RIP Michael K Williams (1967 - 2021)
"A Fine Man": A Michael K Williams Tribute: www.vice.com/en/article/3aqmp...
3 years already, damn.
I mean it would be less sad if he didn't die of an overdose like so many people it's not even sad It's just disappointing that somebody is such a mess they can't control themselves... Probably cuz he's from the hood and all the hood does is perpetuate the same nonsense and decision making that ended up taking his life... But vice can't cover anything like that because you're not allowed to tell black people what to do... Even Obama couldn't get anybody in line because they didn't think he was black enough... Just like Tim pool mentioned about vice news not thinking he was ethnic enough even though he's part Asian lol
Just because other people steal doesn't make it right. She says since other people do it she has to do it. It also sounds like and her husband are pure lazy to get a job. Lazy and makes excuses. Also if New York is too expensive, then live somewhere more affordable like the Southern states.
I need a proper 45 minute Vice documentary about this
They have it !
@@lv5949where?
TBH i think the buyer is paying way too much at 50% of sticker
She selling it for double sometimes triple the price she pays. Ngl they missing out selling the hangers too 😂
Facts
1:45 “other people do it.”
Other people also work!!!
😂😂😂
What suckers right???
Facts
Work would require them to get off welfare though.
they are too lazy to work. Clearly. I would love to tell them straight to their faces of how they are lazy and to get off their butts to go work.
"There are no more stores in our neighborhoods." Yeah, wonder why
Bodegas will be all that's left and .99 cent stores. 😂😂
Cause and effect is a MF.
Too expensive for basic stores bc white ppl Bd transplants have moved in, and not enough space for big box stores. That's why
that house gettin raided after this fo sho
10 seconds in…..” THAT MALL HAVE TOO MANY BLACK PEOPLE“ well damn tell me more 🍿💀💯💯
she basically says it's good for her because the focus is on the black people because they are more suspicious in terms of shoplifting. she's simply being strategic and realistic
@@constantlylearnandgrow3487 smart move but hilarious
You guys are voting for trump ur lucky we ain't smacking you
Right!! I'm like tell me how u really feel.
She's a lil crazy, too. Telling the world how much cash she keeps in her apartment. Duh.
So they can get robbed?
In California, this would be considered a misdemeanor as long as the merchandise is valued at $950 or less per shoplift...
You spelled ‘Commifornia’ wrong
It won't even matter if its a felony they'll be out in 1 or 2 days in california lmfao
Damn truly keeping the stereotypes alive with this one
Some stereotypes exist because they're true to a point.
It’s not black people
So are you crying online instead of being productive
@@noyes.I don’t think they are crying online.
@@noyes. The only one crying here its you
She said it all, they watch black people not white or spanish!
No secret if ur in Cali or New York just walk in take what u want
every state has minimum thresholds for a criminal charge. don't act like they legalized theft. what a moron.
My wife is from Zilina Slovakia. From a village…. Very poor. She would never stoop to this level.
@@blakiepoop5568 yeah that's because your wife is a good civilized person
Nah she is on only fans while you at work
Call bull! All cap. Your ppl been doing it to eachother for generations. Why most of yall ended up in america
It not that poor
@@johnnoyobbo8618 k.
I work in retail, as a low level employee, for a multimillion dollar corporation. Most of the employees don't care if you steal and generally, employees are NOT allowed to confront shoplifters, follow them, or accuse them of anything. It's too much of a liability for the corporation. They would rather lose a couple hundred in merchandise, than a couple thousand in a lawsuit.
My main piece of advice to shoplifters would be; don't hit the same store more than once or twice because we DO notice and at a certain point, if we DON'T report you, it makes US look suspicious. At the end of the day it's every man for himself.
We had one shoplifter at my store, who came in every day, at the exact same time, wearing the exact same clothes. DON'T DO THIS. After a couple days I had to report her because she was being super obvious. If it was only once or twice, I would've let it slide.
