North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

Locke and David walked slowly to the Cafu Supermarket at No. 168 San Vicente Avenue. Well, I say slowly in a relative sense, but it was actually very fast, less than 5 minutes.

Because this alarm situation is not urgent, zero-dollar purchases have become very common in the United States, especially in California.

California recently passed a bill making robberies under $900 illegal.

California also has an even more bizarre bill that would make it illegal for supermarket clerks to prevent zero-dollar purchases. However, this bill is highly controversial and is still being debated in the state assembly.

At first, Locke, like most people, thought that the bill making robberies under $900 illegal was weird and ridiculous, but after Marianne explained the law to him and taught him some science, he felt that the bill was very good.

Many Chinese people are laughing at this matter, but in addition to the political correctness factor, this bill also has the government's policy purpose.

For example, subsidize the people at the bottom.

Yes, you read that right. In order to subsidize the people at the bottom, the government does not need to make substantial financial expenditures. For proper good governance, it is definitely a genius to come up with this.

Because the main groups for zero-dollar shopping are black people and other people of color, uh, and lower-class white people.

This group is all proletarians, a completely disadvantaged group whose life cannot go on anymore. Allowing them to legally grab things can alleviate social conflicts to some extent.

If you have a way to survive, you won't do other extreme things.

Moreover, these people are not afraid of the law at all. If they are imprisoned and live and eat for free, they will also consume the federal government's finances.

What’s more important is that most zero-dollar purchases occur in civilian neighborhoods and will not affect wealthy areas.

The Los Angeles Police Department has limited police resources. Rather than wasting its limited police resources on this swarm of locusts, it is better to better protect the safety of high-value-added enterprises, commercial districts, wealthy areas, and other investors who pay taxes to keep the United States functioning normally.

To give a more vivid metaphor, someone in the community finds that there are more stray dogs around the house, which is very unsafe, but they are afraid of animal protection organizations and cannot hunt these stray dogs.

Therefore, the community asked the animal protection organization for help, set up a rescue station outside the community, and regularly distributed food to stray dogs at designated points. The stray dogs knew that there was food there, so they would stop wandering around the community, and community security improved again.

That's how people are, their butt determines their head.

This bill is beneficial to Locke and his fellow lapds, so of course they support it. Otherwise, how long will it take to catch the gangsters who buy for zero dollars all day long?

For zero-yuan purchases, general small supermarkets, Chinese supermarkets and Korean supermarkets can only admit that they are unlucky, and calling the police is of no use.

However, for large supermarkets and big brand stores, they usually buy insurance, and the losses are ultimately paid by the insurance company. The compensation policy is the normal operation of the insurance company and will not affect the stock price and shareholder dividends.

Look, is it closed?

Politicians have gained reputation, the wealth of capitalists will not be affected, and the elite have gained the stability they want, and they will not lose anything in zero-dollar purchases.

It stands to reason that buying for zero yuan is no longer illegal, so why do merchants still call the police?

Because people's desires are endless, in the past, black people would grab all necessary daily necessities because they could no longer survive. This is why California set the value of goods at $900.

But as the bill came out, the old gangsters felt that they would lose money if they didn't get 900 dollars.

However, it is impossible for the old gangsters to rob things according to the value of the goods. More importantly, they cannot count, so in most cases, the value of the things they rob exceeds 900 knives.

Now Los Angeles has formed an industry chain for zero-dollar shopping, and there is a complete set of channels for selling the valuables stolen by the gangsters.

Some people even place orders online for Lao Hei to grab their favorite luxury goods, and finally buy them at a low price.

When they arrived at Cafu Supermarket, Locke and David originally thought they would go through the same formalities and record a transcript, but they didn't expect that the supermarket actually caught a robber.

When Locke saw the robber locked up in the surveillance room, he couldn't help but frown. He turned out to be a Chinese.

In the United States, people of mainland Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and even Taiwanese and Hong Kong people can be distinguished at a glance.

Of course, this is for Locke, and it is not so easy for others. In the eyes of foreigners, these people are even the same.

On the contrary, Singaporean Chinese are closer to mainlanders and difficult to distinguish.

This Chinese woman is a woman who looks young. She wears very Western-style makeup, heavy makeup, and long eyelashes. She exudes the smell of Chanel No. 5 perfume. Just think about it and you will know where the perfume comes from.

The skin is tanned, the clothes are revealing, there are large tattoos on the chest, and there is even a spade.

Seeing Locke and David coming in, the woman looked indifferent, but she still looked at Locke a few more times, maybe she thought he was handsome.

The security guard of the supermarket directly called up the surveillance camera and showed it to Locke and David. This time, there were four robbers involved in the zero-yuan purchase.

Three black people, two men and one woman, plus the Chinese woman, four people.

Three black men escaped from supermarket security, but the Chinese woman was caught because she was running too slowly.

The supermarket manager also produced a list of the items they robbed. The total value of the items was about $8500, which exceeded the exemption limit.

The evidence is overwhelming and there is nothing more to say.

After a brief inquiry, Locke learned the identity of the Chinese-American female robber. Her name was Michelle Chen. She was not a Chinese-American, but a Chinese national, which surprised him.

Locke and David put handcuffs on the suspect, put him in a police car, and prepared to take him back to the Wilshire Police Station for procedures.

After figuring out the identities of the other three robbers, LAPD will issue a wanted warrant for the three escaped black men.

Although it is not known whether he will be sentenced to jail in the end, but it will definitely be recorded on his credit record. Of course, these people will not care.

When Locke was driving, his eyes would glance at the woman in the back seat from time to time. Many Chinese people in the United States are very poor, but not many dare to participate in zero-dollar purchases. After all, China does not have a culture of getting something for nothing.

It is even rarer to have Chinese nationality in the United States. Young Chinese people who can come to the United States are not poor in family finances. Could it be that they came here through wire transfer?

Locke was not a holy mother. Although the other party's Chinese nationality made him pay more attention, he had no intention of doing anything.

They all hang out with black people, buy things for zero yuan, and have pinholes on their arms. Such Chinese people don't deserve his too much attention.

After handing the robber over to the police station, Locke and David continued patrolling.

David still couldn't accept the bill that exempted black people from zero-dollar purchases, and said angrily: "Los Angeles used to be like this, or it was too tolerant to them, so Los Angeles turned into this shit, fuck..."

Locke comforted him: "Anyway, you will retire after two more years of work. Out of sight, out of mind..."

David sighed: "This world is bullshit, LGBT, and messy. Fortunately, Catherine has never let me worry about it. Forget it, let's not talk about it, find a coffee shop, and I will buy you coffee..."
