Haha one of my friend owns a shop similar and he only keeps display boxes in the front with nothing in it. His warehouse is a red light away so if a customer walks in they’ll have a wait time but if you order online he will have the items ready for the person who already purchased and it’s always kept in the back . His area is just as bad as Fresno . I told him just to do a online shop why rent a building to display boxes and he said he likes going to work everyday he doesn’t want to do it from home or warehouse some people are just like that . I’m not going to mention what he sells though because if I do people in California in that area will know who im talking about hope every shop owner stays safe , because even online shopping can have problems sort of like how Amazon is having a problem with the strike . So not everything you think you can always depend on will be there for you .

Recently passed Prop 36 has one serious loophole. Scum thieves need to have 2 prior convictions to have the prop applied.

SF and LA being prime examples. Other counties have tried harder, and that’s where we’ll see results. This is at best a mediocre solution to the rampant crime problem.
