    that's a large building to try and torch. Used to be a Deli. It looks ghetto. Maybe if they cleaned it up they would be more successful.

  3. The way this country is headed I would not be shocked if you see more of this. The mall is going down and will be closing. What chance do small businesses have in this country anymore?

  4. You would think the owner of the business would know to turn off the security camera footage before torching his own place. Talk about the worlds dumbest criminals!

  5. 3:41 The country is not headed in this direction, the eastern shore is. I bought property in other states in 2009-11. There were foreclosures and half empty strip malls in those areas. Today, the shopping centers are full and my property values have tripled.

  6. Use to be a Shore Stop. Sold soon after the manager was killed during robbery years ago. She was one of the nicest customers I had the pleasure to deal with. It went to trash after sold to foreigners. They were a bunch of thieving crooks. Probably the MD comptroller agents finally caught up with them.
