    At least 200 small businesses were targeted by looters

    At least 200 small businesses were targeted by looters, including La'Vanter Boutique, where owner Jameelah Scurry arrived on Tuesday to find it a shell of its former self.

    'We are now in danger of losing everything we worked so hard for,' Scurry said Wednesday, adding 'we had everything taken from us in less than a minute.'

    Looters clean out entire black-owned boutique in less than one minute in Philadelphia during a night of protest over the fatal police shooting of Walter Wallace Jr.

    At least 20 looters damaged La'Vanter Boutique in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday night and the Owner Jameelah Scurry said her store was cleared out in under one minute. Surveillance footage captured the incident, which Scurry shared online

    Demonstrations sparked in Philadelphia after Walter Wallace Jr., 27, was shot dead by police officers on Monday

    Saw this on T.V. this morning and I have one ideation...a rather bleak and somber one. Is this OUR future on and after election day for our Republic when Trump wins? This can be stopped before it starts with an announced, "YOU LOOT WE SHOOT!"

      The guy owns a business in Philly and he didn't expect this? Showing up after the riot is poor planning. LOOTERS WILL BE SHOT ON SIGHT. Yeah, right. Sounds good. I've heard that since I was a kid.
      If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

          Yet ANOTHER story that only Fox & the foreign press will report, because any info detrimental to BLM & the Dems is suppressed by US media.

            In Ferguson. Missouri, they complained that they HAD to loot mom-and-pop stores because there was only one national chain store in the area.

            I'll bet there aren't any now.

              The only safe business to own in a democrat ruined city is an employment office. No one will loot or go anywhere near it. The downside of course is the owner will go bankrupt from lack of business.

                The Koreans who own business in crappy neighborhoods know what they are dealing with. They start at the bottom. They make it work because they are the only ones with any brains in the area and work hard. No jackasses are going to take it away. The kids working at the Best Buy don't own or care about the place.

                  City Council in Philadelphia just voted that police are not allowed to use tear gas against the rioters. They are already forbidden to use Tasers. Maybe they should use powder puffs?

                  Meanwhile the Mayor has finally called in the National Guard, something he should have done after the first day.

                    And I don't think the National Guard takes orders from the city council. Lock and load.

                      was it tear gas or flash bangs that burnt up a block or 2 years ago?

                        Somebody should tell Wallace's mother--she's been saying "why didn't they use Tasers?"

                          It was tear gas that burnt the Branch Davidian Compound in Waco, killing about 80 people. It was a bag of C4, laid on the roof of a building in Philadelphia during the MOVE siege that started the fire that burned down the whole neighborhood.

                            They may have to resort to something more lethal.
