Sadly, in the end, the stores that protected themselves or were never looted are just as destroyed as the ones burned down, because they too are located in Ferguson, MO, and Ferguson MO is now on a free fall down like Detroit. Detroit has still not recovered from its riots of 1967. Ferguson will not bounce back, not when the same people live there.
Anyone, black or white, who has property in Ferguson needs to put it up for sale now, before it goes down to $1 and still won't sell, like Detroit. Let your leases expire and go. And don't be sentimental about the town or the good people left.
