Robbers Target Photo Shoot00:01:50
The videos posted to social media are shocking.
Last Wednesday, a photo shoot at San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts apparently became the target of a daylight robbery attempt.
In the video, you can see the photographer struggling to hold on to his equipment while the robbers brandish what appears to be a gun.
Goes on for nearly a minute before the suspects take off empty-handed.
Then that same day, the apparent robbers were more successful, making off with what looks like a backpack or equipment bag and taking off in a silver car.
Police say both incidents are under investigation and are asking anyone who was involved in the incidents or witnesses to provide more details.
Neighbors, meanwhile, are not surprised.

Lower Crime With Fast Shipping00:09:47
Police say both incidents are under investigation and are asking anyone who was involved in the incidents or witnesses to provide more details.
Neighbors, meanwhile, are not surprised.
Mark lives in the area and says wedding and engagement photographers frequently use the beauty of the Palace of Fine Arts as a backdrop.
But he says he's also seen his fair share of crime, specifically auto burglaries.
I don't know where they're coming from, but the guys that I saw breaking the cars were in a nice Chrysler, black Chrysler, and they jumped out and were really quick about it.
It's been going on for a long time.
Neighborhood groups say they've complained about crime for years and say it comes in waves.
This recent round of robberies has them asking for more officers to patrol the area.
We need more police officers.
And I have a plan that we're going to try to do something strategically immediately if we can get to the PowerShell B.
And we have people right now in City Hall with invitations.
What?
They said they don't know where they're coming from.
They're coming from Oakland.
So you got, you got to.
They got to be coming from Oakland.
Yeah, of course.
It's San Francisco.
So it's like you live in California, that Democrat-ran state, the place that wants to abolish the police department, hire social workers.
Well, not abolish the fund.
They want to turn cops into social workers.
They think they can start talking to people and say, hey, you know that was wrong.
You don't supposed to do that.
Well, you broke in that house and you hit them over here with their back.
That's wrong.
You don't supposed to do that.
They think they can fund social programs that's going to like stop crime.
Now you stop crime?
Get on the ground.
Put your hands behind your back.
You move up and bash your damn head in.
Handcuff them, take them to jail.
Once you convict them, don't let them out.
Give them the maximum.
That's how you lower down the crime.
You send a message.
But this lady.
Because, you know why you treat criminals that way?
Because zebras don't change their stripes.
Cheaters don't change their spots.
Oh, that was nice.
That's cute.
It was poetic, one.
That was cute.
I like that.
It wasn't cute.
That was Socrates.
Like, what the hell you talking about?
But honestly, this woman, how much you want to bet this woman vote for Democrats every election?
She got the mayor on the phone.
Got some invitations to the mayor.
They said this has been going on for years.
Nowadays, you really think, what's wrong with you people?
What'd she say?
She got some, she knows people sitting on the phone.
She got the mail.
Yeah, I got City Hall on the phone.
I got the mayor on the phone.
We got some open invitations.
No, see, that's not how it works.
They invite you.
Yeah.
When you give your government all this power, they have to invite you.
They don't give a shit about y'all.
You know that, right?
She don't know that.
They could care less.
They don't even know where these niggas coming from.
Anybody with a rational mind will say Oakland.
Yeah, I have no.
I've been through Oakland.
Man.
I'm black, and that place made me scared of black people.
I'm sorry I said it.
That's what I feel, man.
Gotta be honest.
I remember I was driving.
I was a private investigator.
I was following this dude, and he went to Oakland.
Oh, please don't turn down that road.
The dude went down the heart of Oakland.
And man, that place is like a third world country, man.
Well, that's what Democrat policies.
You take any, all the big cities, it's for a reason.
There always been Democratic ran for years.
They have all these horrible policies when it comes to crime and the citizens of that area.
And it's like, and this has been going on for years.
And this lady's talking about, yeah, we're going to get this.
They, man, I don't know what to say.
This is like all over California.
Like people going to stores, robbing stores because the governor of California himself is raised to the cops don't even respond if it's under 2000.
You go now on, look, it's a cameraman out here getting robbed.
He's getting robbed.
He's got a gun.
Okay, that sounds like a robbery.
How much is the camera?
What?
About $700?
Nah, I ain't coming out that fast.
Just tell him, stop being a hero.
Give up the camera.
Come out there and take a report.
Try to get some footprints.
Yeah?
You get a description?
They got masks?
Man, you know what?
I'm not even coming out there.
Hey, man, said like the governor, they got all these policies that's like pro-criminal.
And it's like, what's up with the bail?
Like, they got this system like you can get let out on bail for like rape.
Murder.
And it's like, it's because.
What do they give you bail?
It's just low.
They say, you know, if your bail is too high, that that's racist, it affects, you know, disproportionately black people.
If you pull people of color, they can't afford that bail after they kill somebody.
Which that makes a lot of sense.
They don't.
A murderer shouldn't be able to afford his bail.
He shouldn't be let out on bail if there's sufficient evidence.
That's the major reason why you have bail because you don't want poor criminals to get out of jail.
I mean, there's nothing wrong with that, especially if it's for murder.
Like that one guy up in Waukesaw.
