Hurts the shoppers' feeling? More like the armed robbers' feelings.
I went to college and lived in the south side of Chicago for three years. Bullet proff glass was a basic feature of places on the edge of Hyde Park on 53rd Street, and pretty much a necessity on Cottage Grove. The first casualty? Extended hours. Some of those places (e.g. Harold’s Chicken Shack on 53rd and Kenwood) weren’t so bad during the day. I can see places like that closing at 8PM instead of midnight.
Some places that rely on late night business (convenience stores, sandwich shops) may just close down altogether.
And Moochelle wonders why the live in “food deserts.”
It’s totally un-PC (and racist) to mention the reason for neighborhoods to collapse into drugs and crime.
“The bill now instructs the citys Department of Licenses and Inspections to promulgate regulations to provide for the use or removal of any physical barrier in places that serve food and alcohol by no later than Jan. 1, 2021.
The amended bill is expected to go up for a full Council vote Dec. 14.
What were asking L&I to do is come up with some regulations, Bass said after the hearing. The issue regarding the barrier window is still on the table, she said.”
It will be voted on 12/14 and it would not go into effect until 2021 if it passes.
This gives the establishments time to plan their moves to get around the policy.
A victory for gang bangers...
As a rural guy, I can tell you the way to stop public urination is with an electric fence charger.
Removing safety glass is not going to do anything at all.
I’m thinking organize a recall movement.
You know what else hurts shoppers’ feelings? Locks on the door at night when the shop is closed. Ban locks! They is raciss.
Mark my words here’s the real plan. Ban the glass, sales dropb valu ofstores fall the owners close stores. Then like magic friends of the politician s buy the old store for cheap, the ban is reversed. And the criminals in offoce get kickbacks
Gotta give the killers an equal chance.
