Black Lives Matter Demands Grocery Store Remain Open Despite Losing $7,000 a Day to Theft
PJ Media ^ | 1-17-25 | Rick Moran

The Safeway Food Store in the Filmore District of San Francisco has been beset with shoplifters and other criminal activity for years. The company finally decided in December that it had enough and was closing the doors of the store for good.

George Gibbs, a long-time shopper at the store, acknowledges the problems. "I've seen people running out the door with stuff and running across the parking lot," he said. "I've seen folks walk out in handcuffs for stealing something."

Black Lives Matter activists are now demanding that the store stay open or that another low-cost food store take its place.

A member of BLM and the Fillmore United Alliance, Daniel Landry, said in a statement at a recent rally, “We’re not playing. We are demanding."

“How about honoring his ‘content of character’ portion of his famous wise quote.”

All they care about is color. Character does not come in to play.

They demand? What will they do if ignored? Can’t steal if the store’s not there, they already did their voting with their sticky fingers.

They took their demands to heart and started ignoring it immediately.

Is there any town or city in the country where it has improved when blacks makeup more than 20% of the population?

They may very well get Newsom and the Democrats to order that the store remains open with the help of left-wing judges

Once they closed down the stores in the city centers they’re going to start looking for food elsewhere. Make sure your home is protected. I strongly suggest ring cameras and other security measures.

Word is Patrisse Cullors lost two of her mansions to the LA fires. So, she has only one left, and I doubt she would want a store there.

Might be fake news, though.

I wonder if the grocery store is owned by Caucasian people or negroids?

Yeah go to the police with a ring camera picture of a person ransacking your home for food only to get arrested yourself for racism and violation of his privacy and recording in a private place without his permission as the tennant in possession.
