There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

S.Africa: Cops sound alarm over "magic box"
[We can’t grow food or run a country, but we sure know how to steal. Jan]
Police have warned city shopowners of criminals armed with a “magic box” they use for shoplifting.
A group of criminals is targeting clothing stores and using the device to bypass security sensors at exits.
Table Bay Harbour police’s crime prevention unit head, Captain Keith Blake, said the box blocked contact between the stolen item’s security disk or tag and the security alarm sensors at the door.
Caledon Square police station has introduced a shoplifting unit to deal with the crime.
Cape Town police spokesperson Captain Andre Traut and Blake said hundreds of people had been arrested in the City Bowl, Sea Point and the V&A Waterfront over the holidays.
They said two or three shoplifters would stand talking in front of a shelf or rail of clothes. One would carry a bag or box, wrapped to look like a gift, into which a garment could be slipped, along with its tag.
The shoplifters would then walk past the shop’s security sensors with no alarm being sounded, thanks to the special lining of the bag or box.
