BOSTON (CBS) – Much of Boston still has that ominous look of uncertainty. While some businesses have finally taken the plywood off their windows, many on Newbury Street, and in Downtown Crossing are still afraid to take it down a full week since the presidential election.
“I think they may just stay boarded up until there is an extremely definitive answer,” said Emily Chan, as she walked by Zara. “But that might take a while, I don’t know. I hope it’s decided soon so then we can move on.”
“I think it’s easier to leave them up, than take them down and then put them back up,” said another shopper.
"I feel bad that they’re spending the money they need to spend in order to do this,” said Lou Falzarano, who owns Boston Board Up. He says he removed some wood from stores this week, but they’ve asked him to keep the wood on-hand in case they need to quickly put it back up. He says plywood prices have shot up three-fold due to demand during the pandemic.
Even though his business has been brisk, he says he’d rather work on other projects. “I don’t really feel it’s good for our business,” he said. “This isn’t really what we want to be doing.”
Business owners say the look of the boarded up windows is driving customers away at a time when they’re needed most.
Where were all the rioting conservatives
in Boston and elsewhere a week ago?
What, no right wing looting and
burning?
Customers feel uneasy seeing the plywood.
Is a riot due to break out? Killing
businesses (along with the lockdowns...)
The piece on Ch 4 begins with a graphic
saying President-Elect Joe Biden.
He is not.Not decided yet and the
Electoral College doesn’t meet for
another month. Presumptive...at this
time...
That is probably a good idea. It ain’t over.
That’s right ...because this bullshit Biden win is going to be overturned.
And when that happens ,the scurrilous scum are going to take the the streets and start ripping up America and will try to depose Trump by force .
But this time it will be different . We are ready , and when the police retreat in confusion, and fir lack of orders to do something, the Patriots if America will come forth , armed to the teeth , with ammo bearers in trail , and those street will run deep , red with the masses of the slain Leftist anarchists. In a few weeks , when it’s over , America will be much better off . Without them
The protests start December 14th. Either way.
These businesses are wise to ignore the “election is over” noise.
This is just getting started—with major rioting (as Biden goes down in flames) scheduled as a December event.
Smart move...
Might as well paint murals on it or something...
Get used to it being there a while.
“And when that happens ,the scurrilous scum are going to take the the streets and start ripping up America and will try to depose Trump by force .”
Not really.
They will just wreck blue cities for a few days and then get bored and too cold.
Well, as soon as those crazy pubbies stop burning and looting, maybe the business owners can open back up without the plywood:)
Boston and Massachusetts is currently under curfew from 10 pm to 5 am. The biggest celebration when Biden was projected winner was in Harvard Square and Harvard Yard. Go figure.
yes, be afraid of the DNC and their brownshirts.
A Biden win is a win for the anti American forces that prefer the “death to America” agenda by attacking it’s constition.
This force accelerated immensely under the “constitutional expert”, BHO. He, the marxist muslim sought to take the Christian heritage (bible and guns) out of the American constitution.
The spine that made America great was the Magna Carta, a document created by bible “thumpers” at the height of the Christian attempts to retake the holy lands.
Back then, it was bibles and swords. For the muslim’s we are the “crusaders”.
This is the heritage that “built that”and America is a continuation of that philosophy.. Islam doesn’t want to see it that way.
Nor did BHO and his regime which is still intertwined with the “deep state”
They will be all set when fake president Biden shuts the economy down to eliminate another 30% of small businesses.
Smart people know Trump won.
