
...and...
That number includes nine robberies, two commercial burglaries, four domestic violence incidents and 1,174 car break-ins, according to Oakland police data. Chaotic scenes unfold daily. Sean Crawford, who works in a building around the corner from the diner, said he’s watched robbery crews bust doors of work vans and heard In-N-Out customers loudly confronting burglars.
In one instance last year, Crawford and some co-workers were driving by the diner when they saw a car pull up to the drive-thru line. Two people jumped out and methodically went from vehicle to vehicle, robbing people at gunpoint, Crawford said.
This is the kind of horror that happens in Latin America, in the bad parts of Venezuela, or Colombia, or maybe Brazil during its worst years. You can't build a society with trust with that kind of unpunished crime going on, and obviously, it's been going on a long time for it to get to that level.
In-N-Out is apparently no stranger to these security concerns, either, what with its long car lines. Here is the one I went to -- and I had no idea there had been problems until I saw this CBS8 report from a few years ago:
What a nightmare.
San Diego's is still there but Oakland has another 'historic first' -- the first blue city to send In-N-Out fleeing for refuge based on the conditions of the city -- even though they were making money.
I hope the leftists running that city are proud of themselves.

VIDEO — ‘F**k These Cops!’: NYC Driver Accused of Hitting Policeman Says ‘It’s a Lesson to Him’
A driver accused of hitting a police officer in New York City apparently did it on purpose, sources told the New York Post on Friday.
Authorities and sources said the suspect, identified as 24-year-old Sahara Dula, was behind the wheel of her Lexus going the wrong way on the Upper East Side on Wednesday when she allegedly hit the New York City Police Department (NYPD) officer.
An image shows the suspect in the case:
The Post article noted Dula was allegedly high on marijuana at the time. The article continued:
“I told the cop I wanted to go straight, and he wouldn’t move, so I hit him. I did it on purpose,’’ Dula later told investigators, according to court papers.
“F–k these cops! He wouldn’t move!’’ she screamed a few minutes after the incident, the documents claim — with a source saying Dula added, “F–k these cops, it’s a lesson to him, and hopefully he doesn’t want to be a cop anymore.”
Dash camera footage caught the moment the incident unfolded, showing the officer approaching the black vehicle, which was pointed the wrong way on the street, according to PIX 11 News.
Someone yells, “Hey! Be careful!” seconds before the car lurches forward and smashes into the officer. After his body slams into the hood, it flips and lands on the street. The driver exits the vehicle with her hands in the air shortly after the collision.
According to the Post, the incident happened as officers were investigating an unrelated robbery at a store and had closed off the area. The officer involved suffered a broken leg and bruising.
The outlet also said Dula has a degree in criminal justice and reportedly runs a business mentoring children through music to keep them off the streets and away from drugs.
In addition, the suspect also reportedly has bipolar disorder, takes several medications, and is a mental health patient.
In a social media post on Thursday, Post Millennial Senior Editor Andy Ngô described Dula as a Black Lives Matter (BLM) activist:
The Post article detailed the charges Dula faces:
Dula was charged with first-degree attempted assault, attempted aggravated assault upon a police officer, second-degree assault, second-degree reckless endangerment, and operating a vehicle while ability impaired by drugs and reckless driving, according to the criminal complaint.
The report also noted that the suspect has a history of run-ins with the law.
According to Pix 11, the suspect is held on a $25,000 cash bail and is in custody on Rikers Island.
Police: Chicago Man Charged with Stealing Car While Wearing Ankle Monitor for Similar Cases
A 19-year-old man in Chicago is accused of stealing a car after getting into trouble for a pair of similar cases in 2023.
Officials charged the man with stealing the vehicle while he was wearing an ankle monitor for two other stolen car incidents in March, CWB Chicago reported on Tuesday.
The suspect, identified as Jonathan Curtis, is behind bars and labeled a public safety threat and flight risk in two of the cases.
An image shows the man in question:
“Clearly wasn’t monitored well enough! Smh,” one social media user commented on the story, while another said, “Well who could have seen that coming?”
North Riverside cops arrested Curtis on March 2, saying he struck one of their patrol cars with a stolen Jeep Cherokee and also possessed a loaded firearm, according to court records. After appearing before Judge Sheree Henry, he posted a $500 bail deposit and went home on an ankle monitor the next day.
Two months later, Judge Geary Kull ordered the sheriff’s office to remove Curtis’ ankle monitor.
And, two months after that, on July 13, cops arrested Curtis for allegedly possessing a stolen Toyota Camry in the 600 block of North Lorel. Prosecutors charged him with possessing a stolen motor vehicle and fleeing and attempting to elude.
Illinois became the first state in the nation to eliminate cash bail in September, Breitbart News reported at the time. The decision brought heavy criticism to the Democrat-controlled state.
Per the CWB Chicago article, the suspect was told to go home in October and was fitted with an ankle monitor. However, a few months later, police allegedly watched Curtis steal a car its owner left running as it was parked on North Campbell.
The officers tailed him until he exited the vehicle on North Juneway Terrace. When he got back into the car, the officers tried to make a traffic stop but were forced to stop pursuing when he busted through a pair of red lights.
The suspect’s ankle monitor GPS reportedly showed he was there when those incidents occurred.
It is important to note that in 2020, Chicago police introduced a vehicle pursuit policy that gave officers a list to consider when deciding if they should chase a vehicle, according to Breitbart News.
The recent CWB Chicago article said the suspect was arrested for this third case and charged with aggravated possession of a stolen motor vehicle as well as aggravated fleeing. He is scheduled to appear in court in the next few weeks.
