They’ would be insane to stay. I would tell these mayors you wouldn’t provide the very basics of government in protection of me, my employees and my business/property WITH a police department standing around watching me be attacked, looted and burned dow. Do you honestly think I’m going to rebuild, even if I could with NO police department! No Beetlejuice, I’ll not sink another penny into your 3rd world city.

Don’t leave our city or we’ll burn your store down again.

This one is light beyond the foot ....

I thought WalMart was not allowed within Chicago city limits due to a union fight or something.

Maybe I am misrememberizing but it seems I read that a few years ago.

[Veggie Todd]

I think that’s pretty insensitive of you to post a picture of Groot instead of the mayor.

[SkyDancer]

They’re racis’ing out of there.

[SkyDancer]

PS: She and her city are going to sue to make them return?

Those big box stores probably lose more to shoplifting than they make. Besides, Kim Foxx isn’t even prosecuting shoplifting anymore.

Mokweetsi :When we get done looting today do you wanna go to Chicago with Mozambo and me?

Abdeliziz: Hell, no. It’s too dangerous there. All those inner city guys, all that murder. No way.

I remember something to the effect they usually prefer outside city limits, as big city taxes can be higher than the outlying county’s.

[The Duke]

They’ll probably do a deal where Walmart gets a tax break until all the damage is paid for.

BOL!

Mafia used to do that but at least they would also protect the business.

[MuttTheHoople]

My gosh...Beetlejuice has a fivehead!

[Grampa Dave]

BOL!

[Don Corleone]

Cost of doing business too high even for Wally World.

What happens when you live where there are no cops to enforce any laws.

Walmart may have little choice in not coming back. Even if self-insured, it's one thing to cover property, it's another to cover personal injury. Walmart is very fortunate no employee got hurt in these riots.

Also at issue is that many items sold in a store are on consignment where the display is stocked by the vendor and the store doesn't take ownership of it until the Point Of Sale transaction. It's seamless to the customer; you pick out an item, walk to the register, and in the same transaction Walmart buys it from the vendor and then sells it to you.

Many of those vendors aren't going to take that risk even if Walmart is.
