Sounds like a joke meme. The Baltimore economy is SO bad...

...looters donate merchandise to neighborhood stores.

we had recent occasion to visit Oakland, California, a once-quite-nice ‘middle class’ or ‘working peoples’’ community

today, it is so visibly a disaster zone as to defy description (excepting for one block of redevelopment downtown and a couple of ‘trendy yuppified’ districts in the hills above town...whose residents don't DARE go down into the main part of the city!)

just checked the Oakland phone book, there's not a single recognizable department store listed in the entire city

(they used to have at least two good department stores downtown and a third out in a shopping center that now features a giant-sized welfare dispening office instead)

the town has been under solid D management for decades

what have the D politicians, and the D policies, given Oakland.....? (ANSWER: a terrible lack of opportunity for the residents..... a super-high crime rate.... with lots of murders and major drug problems........a miserable state of dependency, despondency, and despair...)

Freakin’ meathead.

Businesses should stay out of the jungle. Law enforcement should too. Let the thugs kill each other.

But, they were given “room” to destroy.

Maybe next time they can find some tire stores? I hear they make nice necklaces.

Alice of Wonderland fame would be right at home with that mindset.

Just another black who’s gone into the “god business.” Making good on the passage in scripture about those “who draw near to Me with their lips but their hearts they are far from Me.”

“And then there were none ...”

Actually, it’s “and dey WAS none!” And in another ten years it will be just the same unless “they” start taking some responsibility for themselves starting with electing people who are not black shysters, having nuclear families, and making sure that their kids get an useful education.

And guess what Sherlock? There won't be anymore chain stores in that neighborhood after the CVS got burned out. Baltimore will be extremely luck if the CVS even comes back. Major chains see too much risk in your town.

So next time you can burn out the small Ma and Pa stores. That'll endear your thugs to the local community.

I guess we need to pass a law saying that WalMart, Target, Safeway, RiteAid, Sears and Nieman-Marcus need to go to Baltimore, so the next riot they’ll have more national chains to loot and burn. I’ll ask Bernie Sanders to introduce ‘The Baltimore Chain Store Looters Protection Act’. I believe Obama supporters will go for Bernie instead of Hillary.

Jamal the pastor must have written ‘The Bill Ayres/Jeremiah Wright Anti-American Bible’. The first paragraph reads...’In the beginning, God, who was named Trayvon Martin, created the black man...’

The Bible that he read scriptures from is the ‘Bill Ayres/Jeremiah Wright Anti-American Bible.’ It blames whites for the failure of opportunities in the inner cities, bot liberalism.
