As RedState has extensively documented, organized retail theft has become a big problem in America, with the areas hardest hit of course being Democrat-run big cities, where these theft rings know that more often than not they’ll either face limited punishment or get away scot-free.
Despite the overwhelming preponderance of evidence showing us just how pervasive this issue is in the United States, we are still getting gaslit by Democrat politicos and the mainstream media, both of which are begging you not to believe what you’ve seen with your own eyes.

The FBI, though, wants you to know that they are aware of how much this problem is negatively impacting both retailers and the communities they serve, so much so that they took to the Twitter machine Monday to brag about the tactics they’ve allegedly been using to combat these organized retail theft rings.
Here’s what they posted:
Higher prices, dangerous products, and closing businesses. These are just some of the impacts Organized Retail Theft has on everyday Americans.

That… does not look like a photo of your typical band of theft mobs and smash and grabbers, an observation made right away by some who responded to the tweet:
This picture is so conspicuously inaccurate you have to just marvel at our federal government humiliating itself just to avoid offending Democrats https://t.co/ifDxmRMW2R

Very subtle, but notice who the FBI shows in the picture when mentioning organized retail theft.
Sorry but it’s not gangs of suburban white housewives wearing designer clothes committing organized shoplifting. 🤷🏻♂️ https://t.co/fJcHbKjHnG

Indeed, it’s not.
It’s usually large groups of men or teenage boys and girls of differing races, and usually, they look rough around the edges even behind the masks they typically wear.

Organized retail theft rings come in many forms, but I’m fairly certain that the one the FBI posted in their woke bulletin on the topic isn’t one of them.
