My Fox Philly ^

Posted on 12/18/2011 3:36:58 PM PST by Red in Blue PA

PHILADELPHIA - A North Philadelphia shop owner said he had no words to describe his emotions upon returning from India, where he had attended his mother’s funeral, to discover his store had been looted and vandalized.

Bhupinder Cheema had operated a small convenience store near Germantown Avenue and West Cumberland Street, and had invested thousands of dollars into the business. Over the course of trip to Indian, which lasted several weeks, word spread through the neighborhood that the store had been left unattended.

Am I misunderstanding to which Lake Erie you are referring? Your page says TX.

Eric Holder's people have a right to steal anything that is not nailed down, but it is racist when businesses abandon their neighborhoods because they steal anything that is not nailed down.

Just ask Moochelle.

I know that neighborhood. That’s not a place to have a store, let alone have a store and leave it unguarded. That neighborhood is not a place to drive through or get close to. It’s a filthy, smelly zoo toilet. It’s exactly what you picture when you read this story, and worse. This looting and vandalism was as predictable as Easter falling on a Sunday.

(shrug) Mr. Indian fellow, reopen your store somewhere civilized. I strongly recommend it NOT be located in any concentrated Democrat parasite nest (”city”). Good luck.

That’s a shame; they’ll watch people walk past the fresh fruit & vegetables and buy Cheetos for dinner.

You can lead a ward of the state to a supermarket, but you can’t make them eat well...

That is just what I said to my husband.We live right outside of Philly.Also people did report this to the police and some were interviewed and showed their disgust for what happened.That being said he should have someone watch the store knowing the neighborhood he was in.

Oh, I see; I’ve been through there, and it seems much cleaner than NJ. In fact, in driving across the country, it ALL seems cleaner than NJ.

I have successfully avoided DC and Jersey all of my life.

Been to NYC a few times against my better judgement.

It’s a shame that these entrepreneurs from other countries don’t have the geographical awareness or understanding of the urban $hitholes where they are risking their investment capital and their lives.


I am not accusing this gentleman of anything and don’t know anything about his specific store but you would be SHOCKED if you knew how much welfare fraud with the food stamp program takes place at these little inner city mom and pop’s. They find ways to sell cigarettes, beer, and anything else using EBT cards if they are not paying out 50 cents on the dollar and there is very little investigation done by the agencies that oversee the programs.

This was horrible but ask yourself why so many of these stores flourish in the inner city.

Must be Holder’s People on the police force and Holder’s people doing the looting.

Now you know why there are no chain supermarkets in inner cities like this.

They get robbed blind by visitors and employees.

I feel sorry for this guy. Perhaps, he will move to a non-criminal section of the country and succeed.
