I mean they're destroying police cars and the whole nine yards and getting away with it. That Alexander Mcqueen store got hit hard buy a bunch people with useless parents. Beverly Hills PD sadly looked over matched.

In 2 years this same group will cry about how nobody wants to open businesses in their neighborhood.

I Honestly, I think part of it is frustration of sheltering in place going from 2 weeks to 2 months.People were just looking for an excuse. People on the boards have said a return of 92 was coming and here it is.
And Minneapolis just looks like "Apocalypse Now". Hope LA County officials put the shut down on this soon this soon.

This wasn't spontaneous like 65 or 92 and it didn't spread to Beverly Hills or the Groove. It started there with the intent to have the violence on more affluent parts of the county that was inside the easy zone for the media to concentrate at. Thus the rich of the San Gabriel Valley were spared.

I did notice Pasadena also announced curfews like the ground zero western LA cities did.

Why would a store rely on the police to protect it?

A private security guard with a gun costs $20 per hour.

If the police can't take control they all ought to be fired and replaced with men who can.

Sadly, this is the best thing for gun stores and ammo sales. We are as quiet up here as before, but Sacramento is hurting. I hope Chico won't erupt.

We have a president who thinks nothing of calling peaceful protesters "thugs" and tweets messages that incite violence.

The gun might as well be crazy glued in the holster. A private security guard is like a impotent man doing a porno movie.

You think a guy making $20 a hour is gonna risk life and limb to protect a bunch of clothing? And even if he does how long do you think he can hold off a mob?

Im sorry but I just don’t see how destroying businesses, setting buildings on fire in any way advances the cause. Unless the cause and purpose is complete anarchy.

They are criminals and wanna be criminals. I have zero sympathy for them and their actions.

Exactly, no security guard going to risk his/her life over a store. Even cops for most part were staying back.

Through many post it's clear you have no respect for law and order or respect in general for other people. People pay good money for housing to make sure the majority their neighbors are not like you. From most of your post, I don't think anybody takes seriously anymore. You're either really living that wild life which means you probably will get cut down eventually by the streets or law enforcement, or someone with mental illness living out fantasies online. Sad either way.