Is that how you pronounce it?
Michigan?
That ran that Christmas parade?
Yeah, yeah.
He still has an extensive.
Waukesaw.
Yeah, Waukesaw.
It's Native American, ain't it?
Yeah.
That's nice of them.
They took that land and kept the name.
White people are so good.
We're going to name this place.
What's it called?
Waukesaw.
You know what?
We're going to keep that name.
Yeah, in memory of all the Native Americans we slaughtered and took the land.
Waukesaw.
I shouldn't have laughed at that.
No, but you remember where that black guy?
He was ran over the place.
He ran all over those.
Which was a terrorist threat, but they said he was.
It was a terrorist.
You said it was a terrorist threat.
It was a terrorist.
I meant terrorist attack.
Yeah.
Yeah, but this is.
Domestic terrorism.
Yeah, this guy has an extensive criminal record.
He shouldn't be out.
Yeah.
And that's why this happens.
And it's like California's ass back.
That's why in San Francisco, you got a damn wedding photographer out there taking pictures of the bride and groom in this amazing era area.
Yeah.
You got dudes run up, robbing them at gunpoint.
From Oakland, more than likely.
Being tough on crime saves lives.
It keeps law-abiding citizens safe.
Yeah, there's nobody with a gun because you cannot have a concealed weapons permit.
But you don't really see stuff like this happening in Texas.
Yeah.
You can't get a concealed weapons there, but the criminals, they can carry all the guns they want.
But the thing is, this, man, I mean, when you're tough on crime, it's just, it's just common sense.
The reason why they're not tough on crime, because theoretically speaking, they pass a lot of laws now to give criminals back their rights to vote.
And they think that people that, you know, that commits crimes, they can get that, garner their vote because it's so, you know, soft on crime.
Yeah.
Hey, these, these rapers, these murderers.
They're people too, yeah.
They should be able to vote.
It's the American way.
Man, murder, second degree?
I think if you...
You should get 50 years for that.
If you're a felon, you get out on good behavior, 48 years.
First degree murder, automatic death penalty.
That means you plan plotter.
It's capital murder.
If you plan to kill somebody for financial gain or just to get out of a marriage, that's first degree if you're planning.
Get out of a marriage.
Yeah, to get out of a marriage.
That's motive.
People be actually killing people because they don't want to be staying married anymore.
You know, so first degree, death penalty.
Yeah.
Death.
Not life.
Death.
You die.
But this is why this.
But liberals.
No, they don't like giving people the death penalty.
You know what?
Life sentence.
No, man, you should kill them.
You should die.
I think you should strap them.
What's that thing you call what they say in the Bible?
Stone you to death?
That's inhumane.
I don't know why God did this shit.
But I think if you should be strapped to the stake, what's it a, what you call it, man?
A foreign squad?
Foreign squad.
But don't do it with a foreign squad.
Everybody gets grenades.
Right?
They say count of three.
One, two, three.
You better thought before.
Boom!
Hey, Kevin.
No, man.
Why don't you get serious on this?
I'm serious on that.
If you deliberately kill somebody, if you plan and plot, you should not get life.
You should not be getting hot deals.
You ain't there.
No, Shut up.
Let me paint a picture.
This is unfair.
How you can go in somebody and kill somebody, right?
Get life in prison.
You getting all them nice, good hot meals, shower, you got a color TV in there.
You getting sucked off.
You getting hand jobs.
You living life better in now than you do it outside.
Yeah, he's sucking each other off, giving hand jobs, and you got dudes, and then they're like women.
You don't miss a beat, man.
Hey, Kevin, I get all that.
You ain't got to worry about paying taxes.
You ain't got to worry about paying no bills.
Hey, man.
No, man.
If you deliberately kill somebody.
Hey, no, man, you die.
You die and you die.
Hey, you preaching to the choir over here.
I already know that.
I'm just saying, man, you shouldn't live, man.
I'm just saying, you're getting crazy.
I'm pro-life and all.
Hey, shut up.
What?
Let me do some talking.
I'm pro-life, but the reason why I'm for the death penalty, because we celebrate, we cherish the life that's lost.
You don't condemn, you don't kill somebody and you condemn them by giving them life in prison.
Chaos Among Mars And Venus00:01:20
What kind of shit is that?
What is that?
Does that make any sense to you?
It don't make no damn sense.
I don't make any sense.
You got cable TV?
You can look at fuck tapes.
I don't think you get porn in prison.
And you get porn.
Get drugs in prison.
You know, them dudes that are taking Seattle and Viagra and they're busting all kinds of nuts because they ain't got nothing else to do.
Work out, bust nuts, go eat dinner, come back, drink off again, go work out again, then go down there to the sister boy and get sucked off.
Hey, Kevin, that's a good life, man.
You ain't got a care in the world.
Hey, Kevin, I just don't get you people that live in California.
Like this woman, I mean.
Remember, they wrote a book, Boys Are From Mars and Girls Are From Venus?
They got that shit all wrong.
Conservatives are from Mars.
Liberals are from Venus.
Which is shit of title.
Y'all need your own damn planet.
Y'all can live amongst each other with all crimes.
