Democrat convention organizers claim $500K of lost electronics

Democrat convention organizers claim $500K of lost electronics. “Organizers of the Charlotte, N.C., convention have filed a police report for lost and stolen electronics, some of which they appear to have valued at as much as 62 times the listed market prices. A reportedly stolen 13-inch MacBook Pro laptop? $75,537. The price listed on the Apple website is $1,199. A lost iPhone? $30,503. A lost Blackberry? $54,250.” Leopards, spots, yada yada yada.

    • I think the same thing as the anti-Constitutional propaganda escalates with repeated and increasing attacks on the first, second, and fourth amendments, but so far nothing from the masses.... it's a case of people seeing and hearing only what they want to.

      • They'll start seeing shit when their favorite rights are tromped on by this government, but if they don't support the 1st, 2nd, 4th, or 10th then there probably won't be anyone around to help them address that particular issue up the chain of command to whoever the dictator du jour is.

  • I lost my iPhone. Where do I go to get my $30K? (Can I use it again after they pay out? It's really just under my sofa cushion!)

    • Wait- you do know that the couch cushion has been farted into countless times... I'm afraid you'll need a hazmat team to retrieve the phone.

      • That would be on my husband's side. My side has NEVER been farted in. Ever. But if it had, it would smell like roses!

  • What? I mean what else should we expect? We're talking about Democrats here, where thievery and fraud are their way of doing business. Their convention was one giant lie fest, so we should take this latest bit of fraud for granted.

    • No The IRS will not do a thing, BUT ... if it was the Republican convention they would be all over it!