VIDEO – ‘It’s Scary’: NYC Hospital Worker Accused in Queens Stabbing Spree
The 27-year-old accused in a stabbing spree across Queens has been charged in five attacks after being caught on Wednesday.
Authorities charged Jermain Rigueur with three counts of attempted murder, four counts of assault, a single count of attempted assault, and criminal possession of a weapon, the New York Post reported Thursday.
Police arrested the suspect, who works as a greeter for Brooklyn’s Woodhull Hospital, on Wednesday evening after tracking him down at his home in Springfield Gardens, according to CBS New York.
“It’s scary,” one neighbor told the outlet. “I’m so happy that they caught him”:
The first incident happened on January 8 when a grandfather was stabbed in the back while walking to a laundromat. The victim claimed the suspect smiled at him as he walked away from the scene, the elderly man told the Post.
A woman was stabbed as she walked home from work Tuesday evening and three other victims were stabbed early Wednesday.
Officials with the New York City Police Department (NYPD) alerted the public to the situation and manhunt on Wednesday morning before they found him hours later.
“On top of the five slashings, police are probing whether Rigueur is the same suspect who attacked a man on a Brooklyn subway platform Wednesday,” the Post report said.
Surveillance video shows the suspect, wearing a grey hoodie and dark colored pants, walking down a sidewalk and passing in front of a shop. Moments later, he turns around and produces what appears to be a large knife from his pocket:
The CBS report said the man has no criminal history and the hospital has placed him on administrative leave.
When speaking of one of the incidents during a news conference, an official said, “The suspect actually laughed in the victim’s face after he stabbed him,” according to Fox 5 New York.
Watch: Fired Atlanta Airport Barista Violently Attacks Managers as Travelers Watch
A former Atlanta, Georgia, airport coffee shop worker has gone viral for attacking the store’s managers with a chair after being fired.
Shacoria Elly was a barista at the Harvest & Grounds inside Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport when she got into an argument with a co-worker about espresso shots on January 13, according to a police report obtained by Fox 5 Atlanta.
A video captured by a witness begins with Elly screaming, “Give me my stuff!” while shoving two male store managers in an attempt to get into the employee area behind the counter.
The manager in a red polo shirt attempts to subdue her as she fights, saying, “No, you can walk away. I’ll get your fucking stuff.”
He repeatedly points to the exit and tells Elly to “get out” as she continues to push him while yelling and then turning her attention to the second manager in a green shirt.
Elly can then be seen swinging her arms at the other manager as he tries to defend himself before she screams, “Bitch!” and grabs a nearby metal chair.
Before she can do damage with the improvised weapon, the taller manager snatches it from her grasp while the shorter one blocks her punches.
The video escalates even more when Elly, again, rushes at the red-shirted man, this time only to find herself tossed onto the floor to the horror of shocked onlookers.
Gasps erupt from the crowd as Elly connects with the floor before quickly bouncing back up to her feet and continuing to fight.
The young woman again swings at both of the managers before storming out of the store as the managers say to “call the police.”
Elly’s departure lasts all of two seconds before she makes a sharp 180-degree turn, sprints back into the store, and leaps over the coffee bar to the back of the shop.
Both managers grab Elly as she flings store products and equipment around before she eventually manages to grab a black jacket and bag.
The woman slips and falls to the floor again before making her final exit as the video ends.
Police said Elly was “terminated from her position” in their report, and airport security confiscated her badge.
“Elly was no longer in the area when the officer arrived. It does not appear from the report that officials are charging her with any crime,” Fox 5 noted.

Prosecutors: Chicago Woman Left Brain Dead After Eight-Time Felon Attacked Her on Train
A 61-year-old Chicago woman is reportedly brain dead and may not live after she was beaten during a robbery on a train, prosecutors say.
The suspect in the case is an eight-time felon who is on parole for a separate robbery involving a police officer, CWB Chicago reported Wednesday.
“Judge William Fahy granted the state’s petition to detain Mijawon Johnson, 36, as a public safety threat during a hearing at the Leighton Criminal Courthouse. State officials have also moved to revoke his parole,” the outlet said.
An image shows the suspect in the case:
Johnson was apparently caught on surveillance footage allegedly trying to swipe the woman’s bag as she rode the Red Line train on January 4.
He is accused of repeatedly hitting her in the head and stomach and stomping on her body before leaving the train.
After she was found unresponsive, the victim was put on a ventilator. Prosecutors say she is brain-dead and not expected to live very long.
Video footage shows crews near an ambulance outside the Red Line station where the incident occurred:
The suspect was identified, and police officers found him and took him into custody once they spotted him riding a Chicago Transit Authority bus.
He now faces charges of attempted murder along with two counts of aggravated battery in the case.
The CWB Chicago report noted that “Prosecutors also charged him with violating an order of protection for allegedly entering a 27-year-old Old Town woman’s residence on New Year’s Eve after being ordered to stay away.”
The suspect’s parole came in August after he served a portion of time for robbing a covert narcotics officer in 2021. At the time, he was on parole for aggravated battery of a law enforcement officer.
Illinois Department of Corrections records report that the suspect was given prison sentences numerous times for narcotics over the course of several years, per the CWB Chicago article.
Social media users commented on the report, one person writing, “You get what you vote for Chicago!!!”
“Shocking that an 8x felon would continue to commit crime,” another user stated.
In December, progressive Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson claimed homicides and shootings had gone down in the city and that money “for restoration and reparations” would help address the “cycle of violence” plaguing the city’s residents, according to Breitbart News.
