Between 30 to 50 people swarmed the Nordstrom at the Westfield Topanga Mall in Woodland Hills, making off with thousands of dollars worth of luxury handbags and high-end clothing, an LAPD spokesman told NBC News.

        I can’t muster up sympathy for security guards who work at an obscenely wealthy mall.

        Edit: Let me clarify, these men are paid to use violence to protect the interests of capital.

          When have you ever seen a mall security guard use violence?

          When have you ever seen a mall security guard that isn’t overweight or retirement age? Or both?

            They carry live weapons in some cities, but more often they carry pepper spray and tasers. They also work with the police to incarcerate people who threaten the profitability of the stores on the property. State violence is still violence, the most cowardly kind.

        The biggest form of theft is wage theft, and bear spray is a helluva lot better than some alternative methods.
