        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stephanie Pratt&#8217;s criminal past is being rehashed after &#8220;The Hills: New Beginnings&#8221; star tweeted &#8220;shoot the looters&#8221; amid the George Floyd protests.</p><p>&#8220;Shoot the looters — using this tragedy as their excuse to rob and burn all of our towns down,&#8221; Pratt, 34, <a href="https://twitter.com/stephaniepratt/status/1267250712783679489">tweeted on Sunday</a>.</p><p>The phrase &#8220;when the looting stars, the shooting starts&#8221; was used by President Donald Trump on Twitter Friday in response to demonstrations that took place in Minneapolis. Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1266231100780744704">said the statement</a> &#8220;violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence.&#8221;</p><p>Pratt&#8217;s remark has not yet been flagged by the social media platform, but many users heavily criticized the reality star for the &#8220;hypocrisy&#8221; behind her comment.</p><p>In 2006, Pratt was arrested in Oahu, Hawaii, for <strong>shoplifting $1,300 worth of merchandise</strong> from a Neiman Marcus store. She was charged with second-degree theft and pleaded guilty, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.</p><p>One person&#8217;s response to Pratt&#8217;s tweet — which has over 15,000 likes — said, &#8220;Remember when you got arrested for stealing from neiman marcus, you f—king racist hypocrite.&#8221;</p><p>Another person added, &#8220;Why would you tweet something so stupid? Have you not learned anything from your commander and chief’s tweets? You’re insighting[sic] more violence.&#8221; That tweet got more than 8,000 likes.</p><p>People also slammed Pratt for vocalizing more compassion for businesses than George Floyd or other black people who have died as a result of police brutality.</p><p>&#8220;My heart breaks for all of these businesses around LA affected,&#8221; the &#8220;Hills&#8221; star <a href="https://twitter.com/stephaniepratt/status/1267261092109008896">tweeted along with a video</a> of news coverage. &#8220;First the quarantine &amp; now this.&#8221;</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/stephaniepratt/status/1267247535472603138">She added</a>, &#8220;Anyone else sobbing watching their town being burned down?&#8221;</p><p>One person wrote in response, &#8220;I think what you meant to say is &#8216;Anyone else sobbing about how cops are killing black people without punishment?&#8217; The bigger issue should always be loss of life, not buildings and things.&#8221;</p><p>Aside from Pratt&#8217;s own criminal history, people also pointed out that Pratt&#8217;s ex-boyfriend, Julien Chabbott, had his own confrontation with law enforcement.</p><p>In 2012, Chabbott was <strong>accused of running over a police officer&#8217;s foot</strong> with his Ferrari. Pratt was present when the incident occurred. The case <strong>was later dismissed</strong>, and Chabbott got just five days of community service.</p><p>A rep for Pratt did not immediately return our request for comment.</p>]]></content:encoded>
