Walmart is big enough to survive this. We need to look out for the small businesses. Those generally can not survive being burnt to the ground and looted. Insurance doesn't cover everything.

Did any of you even watch the f'n video? The issue is that she wants to feed her kids, but all the fucking food was stolen or wrecked.

God damn, the people on here sometimes. . .

Its not like employees need a fully functioning stocked Walmart to work and get paid. Its not like actual decent law abiding folks need the goods in the Walmart to purchase....

i agree, all those things are bad. hopefully police reform and racism will be addressed more and more so these can stop. the blood is on the police and governments hands

Because you are ruining the lives of black people living in those areas? You think mothers want to be shopping for their kids in this mess? Watch the video.

If she cannot feed her kids because the single fucking Walmart is wrecked then the Walmart is still the problem here, friend.

Then she says "plenty of vegetables"

There is actually food still there. Maybe not enough for the whole community, but it looks like she could get some.

Infact, she says she needs milk and I think I see milk product in the fridge as she walks by. The camera avoids giving a good shot of it.

It'll be a good decade or more before Walmart (or Target, or Autozone, or Wendys) bothers to rebuild in an area that looted its store. If they're even insured now (and riots generally aren't), the insurance premiums are going to be exorbitant next time.

I cant stand the people that are okay with this

Assholes destroy a store and you're happy that the workers are out of a job and the people have nowhere to buy food or supplies

Fuck the system! (In actuality you're just fucking your fellow man)

But things can be replaced! Maybe you need to replace the way you think

Maybe she doesnt have a car and thats the only place she could walk. Maybe she works late and Walmart is the only place open at that time. Maybe she works real early and its the only place open. Maybe theres one bus and the only store it goes near is Walmart .

its wild that throughout all this people are just acting like its nothing because someone told them not to like Walmart

I think everyone would be. To see a wreck like that and think uncovered food is okay .... I would definitely stay away.

I'm confused by all the white people from the suburbs that support this. At this point, that shit comes off as concern trolling.

"Think of the black people being brutalized by police, but who cares about the black people affected by the protests and riots"

"It's worth it guys"

Seriously, shut the fuck up lol.
