I live in Spain and a couple of days ago I went to a sporting goods store to buy a pair of sneakers. The store had hundreds of pairs on display, but only 1 sneaker of each type. When I found the type I wanted to try on the sales clerk brought me 1 sneaker. I tried it, it fit so I asked my wife to tell the sales clerk I wanted to try on the other one she took the one I had and gave me the other single one to try on. When she got a nasty look from my wife she gave me both sneakers to put on so I could walk around with them while she watched. When I said I was happy she took the sneakers back again and gave me a number to take to the cashier. The sneakers were delivered to the front and given to me after I paid. I thought it was pretty funny and also a good idea to prevent theft. Could you imagine what would happen if they tried this in an American inner city neighborhood?

Read about this a few days ago. Incredible and only reason seems to be to further disarm local business owners and making them victims of local savages or running them out of town.

Pass the no-barrier law and let all the Korean shop owners move elsewhere. Who’s gonna want to open a store for liquor and cigs in the middle of that cesspool? Just shoot yourselves in the foot and see what happens.

They don’t want people to protect themselves against the animals they themselves have created.

If the customers are concerned about their “dignity” they can patronize stores without barriers.

I suspect stores with barriers are more conveniently located and may even have better prices because they do not have as much inventory “shrinkage”.

This is not a problem that needs government to interfere with he free market.

My best guess is that there is some other mega corporation that would like to take over, but the Korean business owners need to be gone first.

Nuisance establishments like stop-and-gos harm neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia in several ways,” Bass told Philly Magazine. “First, they contribute to increased crime. On any given day, you can find people in front of these businesses selling ‘loosies,’ or loose cigarettes, and engaging in other nuisance behaviors like loitering, public drunkenness, possible drug sales, and even public urination.”

Just take a moment to contemplate all that is wrong with this statement. If you really think about it, you might want to grab a bucket to puke into because it's that sickening.

We actually need another civil war. So much trash to take out, so many scores to settle, and not just the urban cesspools but their enablers.

Is “convenient store” typical up north? They’re called convenience stores in Florida. Just curious.

They'd just kick down the doors. They do it regularly here in the US.

The clerk’s get held uup and killed. The result will the stores will close.

Then friends of the council will buy them cheap, the rule will ne changed and the businesses stolen from the owners.

I said a million times that the left wants to “oppressed” to just waltz right in and take what is “rightfully” theirs from their “oppressors.”
QED.

After this ordinance is passed, and the store-owners have complied, this should happen: After the first robery/shooting, the council should be charged not only with the crime, but with conspiracy before the fact because they knew what would happen.

The sleazy customers in reality have no dignity. If they had dignity they wouldn’t be in that store
