    WATCH: Shoplifters Come To Hilarious Realization That Stealing Is Now a Felony In California

    Some alleged shoplifters in California were surprised to learn that shoplifting is now classified as a felony due to new laws.

    Well, to be fair, one of them seemingly knew they were facing more dire repercussions and went about lifting a total of around $1,000 from an Ulta Beauty store and a Kohl’s anyway.

    The other had no clue. She thought stealing was just a misdemeanor. She got slapped with reality in the back of a police car when her accomplice informed her of the bad news.

    The following conversation is borderline Shakespearean in its poetic tone.

    “It’s a felony?” one of the women asks the other as they sit cuffed in the back of the vehicle.

    “B***h new laws,” her associate replies. “Stealing is a felony and this Orange County b***h. They don’t play.”

    Shoplifters Will Be Paying For Their Crimes

    The Seal Beach Police Department put together a hilarious video of their surveillance of the two subjects, showing them in the stores appearing to grab items, place them in a bag, and walk out without paying.

    The video has “These Boots Are Made For Walkin’” playing for most of the clip. Except for the part where the two alleged criminals discuss their current problem.

    The video went viral.

    Those boots the one woman is wearing are something. It looks like her feet are being attacked by two vicious Malamutes.

    Honestly, a Republican running in California would be wise to use the phrase “B***h new laws” as their campaign slogan going forward.

    Thanks To Proposition 36

    What this particular criminal – allegedly – knows that the other does not is that Proposition 36 passed in California this past election. It went into effect less than a week ago.

    Proposition 36 – aka the Homelessness, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act – reforms Proposition 47, a decades-old law that was supposed to usher in criminal justice reform but instead encouraged the escalation of crime. 

    The voters voiced a very vocal condemnation of soft-on-crime policies in California.

    “It undoes some of the changes voters made with a 2014 ballot measure that turned certain nonviolent felonies into misdemeanors, effectively shortening prison sentences and leading to a spike in retail theft and crime,” police reminded would-be criminals along with the above video.

    “Here in Seal Beach we never believed in the cite and release program, but this new proposition only strengthens our commitment to combatting Organized Retail Theft. Remember folks, don’t steal in Seal.”

    If you do, you might just end up in your own viral video.
