Crime in some liberal cities has become so bad that thefts are leading retail chains to close businesses and warn about the consequences of organized retail thefts. But you know crime is particularly bad when a business closes an otherwise profitable location out of concerns for safety.

In-N-Out is closing its only location in Oakland, a location the company says has still been profitable. “This location remains a busy and profitable one for the company, but our top priority must be the safety and wellbeing of our Customers and Associates — we cannot ask them to visit or work in an unsafe environment,” the company’s chief operating officer said. “Our Customers and Associates are regularly victimized by car break-ins, property damage, theft, and armed robberies.”
