Springsteen tried to bring Asbury Park back.. after the riots , no one wanted to go there and the city became a ghost town
We need a deterrent from this happening ..
People have to face severe consequences for their actions. There isn't a band-aid fix. Although, the government is prone to try it, in the end, it doesn't work. The situation gets tabled over.
People themselves have to change their behavior, the government can not do that for them.
The government can provide grants (money one needs not pay back) to relocate a business, where the need is justified. (see SBA)
People have to face the music on their own; there are no two ways about it.
We can not have one law effect one group of people and not have that same law effect the other groups as well. When that happens then there is inequality under the law. (... when the bell tolls, it may toll for thee) A poster has as their status, 'google blowback', it does apply here.
The law is not in the business of right or wrong, it is in the legal business.

I hope the law is in the business of right and wrong.. we pay indirectly when rioting takes place.. the insurance companies place the added costs to all who have a policy with them and explain they have to raise premiums because of added costs.. so we have to pay for those who destroy. So the rioting continues. There is no deterrent.
I was talking to someone who thought there should be a deterrent for the looting and destruction that happens when the black community thinks that injustice should be met with burning and looting stores and businesses. He thought of a tax that should be placed to cover the cost and a penalty for such behavior on the black community.
Maybe there would be better parenting if the community had to pay for what they have allowed . This should be considered. They must understand that there is a down side to this kind of bad behavior.
What do you think of a black looting and destruction tax on the community? What other deterrent do you think would change this kind of unacceptable behavior?
Should all white people pay a special tax to deal with the damages caused by domestic terrorists like the sovereign citizens, Bundy's Mormon militia and groups like the Oathkeepers?
"Should There Be A Looting and Destruction Tax on the Black Community?"
Yes, by cutting their public assistance by X percentage for a defined period each time there's a breakout. I'm pretty sure the black doctor and his kids aren't out there being savages.
The bottom line is this: Black people only listen to black people, they only allow themselves to be encouraged by black people so until legitimate blacks start to condemn the acts of illegitimate blacks the cycle will continue.
So long as we have the Kanye West's and such excusing and basically encouraging the animal like behaviors we will keep seeing more of the same.
Actually, that wouldn't work.
Most of the rioters were young men with no jobs, no education, and little to lose. Last I checked, young, single men don't get alot of public assistance compared to young, single women with kids. The only people who would be affected are the women with young kids who didn't participate.
The kind of public assistance that men are the most likely to get is unemployment benefits. You get that when you get laid off from a job. I'm betting that most of the looters never had legal jobs and therefore, could never qualify for unemployment benefits.
The looters/rioters were likely young men with nothing to lose but life and liberty. And some have likely been to prison for other crimes. And I'm also betting that there were drug dealers involved.

They pay through the insurance companies. think deeper..

Will it apply to white college students when they destroy schools or white adults destroy downtowns after football games.
Will all those families get there moneys back with all the destruction whites did to there neighborhoods during the early parts of the 20th century
A tax on the entire community is unfair to the innocent. What I would suggest it:
1) If a kid misses over X number of days of school, or fails to maintain a passing average, they lose any public assistance going for him/her to the family. Give the parents an incentive to get involved with the kid's education.
2) If a minor is arrested for a felony-the entire family loses any benefits. No welfare, no EBT, no food stamps, no section 8. Again, give the parents a reason to actually parent.
Cut off all food stamps and welfare payments to every address in the infected area.
