Why do law abiding black people put up with this $hit? It’s only a small portion of the black community that is terrorizing the rest.

You need to recheck the crime stats. The portion is well over 50%.
Obviously not small enough.
A terrorist has a huge force multiplication factor. A small gang can terrorize thousands of residents. This is because the residents aren't allowed a proactive defense ("go out and kill them all") but gangsters can do a proactive offense.
In this case nothing can be done short of closing the store and reopening it tens of miles away from the nearest public transit.
Quite a few science fiction books show the future society as deeply segregated, sometimes with physical barriers, ID cards and security. The writers have the right to write what they think, and that's what they see as most likely. The reason is that humans are all different, and if you have ten sheep and ten wolves in an enclosed space this balance won't last long. However modern PC theories believe that a few sheep taken now and then by a few wolves is an acceptable price to pay - as long as they themselves are not one of those sheep who get eaten.
