  1. Black people are the problem

  2. Prices are way too high. That's a problem also. Inflation from Bidens administration!!!

  3. honestly I wanted to work at target but since I see this…. if its going to be the main target of shoplifting then I dont want to work there lol.

  4. BLM, blk looters matter!

  5. wow, never heard of stores closing due to theft from white people, from a non white immigrant.

    keep in mind the bronx was a nice place prior to the 1960s and a jungle post 1960s, who moved out and who moved in?

  6. Keep voting Democrat you'll be buying everything online in 20 years. Walk in stores will be gone. You will shop online then pickup In Parking lot or delivered to home for a charge. 100% will happen.

  7. Boston might be next

  8. Tell Biden to resolve this then! Stop blaming China!

  9. Could not have happened to a more deserving company….hey everyone do you see the connection between race and violence

  10. No one brings up the partnership between Target and CVS. A day before Target announced its closures CVS announced a 900 store closure. The 9 Target closures are small store urban formats that used to be called “City Target”. These were introduced after their partnership with CVS. These were designed to compete with Walgreen’s. Retail pharmacies are struggling, because insurance companies have gone direct to consumer. A store losing a million dollars from people stealing T-Shirts is a writeoff. The pharmaceutical industry cutting you off from your goldmine is not a writeoff and puts these businesses on life support.

  11. you can thank BLM

  12. You did that, Democrat party.

  13. I got one word, AMAZON. They won't admit it, but only blame low sales and performance on theft only

  14. ANY BODY FIGURED OUT WHY YET, SOFT ON CRIME DEMOCRATS, AND IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE, CHANGE YOUR VOTE, CHANGE YOUR LIFE

  15. (Daniel 9:27 was fulfilled on August 13 2023 also when the woman began travailing in birth to fulfill the time of the gentiles for the mystery of Revelation 12 to be completed, Daniel 12:1 next, three riders released within 2020 and 2023. These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear.)

    “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.

    “And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.

    “All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.

    “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.

    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.

    “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 3 to 6.

    “Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.”

    Acts, chapter 8, verse 22.

    “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3.

    “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 4, verse 17.

    “After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.”

    Hosea, chapter 6, verse 2.

    “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 8.

    “knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 to 4.

    “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

    First Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 3.

    “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

    First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verse 16 to 17.

    “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 52.

    “I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 17, verse 34 to 36.

  16. Wait, America has lots of guns. Why aren't they being used on these thieving bastards?
    There's more than meets the eye here. Because of all this theft the higher ups have decided to shut down certain stores. These stores are probably doing terrible business and need to pass the blame onto someone else.

  17. And the same group of people shoplifting and boldly ripping these stores off will be the first and loudest complainers when they have no place to shop, well to shoplift from!

  18. Democrats can order their voters to stop looting, Problem Solved

  19. Organized hordes of criminals are a direct result of demomarxist policies. You get what you vote for. Enjoy.

  20. Good! Blame the administration and its party on failure to be tough on crime , the border or anything else !!!!!! Enjoy the results of your choices to run these cities , states , and federal government !!!

  21. "Poverty is the worst form of violence"….. Mahatma Gandhi 🇮🇳

  22. Close the companies that stole my money to thrive. I should never be broke.

  23. Why is it in cities that are in democratic states?

  24. WHY ARE ALL OF THE LOOTERS BLACK????

    *********************************************************************

  25. The Soul Brothers are to blame

  26. Good! Shut all the stores down in these democrat controlled war zones.

  27. Thank you for Electing antifa/Blm liberals state and local officials, DA attorney office wont put criminals to jail for making crime legal..

  28. Thanks to the democats most stores will be gone soon.

  29. Get caught stealing in Pennsylvania your ass is getting booked and going to jail.

  30. I'm pretty sure that the boycott against Target for having children's Pride merch is why they're closing stores😂😂😂😂

  31. It is time to start cutting off hands for people who steal. Or bring back a law enforcement three times that was before to clean cities from criminals.

  32. ima be honest with ya'll if you think theft is the main and only reason these stores are shutting then dont fool yourself….Look where these stores are…are they in rich neighborhoods? no? hmmm….personally while i believe it is part of the problem I think its just a good excuse for them to close already low performing stores while shifting the blame and anger to law enforcement and the thieves

  33. Well that's what happens when you cross the line with pushing the LGBTQ Agenda on children ….. They can't afford to keep all their stores open due to STILL being Boycotted

  34. All designed to create a cashless society. That way they can easily control illiberal White Americans. “Oh AMAZON found out you don’t believe White privilege is real, so you no longer have an account with us, good day.”

  35. I’ve been reading YouTube comments saying that retail theft isn’t a problem and it’s being overblown by media. Anybody have insight?

  36. It's also because of the banking of buying from them. Once they all find a reason to shut ecru thing down. There will be only internet. They get what they want. A way to block selling and buying. From those who do not comply against YHWH.
