"So, they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money... They are put in a position where they feel like they need to shoplift some bread or go hungry that night,"
The New York Congresswoman sat down in a video from 2020 and described why she thought people loot. 'So, they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money... They are put in a position where they feel like they need to shoplift some bread or go hungry that night,' said Ocasio-Cortez.
But she has since been ridiculed online after a mob of dozens of looters targeted stores such as Footlocker, Apple and Lululemon in the City of Brotherly Love on Tuesday night - with one social media user writing 'This did not age well'.
Thieves also
ransacked at least 18 liquor stores overnight, which led to all of
Philadelphia's Fine Wine and Good Spirits locations closing their doors
on Wednesday.
