Looters in the Port Richmond neighborhood of Philadelphia ransacked a Walmart during the second night of protesting the shooting of an armed Black man on the city’s west side. Rioters broke pipes in the ceiling, flooding the store.
Fox29 reporter Steve Keeley tweeted video from inside the pillaged Walmart early Wednesday morning. The footage shows the devastation left behind by looters who stole everything from big-screen televisions to small appliances. Water is seen spraying from pipes in the ceiling.
The unrest began after two officers shot and killed an armed Black man, Walter Wallace, Jr. Video captured by a witness shows Wallace advancing on two police officers around a car and into the street. Officers ordered Wallace repeatedly to drop the knife.
Wallace continued approaching the retreating officers with the knife extended toward the police. Multiple shots rang out and Wallace fell to the ground. A responding police officer loaded Wallace into a vehicle and drove him to the hospital. He later died from his wounds.

No stimulus for thee....
But... that creates "merchandising deserts," which is racist. /S
“Nothing screams out for racial justice like loading a Walmart does it?”

Delicious irony, here.
Since the founder of Walmart passed the company has gone full-bore liberal.
In essence, Walmart has paid the democrat rabble to ruin their own stores.
I do feel for some of the Walmart employees as it’s their earning capability that’s being flushed down the drain.
Biden's America.....
Riots are nothing but an excuse to loot.
Tell those who cry racism that they are welcome to open their own store to replace that which pulled out.
Walmart will wait until nobody is paying attention (a few weeks or months) and then very quietly close the store.
In the meantime they will not have minimal restocking so that the inventory bleeds out over time....
Oops!
Walmart knows full well that their clientele is spending our tax dollars in that store and will rebuild it to keep it coming in. Walmart also knows that if they close this store, the mutants who trashed it will just shop at the nearest one anyway.
What IS it about Philadelphians? Aside from this looting, when they lose a pro game, they go crazy and destructive and same thing when they WIN!!
Nah, most people today have their assets tied up in financial accounts that are typically accessed online. They'd never be able to figure out how to access that stuff. And why steal old, used physical stuff from people scattered across huge geographical areas when they can easily go right down the street in the city where shiny, brand-new expensive stuff is all very conveniently stacked up for them for quick-and-easy looting in store after store after store ... That's why they loot major Democrat-run cities' shopping districts. Easy convenience.
Then, in a few weeks, those same looted stores are all conveniently restocked for the looters' next violent BLM wild riot. Even better, all the big-city Democrat mayors and Democrat police chiefs always totally emasculate their police departments, ordering them to retreat, so that the violent BLM wild rioters can have their "safe space" to commit their never-ending looting. And they're never satisfied with how much stuff they've already looted. They always want more and more and ...... never ends.
You can almost imagine violent Marxist BLM rioters texting each other: What? Someone was killed? Was the person black? No? Sheeite! ... (next day) ... What? Someone was killed? Was the person black? Yes? Alright, sounds like it's time for violent Marxist BLM to wildly loot again!
Check the surveillance video! Were the looters following the direction arrows on the floor?
If not, ARREST THEM! COVID violations.
Desserts - deserts ... Easy to do.
And Walmart’s response will be give multi-millions of more money to BLM!

IMO, what is happening is transparent. Rioters just wait until police have to take action against someone the rioters can use as an example. At that point, people who could care less about the alleged offense of the perp, or the police see free stuff to steal.
What might eventually happen is that cities will be abandoned because of loss of property and business.
We live in interesting times, and something large is going to happen to right the current imbalance.
Parts of Philly, even in ghettos, were actually getting better with investment and people being normal after decades of rot. Philadelphia and all of the DNC run ghetto fiefdoms and black slave voter/welfare plantations are back to what they once were as total sh*tholes reminiscent of the ‘70s and ‘80s.
Can I return my looted goods for a full refund if I find they were damaged by water from the faulty pipes?
Another one bites the dust. One by one the are creating “Shopping Deserts,” in those areas IF it actually matters to them.
