One of the lessons from Ferguson, Missouri, ignored by the 24/7 media frenzy, was that store owners who stood and defended their shops with guns did not get looted or vandalized.
At County Guns and the adjacent St. Louis Ink Tattoo Studio, peace and calm reigned.
Adam Weinstein, owner of County Guns, shares a storefront with his business partner on Florissant Avenue less than 10 minutes from where rioters started looting and burning businesses after a peaceful prayer vigil Sunday night, Aug. 10.

Shades of past riots when business owners defended their property when the popo wouldn't enter the area. I suppose that some businesses will recover from the chaos, but will the general economy in the area, which is probably not "enjoying" the recovery rumors we hear, get back on it's feet? Thanks for the improvement looters and rioters.

Ferguson is now destined to totally disappear over the next 10 years as the velocity of its drain circling increases.

“This is the AK-47 assault rifle, the preferred weapon of your enemy; and it makes a distinctive sound when fired at you, so remember it.”
or something similar, needs to be said to those who think they just might get a hankerin’ to loot and riot outside of their own neighborhoods.

It’d suck for the last thing you hear to be that “distinctive sound”.

You are seeing the birth of a ghetto . The business areas of Ferguson Mo. will become a wasteland of empty store fronts covered in graffiti as more & more small business owners pull out of the area looking for greener pastures.

How do you install that stuff?Very carefully! Kidding aside you install it the same way as concertina wire. In fact it comes with linked loops so that you can just pull it out and hook it to poles as you would concertina wire
