yeah, yeah, it was the owners’ fault for not having enough security. They moan that businesses move away from their communities, or won’t come to their communities, but no one seems to want to take responsibility for their own feral youts and the destruction they wreak.
You said it well. That’s the point I was trying to make, and you said it better than I did. The black community in that area bemoaned the lack of security at that mall, and charged that the owners of the mall let it go downhill. The black community never addressed the fact that their own youth were the ones who drove away decent people, and caused businesses to fail there.
The black community lamented the lack of security there, but never addressed why such high security was needed in the first place.
