    Default NYT Bemoans The Numbers Of Businesses 'Abandoning' Manhattan

    It appears they are blaming all of it on the virus, which of course is not the case. It's the politicians and the violence, just look what the chains are finding in FL, TX, even CA.

    Default Anyone Who Thinks The Looting In Chicago Wasn't Preplanned?

    Well looky here, guess who was ready and waiting to call looting reparations. Look at the videos of looting-all opportunist young folks sent to get 'stuff' and wreck havoc.

    Look who was demanding that the arrested be released: Near all-white, college kids. A smattering of college black lives matter leadership:

    There has been a MASSIVE uptick in crime, in shootings. In addition, many lower arrests. - and then deep budget cuts, and over 1,000 recruits canceled instantly. Murder is up, burglary doubled... all major crimes up by 12% total. Many are taking extended vacations that can afford to do so - but many many others bailed completely over the past few years.

    What a huge load of horseshit:

    “I don’t care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy’s or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats,”
    Sound familiar? AOC dipshit claimed people needed to go loot to get bread or go hungry. Just another way of rewording it.

    And a form of reparations? To let black folks steal expensive stuff? "Stealing will make sure that person has clothes"?

    And then:

    “Anything they wanted to take, they can take it because these businesses have insurance.”
    Oh, I didn't realize that. Out of curiosity, are banks insured for their cash?

    This is the most ass backwards thing I've heard yet. Any excuse to steal shit.
    “You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

    Justification is what it is, when being analyzed. Bullshit when being honest.