This who trump talking about, u as well
@@nkt-cq9pl you should be ashamed of yourself
Back when i was a teenager i was being stupid and stealing a 12 pack of beer from a store. An employee walked into the isle as i shoved it in my backpack. Walked to me told me to stop being stupir and if they see me agian they will have to report me.
@@meridian2009 Trump is trash, how many times has he gone through bankruptcy for his crappy businesses? he's the real crook.
shame on you.
This is how bad stereotypes are born.
Disgusting
When they know that they should get a job, but they choose not to..
Exactly! They probably have an EBT card as well🤬
Nothing but the finest on welfare 😂.
"It's like a job", Hey, how about getting a job?
If Politicians Did their Job & Made Human Breeding Illegal Globally for Starters
This is disgusting.
These people have zero morals
Damn straight and make $$ for it to
they need to be deported
ASAP
Ah chill 💀💯
@@BIGSuperstar-or4vxAnd the blacks deported to Africa
We have been telling you for years through comedy that while you're watching us the "others" are walking out with your stuff. Smh she confirms what we know
But than they judge black ppl. 😂😂😂.
Exactly
I work adjacent to the retail industry. At least in my area, part if the Philadelphia market but not the city, it’s mostly black women and white men who shoplift. The black women typically steal out of desperation and poverty. The white men are typically either drug addicts or they’re part of a shoplifting network stealing high ticket items. It really depends on the area but it’s fair to say it’s not just black people. However, black people tend to stand out because when they get caught they are more likely to make a scene, which then perpetuates the stereotype.
@@cathyeckstein699 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This disgusts me as we live in downtown Denver and the Walgreens here is gutted.
Blame all the drug addicts.
Thank Polis and the likes that voted for him.
This is how society deteriorates.
No that's how people hustle and get they bag you square
It’s really a way of life for some people. I know some boosters indirectly and it’s literally all they do.
ok well allow me to be the one to acknowledge the ' too many black ppl ' comment.... ok yall can continue
Just cause the tag says 20 don’t mean it’s 20. A lot of those type of clothes have discount. So that lady buying the clothes basically buying the clothes regular price lol
They're probably "addicted" to the "rush" of boosting more than the money.
how do they convince them to let them film
I always wondered how Vice convinces people.
Vanity, playing against their ego by saying stuff like "Come on, people would be fascinated"
they probably pay some of them
Money
Clout is helluva drug😕
They don't call em bandits for nothing...
Rest in peace, Michael K Williams (the narrator). These people are despicable
And you know who ends up paying for the theft loss of the company?
The honest customers who pay their hard earned money.
Maybe just don´t buy clothes from a multibillion dollar company with sweatshops in china.
@@danilogondim9300that’s literally all the clothes that sell for 35 or 40 made in America clothes can be upwards of 85 for a shirt
Who cares !
I hate shoplifters, but the reality is that most of the product stolen is insured.
As soon as they said mall I instantly thought green acres lol
It’s about time something was done about this . We need to stop voting for useless politicians.
Don't complain about lack of access to groceries and retail in certain neighborhoods, when not understanding how commercial insurance works
Worst kind of people, shame on them for saying “this is like a job” why don’t you get a real job and contribute to society. Thanks to people like this stores everywhere are closing causing people to lose their jobs. Retail theft should be treated with consequences of attack to our economy here in the u.s I particularly live in San Francisco and more empty lots keep appearing
0:04 DAAAAAAMN!!!! Damn near spat out my juice!!!! Was NOT expecting that line.😂 They shop lift to lift their shops...😂
Omar narrating this, is all the more fitting, pun intended. R.i.p MKW ✊🏿
It shocks me how people choose to live paycheck to paycheck to paycheck/ in squalor in NY over living literally anywhere else in the country
That’s green acres mall in valley stream NY. I literally live like 2 minutes away 😂 this is crazy , that mall went downhill so they don’t care if these lowlifes steal from them
It’s like a job…. Ok being a thief. Well it’s expensive to live here. That’s their excuse to be a low life.
