A local clothing store is asking for the community’s help in identifying a woman caught on camera stealing plants.
On Wednesday, El Potrillo Western Wear posted screenshots of videos on Instagram showing a white woman with blonde hair stealing Talavera Pots “and many other things” from the store’s patio once they closed.
“She came in with some gardening pruners on her back pocket… I’m assuming she’s a resident around the neighborhood?” the shop, located at 612 N. Milpas Street, stated.
The store hopes someone in the community will recognize the woman and will come forward with information.
El Potrillo Western Wear can be reached on Instagram, by phone at (805) 568-1943, or email at Elpotrilloww@aol.com.
What a low life. She will make a good gardener at the prison farm. But don’t eat what she grows!
a good gardener in the prison farm? what weird reality do you live in where people go to prison for petty theft? also what prisons have farms? lol….
LAU- Well the local Penitentiary to start with. Haven’t heard of the “Country Club” at Lompoc pen?
I was lucky enough to rescue a ranch pup that I had for 17 years.
Local WHITE woman, lol. This country cracks me up. Yeah poster, we have eyes.
Also, post the video?
Why just screenshots?
The Instagram comments on this are pretty hilarious. A few people called her a “Karen” and a lady named Karen lost her mind in the comments and started insulting everyone. Haha, people are funny.
thats because “Karen” is a derogatory term for a specific race and gender. yall like to cry when it’s another race/ethnicity, but if it’s a white person, it’s ok to call her that? How would that be any different from calling a black woman a slanderous and derogatory term? It’s not. Double standard folks, if it’s not ok to call names to one ethnicity, its’ not ok to call others as well. a bit confusing that most of you can’t grasp that concept.
Eh….. there are plenty of non-white Karens out there. Just because most entitled, whiney, racist women are white doesn’t mean all Karen’s are white. “Karen” is nothing like the racist slurs for non-whites. I don’t see a double standard there. Calling out a white woman being rude and racist is not the same as calling a minority a racist slur. It’s about their bad behavior, not their skin color.
maybe in your views, Sac, but the rest of the world uses “Karen” no different than others using the “N” word. It’s derogatory. Sorry, but if its not ok for one group, its not ok for any group to use derogatory terms like that.
Comparing Karen to the N word is disgusting. Unbelievable, man.
Further, insulting racists should never be considered the same as using a racist slur to describe someone solely for their skin color, regardless of their behavior, words, or conduct.
If the N word is the same to you as “Karen,” why don’t you say the N word? See? It’s because it’s not at all the same. No double standard.
Not sure where we got to “insulting racists?”
What does this have to do with the article
Maybe read the comments? They’re pretty clear.
The uproar from older white women over an internet slang pejorative is comical. Those upset are completely ignoring the reason why this term became popular. White women targeting minorities because they think they’re up to no good when these minorities are simply minding their business. The anger should be at the inherent racism of these “Karens” and not the harmless term used to describe them.

first off, don’t comment if you’re going to be weak and hide your handle. Second, idgaf how you spin it. It’s derogatory and no different than calling another race a similar term. You can put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig.
“Anon”, so you say the anger should be at the inherent racism of these “Karens” and not the “harmless” term used to describe them. Right. So with your policy/views/perception. All slanderous racist terms are ok if you aren’t angry and white. Lol ok….
you people just want to make up rules as you trudge along. Calling a white woman a Karen is as racist as calling my native american adopted son, Tonto. It’s BS and rude AF
KNein – I don’t see any difference using ‘ananomus’ vs. some silly make up name. I see them as both as just as ‘weak’.
One epithet is used due to a person’s actions. One epithet is used due to a person’s ancestry. That’s the difference.

The small video they posted on Instagram can’t be zoomed so it’s useless. They need to post the video on youtube.
By the way there is a Space X launch at 6:13 from VSFB.
…they’re now saying “Launch time: 7:44 p.m. PST (10:44 p.m. EST / 0344 UTC)”
Not Karin about it!
