I can’t believe someone didn’t just buy the entire inventory at $.20/1.00 and both parties are better off.

What a waste, but I can understand the cops point of view. I could see a situation like this turning ugly in a heartbeat when greed sets in.

It is Illegal for Restaurants to give away Free Food, I bet it is also Illegal for Stores to do the same.

It is too bad the food could not have been donated to a local shelter or food bank. Someone wasn’t thinking and/or didn’t care. The bank could have earned kudos in the community by arranging pickup of the food for delivery to the shelter. With landfill dumping fees and dumpster rental, delivery of the food might have been cheaper.

Government handouts -- they keep the poor dependent on politicians, and keep them voting the right way.

If a restaurant, a store, or some kind of business tries to do something to help the poor, they are likely to find out that there is some law somewhere that is being violated. The cops will show up, trash the food, admonish the citizens trying to help the poor, and then remind the crowd that real help can only be found from the government masters.

onlookers became angry when they learned they would not be allowed to take away food and other sundries that were piled outside the grocery as “abandoned property.”

And if someone get sick or worse, the food producers would get sued if it was allowed to happen!!

Maybe they went out of business because they tried to run a business in a black community... and the ‘shrinkage’ rate was so high they had to close. (people were stealing from them) They figured they would rather throw the food away...

There’s rational reasons business shy away from black communities. It’s because gang banger and crooks run the communities and the honest black citizens hide in their homes... wondering why they don’t have places close by to shop at...