After a hard day of work😂😂
Dam one shopping trip is like rent well over here in AZ it is lol
That’s wild
“The Secret of Shoplifting”
Don’t get caught…
That women could just buy clothing legitimately for cheaper and resell wtf ?😮
Ain't nothing left to tell
It’s worth it for those two if they can make 1.6k in one or two days but selling that stuff is way more work. Doubling your investment if you have to sell every piece one by one is just like a normal job.
Thinking the buyer has a store front in Columbia run by others or just sells in bulk to many existing stores. Who knows?! She might run the whole op herself, keeping her and her puppy fit.
@@OkellaWood if she has to export those clothes that’s even worse. Is she also going to take it with her on a plane or ship it just to maybe make 5$ into 10$ on a piece?
As a Hispanic, we dont claim any of these scumbags. From the thief, to the buyer.
imagine stealing lol.
“This is like a job”
The fact that shoplifting is in a documentary and the law enforcement is not concerned, there is no hope for small businesses to grow.
Lol greenacres mall tho 😂
THIS IS WONDERFUL!! 🤩🤩🤩
This is like a Job.💯
Rent to high in NY very true well Fucking move or live in a tent karma will get u nobody's exempt
As a half latino I am ashamed, I kno my peoples are better than this. At the very least act humble
Who needs togo shopping , just buy it online 😂
All that garbage not one name brand
cant get this amount of stuff as easily with name brands
they made $1.6k in a few hours tho who cares
Exactly and they she probably didn't even make $1600😂
Get a job and you won't be broke 😂
I working in a store and I stealing items daily
This is why the jobs report is up😂
The Expenditures of War & Destruction & People Bicker About Shoplifters
Ah yea, because it’s the fundamental decay of society which is a peripheral effect of the former…everything is tied together in some way…
Just get a job
Hmmm, these people good they get through.
The buyer looking kinda thick 😏
Said the same thing 😂
It’s like a job 😂 no way she said that
The 50% off sticker will turn into out of business
These are the people responsible for stealing every tester from the fragrance area at the mall... Legit waste of space and breath
Everything should be free. Shouldn’t even have to pay for it
Thank you comment section. You are mostly Decent human beings. Not sure if vice was trying to make the shoplifters sympathetic characters or what?
Where can I buy from her to support her small business
Gotta love the game
Virtue is a luxury.
Why do you gotta love the game?
Is that Piyo under the mask
Sweet Aldi I shop there
Just straight laziness and ignorance.
I am a shoplifter.
These are people who have no interest in being productive.
"This is like a job," she said. Go get yourself a real job since you say you're poor, there's plenty out there!
She’s making more than you right now, why would she?
@@noyes.because it’s not sustainable and undignified
@@QueequegCS
Neither is a job
There's no secret! 😂
Well they need to have better paying jobs and more employment options.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
We noticed we just don’t care enough anymore lol
puerto ricans
Well well well... I know who im voting for
Always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾
I do not care about people stealing from corporations.
Apparently you are unlearned as to the ‘trickle down effect’ and basic Econ101-the hard working general public is the one who gets phucked up the a$$ with the loss via increased price marks-do you really think major corps are gonna take the hit???
Damn $1600 pure profit just like that!
OMAR What?
Damm whoever made this video should be ashamed of themselves for glorifying shoplifters, why don’t you go get a real job! And not mess everything up for the rest of us
Illegals 😢
Orale
We going to prison with this one ❗️🔥
Other races strive on us black ppl being discriminated against!!!!
I love this!
you don't have to say it! we can see your skin colour
Why does TH-cam telling me F off to a thief who loves robbing offensive. F U.
You love to steal from people??
@@RealRyanG0sling you're sleeping with the maggots again mate get a grip...a tight one!
Ah yes, upstanding american citizens
well well well
To be a good or perfect shoplifter u must posess good level of IQ.
