See list of the Ferguson businesses destroyed during the riots, as well as links to their fund raising pages if they can be found, as reported at the Saint Louis Post Dispatch, Yahoo News, the New York Post, Breitbart, the Wall Street Journal, and other sources. Some businesses had windows smashed in, and others were burned to the ground. Some have had more publicity and support than others, but they have all suffered.
The Dellwood Conoco, for example, was burned to the ground and has received $385 dollars on their fundraising page at the time of this writing. Natalie Dubose, who had a window smashed out but received media attention, has received $257,000 at the time of this writing. Aside from businesses, cars were burned and there were multiple reports of shots being fired. Some of the incidents are mapped here, and also documented at Broadside News. More
Nothing changes. Many of us served to protect law abiding Baltimore citizens in 1968 and for the very same reasons. It was NEVER their fault. It was always their pay back for perceived oppression. Shut down those that provide you services and your services END real quick. We cease to feel sorry for YOU pretty quickly.
If I were an insurance company I would not pay one cent because these businesses were not protected by the police or the Nat. Guard. Close up, move out and let them kill each other. Until the good black people of this community stand up and take their town back, gangs will persists and there will be no peace.
Obama will bail them out , meaning we will pay for the damage that animals have done.

ReplyDeleteWhy should I care? These people are burning down their own town! Is there some sort of sympathy I'm supposed to be feeling?
ReplyDeleteI'm totally empty on this one.

ReplyDeleteSorry, but not a penny from my household.
ReplyDeleteThey knew it was coming so as far as I am concerned they should have packed up until the ruckus was over.
Every time something in this world happens they all start asking for handouts, and I am quite sick of it.
Insurance will pay for most of it.
Half of them are also bogus, I got another request from some anonymous organization asking for money, who owns it? how is the money being spent?
