Oakland will riot tonight.
Stores have been boarding up for last 3 days. Many store owners have left their stores & gone home already.
When the verdict came down, they rioted & caused lots of damage & were looting stores owned by their own ‘brothers’.
One black jewelry store owner said he had lost over $150,000 worth of merchandise & didn’t know if he could re-open.
Hard to drum up any sympathy.
I guess I’ll keep an eye out for news from Oakland tonight, while keeping up with the first night of high school football playoffs.
“Many store owners have left their stores...”
...except for the Koreans, who are locked and loaded. They don’t accept the Oakland credo that those who have must give up their stuff to those who have not.
