This also falls along some fairly predictable lines, even based on Demscum and GOPe premises:

The Demscum and GOPe claim to be the parties of the poor and victimized.

They allege true conservatives are the part of the rich and self-reliant aka “privileged.”

Well, if you’re a Demscum or GOPe, how do you get elected (which is all they care about)? Generate more poor and victimized.

It’s really that simple.

So, the plan is to run the Asians out of town, selling to Black storekeepers who are linked to Councilmen, then the Council will rescind the ordinance?

So transparent.

It's a stretch, but bullet proof glass could be a variant of the 2nd amendment "right to bear arms". Certainly, a sword or knife is a form of arms. And bullet proof glass could be considered "defensive arms".

In any case, natural law tells us that we have a right to protect ourselves from harm, no matter what the gibs-me-dats say.

Call a special election for gross incompetence and replace the 14.

OK. A brick wall instead.

Post a list of all the items you carry on that brick wall, with a steel
drawer that passes through. And an intercom.

This violates property rights, people have the right to buy safety glass, and stand behind it on their own property.

I’m sure the city has their own cashiers, behind glass.

Philly will be "underserved" (that term irritates me, don't know why)

Here is how it works: North, West and parts of South are enterprise zones in Phila mean Koreans, Indians and Muslims can set up shop in murder zones and lay next to no tax.

I used to call on a black owned business in North Phila, he told me “How can I compete as a shop when I need to buy product for my store and the Korean can go to the local Korean Distributor who gets his product 50% less than I do? There are no local black distributors any more and the the only people who used to give blacks a break were the Jewish Distributors.

Here is the kicker: the black politician has destroyed the black communities because of enterprise zones that reward “immigrants” to sell in enterprise zones while nothing is rewarded to blacks in run down communities because they are citizens.

Make sense? The black community is truly caught by their own politicians and the welfare system keeping them in perpetual serfdom.

Now that the bullet proof glass is coming down, the Koreans will move out. Interesting as this may be a political ploy to knock down the buildings the Korean sell from to bring in parking for Temple in North Phila, U Penn in West Phila etc. Not just parking but huge real estate for the likes of Comcast.

The only underserving are those who don’t spend ~40% of the work day as slaves to the governments.

So screw the indignity of her constituents robbing and shooting the store personnel.

I hope there is a mass exodus of busineses out of her area.
