they’re all too stupid and arrogant

With emphasis on arrogant. Having grown up in NYC I know these people and I hope they get a touch of the evil they created. I won't be joining prayer circles when it comes their way.

Cheapskates using OSB. They deserve what they get.

I see the same thing in NYC as well. Boarded up storefronts in some areas. Half empty office buildings as companies en masse are switching many employees to remote work fulltime or moving their operation out of NYC completely.

Usually the Christmas season is a great time to be walking around NYC. I was there last Wednesday and it's not the same. The Christmas spirit is just not there. People are keeping their heads down and hurrying to their destinations. A lot of people are still wearing those infernal face masks and it makes them look like space aliens or absent-minded surgeons.

City government is not making it very pleasant to be in NYC. Now they are looking to put their jackboot to whoever decides to stick it out.

“Looters will be shot”

Ask Kyle how that works. In other words, they all know it’s meaningless.

The damaged stores should stop collecting and remitting sales taxes - and dare the city to do anything about it. They are not getting the services their customers are paying for.

Unfortunately, JonPreston, most of them have the financial means to insulate themselves.

When the covid crap and last years riots kicked into high gear a guy down the street from my brother sold his house in one day. Sight unseen, not walk through. Nothing. House went for over $1million. Buyer paid cash. That was happening all over Long Island, SW Connecticut, the North Jersey suburbs and Westchester County and north.

From what I’ve been told, they’re ruining Ulster and Sullivan County. These folks move in, snatch up everything, raise taxes through the roof and force everyone out. Same thing they’re doing in Boise, Atlanta and surrounding area, Boazman, Kalispell and lots of other places around the country.

They’re gross humans.

As if this is a new thing.

We were vacationing in SF in the 80s and had parked near Frederick’s of Hollywood. It was a short drive back to the hotel where we’d walked in and turned on the tv to see we’d just missed being mobbed by dozens of gays who’d rushed Frederick’s and stole everything including the fixtures.

How looting turned the most upscale part of San Francisco into a ghost town>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

When you’re handed Lemons....make lemonade!

That whole neighborhood needs a 2nd amendment boost!

All the effected busiesses simply need to convert to being gun shops with several indoor shooting ranges:

“How to Build an Indoor Shooting Range”

The bext time the BLM and ANTIFA organized gangs come looting they will be physically stopped, and if they draw weapons, they will be shot down.

Remember the Alamo!

All those people who voted for $#iting in their own nest had better stay there and clean it up. Don’t be comung to Texas and bringing that $#it with them. They’ve already ruined Austin and that’s enough.
