Doesn’t mean you gotta fukk up your own hood though. Trump got all these buildings out in NY. How about fukking ONE of those up. At least in SoHo and Midtown you know they’ll be taken care of. You think the city is gonna help the Bronx out? With what happened in Fordham they did real estate heads a favor. H&M watching this like “now that that hood sneaker store and jewelry spots are gone we can finally get that location.”

Bingo.

Because it's grounded in misguided moral grandstanding, most of these business owners are not made up of members of "your community".

So when these people rebuild/recover after this (If they can) and people still do business with them, what was the point? You want to hurt a business you do not like in your community? Then boycott it. Organize and spread that message. Convince enough people not to shop there and they will go away if that is what you want. If people are spending money in a place that does not support them, then burning it down will not do anything. Once it is back up they will keep spending their money in the establishment.

When that Korean beauty supply owner went upside the head of that black woman you had men trying to preach to the women not to shop there, but they still did. If those men burnt the business down then those same women would of went to another place that does not respect them.

It is easy to burn shyt down but it is not easy to organize a coherent and effective response to mistreatment. One of the things people forget about the Civil Rights movement is that they did not only march, but they economically boycotted businesses that were segregated or mistreated black people.

You think anything will go down tonight ?

what’s left? In the Bronx Fordham is like the only real shopping hub lol ..I guess 3rd ave and the bay plaza area are considered shopping areas

In Manhattan..I think it might be difficult , since midtown and soho were ran thru already

125? Other boroughs?

The city already barely helps out the Bronx; a major reason those kids are out there bugging out is the result of them being broke in the worlds richest city; household income in that area is only $33k; plus the role of commercial real of estate speculation is of little consequence when you have no stake in the system. And so, whether it is H&M or Cookies the lack of equity and options that the average kid has on Fordham does not change.

Back to Manhattan. Everything hasn't been hit. Hopefully they don't do any kickdoors.

Depending where you are in the Bronx, Queens is a short drive away.

Not too many places in Brooklyn besides the Junction and Downtown. You'd need a small platoon to break into Kings Plaza.

How is it "respectability politics" to say if you are going to loot and riot, do not fukk over the community? Both can be done at the same time. Burn and loot local businesses that are vulnerable but wont run up in the police precincts where the enemy is.

Cause cowards want some free shyt.

nypd seriously thought they would never have to pay for their disrespect
Are they though? Are scores of them being sent to the hospital? Are they being chased through the streets like they usually do to others? Are precincts being stormed and looted?

We should be lockdowned for the rest of the year:dwillhuh:
No either a vaccine is needed first or more testing before people go back outside.
We gotta remember us wearing mask social distancing and having good hygiene protects our mothers fathers grandmothers grandfathers and young children and those with immune system issues.

I know it sucks but you gotta think long term bro

I totally get the frustration, but if they weren’t jewelry and sneaker stores, they woulda been left alone. There wasn’t a deeper meaning to those kids looting other than getting free kicks and necklaces that say “Jocelyn” on em.


And yes there’s a huge difference between a Cookies and a H&M. H&M’s are the kind of stores that can raise rents around that spot just for being there. Everyone shopped at Fordham because it was comfortable. So many kids that were there last time spent many a weekend walking around Fordham living life. Now that shyt is gonna stay that way and they’re gonna have to go shopping somewhere else, where some other big company is gonna eat.

Don't forget 149th/3rd Ave and Southern Boulevard
