A black business owner who invested his life savings into what is now a looted and destroyed sports bar cried on camera as he lamented, “I don’t know what I’m gonna do.”
A news report describes how the Minneapolis bar owner was attempting to clean up when thugs tried to break in again during filming and loot his safe.
“I don’t know what I’m gonna do, I worked so hard to get here, so hard,” the owner says as he cries.

The clip once again emphasizes how rioters are burning down their own community and destroying the lives of other black people, supposedly in pursuit of justice.
In reality, they’ve trashed their own neighborhood and made it highly unlikely that any new businesses will want to set up shop to serve the community there ever again.
Some business owners placed signs that said “minority owned” in an attempt to deter looters, but that obviously didn’t work for this bar owner.

He knows what to do! Blame it on President Trump else he aint Black!!!!
NJ cities will never recover until the permanent aggrieved underclass is expelled; while pockets of some cities can be fortified to comfort yuppies, in general such recovery is non-existent. The permanent aggrieved underclass sees it coming, and fights back; that was the rationale in the Jersey City deli shooting.
A lot of cities I grew up around in NJ were only recently starting to make a comeback from the devastation of the riots of the 60s and rot of the 70s.
They were still bastions of government handouts, but were seeing gentrifications as the hipsters rediscovered the hidden charms.
Between the virus and now this, will they take another 50-60 years to revive?
He said if an area recovered in the south that had been basically destroyed in the Civil, it took 50-60 years to recover.
So your 50 year old guesstimate is probably close.
While that has often been true, I have several comments about the Minneapolis activities:
- No one likes to commute, even to a riot. (/S)
- I've read/heard there were bused in agitators, Antifa types. If so, they should be rounded up (any out of stater caught at a riot) and treated harshly.
- On TV, the videos I've seen have had a lot of white youth as well as black dancing around the fires, although the whites didn't seem as active in the looting, more often taking videos and selfies.
So now, in “honor” of George Floyd, businesses have been destroyed, a looter has been killed, other people shot, and some people have lost everything.
Without a massive population replacement, NJ cities will not recover; as it is, they only get by with massive investment of public money. In most, there is no real tax base to speak of (private citizens or employers).
Won’t all those woke folks chip in and financially save him?

The Founders did all of the rioting and bloodshed for America. All we had to do is abide by the Constitution and vote. The left decided that wasn’t good enough and perverted the system,socially re-engineered the most vulnerable,blamed all problems on the Founders (white people) and said vote in the “progressive” “democracy”. Minneapolis St.Paul is a shining example of this and is burning down. Those burning it all down will never rebuild or have any answers to rebuild while never solving one thing. This comparison of American Patriots and these barbarians is disgusting.
Just like if the Timberwolves win the NBA Championship. They would loot...
Antifa-types participated fully in looting and riots.
Looks like they might’ve even got everything started:

Colin Kaepernick funding Minneapolis protesters’ legal defense after George Floyd death
Fox Business ^ | May 29 2020 | Thomas Barrabi

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has established a legal defense fund for Minneapolis protestors following the death of a black man while in police custody.
The Know Your Rights Camp Legal Defense Initiative was set up as an extension of Kaepernick’s eponymous nonprofit organization. The initiative will provide protestors who face charges with financial resources and access to top defense lawyers, according to its website.
“When there is an injustice within our community, it is our legal right to address it, by any means necessary,” the website says. “If you, or a loved one is in need of legal assistance, or has been arrested while fighting injustice in the Minneapolis area, please complete the form below with as much detail as possible.”
If you think back to some other riots stimulated by police harm of a minority, usually they occur pretty quickly. I was surprised things were so quiet the first night, although they really ramped up in the following two.
And, this was a particularly inflammatory event, well filmed, in broad daylight, with witnesses, and well publicized.
As I've said on other posts, non-locals at a riot should be presumed agitators and get harsh punishment. Prima facie evidence, as they say.
Agreed. Hope that happens.
Yes, Insurance pays for riots and civil commotion. Not terrorism though. This is not a terrorist act.
I hear you. It is sad what our cities have become.
I was born and raised in Boston, and have seen a lot of that.
True... The 1968 riots in the North end of Hartford burned a few supermarkets - First National, Popular and Stop and Shop. After the riots, it was bad, until about 1985 when an inner city supermarket opened. A major supermarket (Shop-Rite) announced they are building a new store near the North end...50 years after...
Well lets not go into fantasy land just yet. :)
The Twins or Vikings?? Maybe...
Appreciate your post & your scenario.
