"They didn't experience it as their own" is such a sorry stab at an excuse that it makes one wonder if things can get better with so many like-thinkers on the loose. That means my home (and your home) are valid targets too....

"...They did not experience those places as their own..."

Well, yeah. In many cases, those places weren't their own. They were largely given to them. They weren't going to be in such a hurry to burn down a city block if one of the businesses or homes there was paid for them by the years of hard work they did, would they?

Gee, time to post the "I'm Shocked!" picture. We all see what happens to things (and people) when they don't have to work for something, and things ranging from money to houses to healthcare are "given" to them by other people (taxpayers).

When the feelings or well-being of animals like these rioters and looters are given priority over the well being of a random citizen or a business owner BY THE AUTHORITIES, here is what happens to those random citizens and businesses:

They aren’t protected.

Their families aren’t protected.

Their property isn’t protected.

Their business isn’t protected.

So, they do what any INTELLIGENT, THOUGHTFUL, RESPONSIBLE person does: They uproot their family and business, and LEAVE. (Because we all see what happens to those who stand up to the animals: If they survive being beaten to a pulp by a mob, they are demonized as racists)

And what happens after that?

We hear whining and moaning that people in those ravaged communities can’t get access to basic services, can’t get stores to buy food at, can’t get a cab to take them home because it is too dangerous for the cabbies. And they decry the people who left to survive as “racists” and characterize their leaving as racially based “white flight”.

And they demonize industry and commerce as racist because they don’t want to build factories or open stores in those areas, because the extra security costs add up to 30% to the overhead of business, an addition fatal to business survivability.

And they demonize banks as racist who won’t give business loans to someone who wants to open something in those areas, because they won’t make it past the first riot.

And they characterize as racist the unwillingness of insurance companies to offer low rates to businesses in those areas, because it is a guaranteed 100% loser for them.

THAT is what infuriates me about the animals doing this in places like Ferguson and Baltimore. They are doing all they can to drive people out of those areas so that much of the liberal black leadership can point to racist “white flight” as one of the roots of their failure to have a functioning community.

As a pharmacist for more than 30 years, I have been robbed twice. The first thing they want is the money and the second thing they demand is the drugs. Schedule 1 controlled drugs are not all kept under lock and key. Neither are Schedule IV controlled drugs. If that were the case, every pharmacy would need a large room safe on the premises. Xanax, Valium, Librium, Adderall etc.
