IIRC the Uncles opened in 1971 and Blyly was there from the onset. Long predating the current wave of liberal lunacy in SF although there was a different wavelet of such in then new SF. But older, now flagrantly unpC, standards, like Heinlein, still dominated the genre. I'd load my car with classics from both Uncles whenever I made it to Mpls; only its distance saved my budget. He respected his customers and stocked everything. Those who did this aren't worth the least of them. Tactically, respect their power. Strategically end them as Cortez did the mass murder machinations of the Aztecs.

Blyly has got to be old enough now that him personally defending his highly combustible merchandise was unrealistic. Confiscate all the wealth (Soros, etc.) behind the rioters and use that towards reimbursing their victims.

NOT USUALLY, ARSON.

Settle up with lawsuits against the city.

In Florida the police and security officer “Stood down” er “held the perimeter (through which the school shooter escaped)”.

Dereliction of duty.

In one video I have seen a mob of white people in Tulsa chasing after a trailer truck with horses and the crowd are throwing things. They persist in this as the truck stops for assistance to put up a tailgate ramp. At that point the Leftists are throwing things in the vicinity of the cops and nothing is done to the lynch mob, er “protesters”.

By the way, all of this took place on an elevated highway (interstate freeway?) where people shouldn’t be loitering in the lanes anyhow.

They also attempted to loot comic book stores in California.

This is about personal greed, not retribution or justice.

>>Author-signed copies, particularly first editions, were an Uncles specialty.
Out of print and rare books cannot be replaced.

Sounds like a low-level version of the library of Alexandria burning.

Dang.

This guy was my hero. It is not easy being a book seller now days and it is a business you go into for love.
