The same technologies that for years have brought together the mostly benign and goofy "flash mobs," in which groups suddenly break into dance at a mall or stumble around like zombies at train stations, is being used to plan and execute bold robberies.
Called “flash robs,” these crimes are being organized by young teenagers through various social media outlets, most notably Twitter. Police say the suspects select a time and place and enter the store in droves taking what they want and leaving before security or police can catch them.
Some of the most brazen robberies take place in the light of day and on busy streets despite all the security cameras and the watchful eyes of workers.
Jewelry stores, those with expensive electronics, and high end apparel stores seem to be the main targets.

Protesters here usually get dispersed or arrested the moment they start throwing things. Innocent people don't get hurt.

Did anyone bother to tell the news site that this is only the expected outcome from the "reporting" they have engaged in for the past ten years?

When the stores the rich politicians shop at are closing because of this, maybe the left elites will wake up.

Why bother with starting a riot to cover your looting? Now organized flash mobs are just doing hit and run looting across the country.
