If we got rid of the tax deduction for shrinkage losses, I’ll bet biz would be far less inclined to put up with this cr@p.
Give the looters time, they’ll get there.
I’m actually surprised Trump Tower hasn’t been targeted yet.
DeBlazio is killing the city. Cuomo is killing New Yorkers.

Four freaking “reporters” and apparently not a one of them knows what razor wire actually is. The store has been wrapped in standard chainlink fencing.
They will steal the razor wire first.
That sums it all up. For some reason, looking at these photos, I’m reminded of photos of Beirut (formerly “the Paris of the Middle East”) after the Lebanese Civil War. I never thought I’d see our cities, all over the country, looking like that. It just makes one grieve for what we had and how we were.
razor wire and dogs, oh my!
bet the left doesn’t say a word
Razor wire is razist!
Concertina: More than just an accordian.
The people behind the riots, probably would like to see some rioters encounter the dogs in a Bull Connor type video op.
Is that what happened to fire hoses?
So on a related theme... I was wondering what I’d do if I was a property owner with a large store that may or many not have large plate glass windows. I think it goes without saying that store owners are thinking along these lines because they obviously were all incredibly (and dare I say stupidly) vulnerable and I don’t think that any of these folks want to be caught with their pants down next time....
It goes without saying that one would want to be able to implement a perimeter protective system that could be put in place in seconds... but also didn’t make the store look like junk or an armed fortress during normal peaceful shopping days. There are lots of things that could be done... so first and foremost, I’d put in a steel barrier that would hide away in pocket doors that slide in horizontally or lifted vertically. It would have to be designed with no ‘hook points’ where somebody would get a hook on it and tear it off with a vehicle. Regardless, I don’t think the ‘solution’ is just one thing....,
I also like the idea of a motion activated nozzles.... perhaps releasing high pressure steam or how about an easy to clean up misted lubricant of vegetable oil that made everything so slippery it would be impossible to stand on the sidewalk in front of the store let alone get a grip on the barrier. Is there a chemical that would be a better choice... a legal type of bear spray or stink that makes an intruder immediately nauseous? How about a two part entry system with some nice guard dogs so that if they got past the first barrier, they would be met by the welcoming pack of vicious dogs? Perhaps a motion activated 140 dB squeal that would blow their ear drums right out of their head? A trap door that dropped them into an alligator pit? Seriously, it would be good if as part of this effort, something could be taken from the perps beyond pictures that would clearly identify exactly who the thugs are....
Ok... some of these ideas are not completely practical or legal but I’d like to see what other clever Freepers come up with....
Anyone who has been in the Army knows the proper term is RAZOR TAPE.
Also, the RAZOR TAPE at the top of the chain link fence is stretched out way to tight. As installed, it is virtually useless. Needs to have at least triple the coverage to be effective.
