Hodgetwins dissect the Philadelphia Wawa looting incident, debating whether it reflects unique Black community behavior or a broader trend among Latino and Asian youth. They contrast police responses to this event with post-9/11 Muslim profiling and recount personal anecdotes of racial bias in retail theft enforcement. While describing an incident where 500 teens attacked officers without arrest, the discussion pivots to accusations of government failure regarding illegal immigrants, culminating in a controversial assertion that Black individuals must cease "animalistic" conduct to avoid mistreatment.

White Supremacist Gets Out of Control00:06:28
Everybody check out the niggas.
Was that the security guard walking out?
What?
Are y'all going to make my sandwich or you going to keep recording?
I wouldn't make you a damn sandwich either.
I don't know if you would the rest of them niggas.
I'm just going to make you a sandwich and watch you walk out.
Hey, man, this white supremacist is getting out of control.
White supremacist strikes again.
Hey, there's like this, what should I call this?
It's like...
It's a flash mob.
Yeah, it's a flash mob, but that's like a subculture within the black community.
You think it's just in the black community, huh?
Sounds kind of racist.
I mean, I'm sure there's some videos somewhere where some white kids are doing something, but...
I'm sure this had some Asian kids in there somewhere.
I mean, I'm just saying this happens all every day.
In black neighborhoods, huh?
Yeah, I don't see this happening.
I don't see why.
So what you're trying to say, you noticing a trend.
Yeah.
I mean, you don't see white kids doing this.
You don't see Asian kids.
You see some Latino kids doing it.
But it's like... Inner cities.
Most of what the people of their complexions are a little bit darker than Caucasian.
Yeah, let me say this.
Why?
Okay, when like cops, how they treat.
Okay, y'all say cops don't treat black people right.
Yeah, you wonder, you know why, don't you?
I mean, do you think they just, they just hate black people or when they run into black people, it's shit, it just gets crazy.
Like what happened on 9-11 when they flew those planes in the bills, I'm pretty sure Muslims was looked at differently.
It's not.
Oh, yeah.
You see what I'm saying?
Yeah, they're treated differently, yeah.
They're treated differently because it's just human nature.
Yeah.
So when a black, so when a cop comes into contact with black people, like I'll give you a point.
It depends on what the black person looks like, too.
If he's in a suit and he's driving a horse, it's going to treat him different.
But if he see a, if he come up on a dude, he's got, he's driving a vehicle that's lowered and he's, his pants is around his knees and he's got a do-rag on.
He smells like weed.
He's totally going to, he's going to treat that person differently.
Yeah, like that's a stereotype that black people is going to rob you.
Like whenever I try to get an acting role in Hollywood, they was always have me playing like some nigga and I'm robbing people.
I was a thug.
Yeah.
That's because that's how society sees black people for the most part.
Like when I used to catch shoplifters, Ross Dress for Less, right?
Man, you had to go there again, huh?
You loved that job, didn't you?
No, we used to work in Ross Dress for Less.
We was in a heavily Hispanic area.
Right?
It was like 85%.
It was like Orange County.
Yeah, all you see is white and Latino.
Right?
And I shit you not.
I'm not making this up.
Soon as a nigga would walk in the store, he would always steal something.
I would only see one a day.
You could totally tell he wasn't from Orange County.
You could totally tell he was from LA.
Like, I mean, I don't, I mean, it's just, we are a product of our environment.
Yeah.
That job made me racist.
Soon as I see a black person, oh, I got me a nigga.
And that job made me racist as hell because over several years at that job.
Yeah, that's who I when it came to shoplifting I was in contact with either somebody that was a legal immigrant speaking English or it was a black dude and you know what what I hated about it that about that job because we would go from store to store sometimes I was being a Hispanic or sometimes and I hated going to the white areas because I could never catch anybody I was like I know these white people are stealing they just smarter than me.
No, you trust you trust them white people.
I was catching all kinds of white people those little white girls in jewelry I was getting them every day.
Oh, I caught on that too them little white girls.
They'd be out there.
The little white girls would be like just like putting on jewelry like oh, I like this, but didn't it be like I don't like it, but it's still in the hand.
They act like they put it on the shelf and it go right in a fucking pocket.
Yeah, white people, when it comes to stealing, they're just much more professional.
Black people like to do smashing grabs.
Yeah, it was totally unprofessional.
Black people come to show you like this, is that a camera?
Camera right there, right there, white people.
It was cool, but they were like this.
I've been looking at something like coffee, black people.
They just grab a bunch of Mercenites, walk up to us the front of the store.
You see a car, pull up, just run off the damn stove and then they peel off.
What we try to say is niggas when it comes to shoplifting.
It's so obvious.
No, it's just, it's just man, it's just.
I think it's.
It's frustrating because you see, every time I happen, when you see stuff like this, it's always black kids like this has been an ongoing problem in Philadelphia and in the inner cities all over the country.
Here's another.
Yeah, here's another video.
This is like five years ago.
We got this video from publicly available social media posts.
It shows the crowd of about 500.
Police say most were 12 to 17 years old.
Officers tried to disperse the crowd and that's when the teens began hopping on cars and throwing those glass bottles at officers.
In some images you can see them really daring officers to escalate the situation.
Police instead decided to wait things out and contain the crowd, not making any arrests.
So that's why this is a problem in inner city.
Y'all don't do nothing yeah, and over time it's gonna act, it's gonna progress.
It's gonna get worse and worse because our police officers in our cities and our city officials they're not doing nothing about it.
This has been an ongoing problem for over a decade, but nobody's doing anything and it's just gonna continue to fester and get worse.
Teens Dare Officers to Escalate00:01:17
Yeah, I mean, you don't do that.
I remember I was a shoplifters in yeah, in California.
I would keep catching this one guy.
He didn't speak no English, he was obviously Mexican right, and I would catch him.
This dude was fill up duffel bags full of clothes.
I call the cops.
The cops would come and take him away.
Yeah, two weeks later, this dude's walking right back up in the store again yeah, wearing all the stuff.
That's obvious, obviously from the store.
I arrest him again this time.
I chase him and now I catch him.
I I bring him back in, the same cop comes.
I'm like, didn't I just arrest this dude two weeks ago and you wrote him up for burglary?
Why is he still coming to my store?
He said, well, just between me and you, don't tell nobody, but after I process this report, I'm going to drive down the street and I'm going to drop him off.
I was like, why is that?
He's like, well, my hands are tied.
We can't do nothing.
I was like, why?
He's illegal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it's all because of our politicians, all because of our government.
They're not willing to enforce our country's laws.
Yeah, and one more thing.
Black people, if y'all want to stop being mistreated or just being seen a certain way, stop acting like y'all, I hate to say it, animals.
