In-N-Out Burger will close its first location in its 75-year history due to a wave of car break-ins and robberies at its only restaurant in Oakland, California.

In-N-Out Burger says it will close its first location in its 75-year history due to a wave of car break-ins, property damage, theft and robberies affecting customers and employees alike at its only restaurant in Oakland, California.

The fast-food burger joint in a busy corridor near Oakland International Airport will close on March 24 because even though the company has taken “repeated steps to create safer conditions our Customers and Associates are regularly victimized,” Denny Warnick, In-N-Out’s chief operating officer, said in a statement Wednesday.

      I don’t think anyone here is under the illusion that fixing policing in this country, let alone Oakland, is a simple task.

      Maybe it’s a cultural issue.

      If the people living in oakland want to behave like animals, then they can live like animals.

        “If” is doing so much heavy lifting in that sentence you can probably leave the rest of the words out. Nobody wants to live that way.

          Then they have to pay up.

          Why should you get more before others who have less if you can’t afford it?

          Answer: Entitlement.

            Who has to pay what? What are you even talking about? You said fuck them if they want to live that way and I said no one wants to live that way. So… What?
