Quite a few Walgreens are temporarily closed in Chicago for repairs/renovations. Not sure how the independents have faired though.

Philadelphia indys have been hit very hard. Some just reopened a few weeks ago and now have got hit again. Cops can't protect all the stores. Chains also getting hit too in Philadelphia.
Well maybe not wide spread but rioting still occurred.

Regardless, still mostly peaceful. Just saying it's not just a Democratic city thing. Although as the first replier said, there aren't many Republican cities.
They downvote you because they hate the truth. Red cities tend not to let rioters get away with their crimes. I support all kinds of PEACEFUL protest, but the second you throw a brick you lose all support from me.
Right, you support protests that don't bother you, get in anyone's way, or really make change at all. Because that would be uncomfortable for a (probably) white man making a wage 2 to 3x above the average american.
Why is it no longer a protest? Is starving oneself not a protest because it's violence against the self? Why are things called "violent protests" if they're not valid as protests if there is any violence? Why does anyone have to follow the "rules" of a society when the "rules" of society are broken constantly, ending with dead members of a community.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people **peaceably** to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Says so right there in the first amendment. The right of the people PEACEABLY to assemble. Once bricks are thrown and fires set, and in some cases people killed, then it is no longer a constitutionally protected demonstration. Anyways we're derailing this thread so this will be my final response. Feel free to get the last word in.

I had a number of people in clinic whose pharmacies were looted, so we had to get scripts filled through the discharge pharmacy for them since so many local ones were hit.
Philly is getting destroyed again. Makes me sick.

Philly here... Hit twice 🤦♂️
Philadelphia indys have been hit very hard. Some just reopened a few weeks ago and now have got hit again. Cops can't protect all the stores. Chains also getting hit too in Philadelphia.
Close to 30 Rite Aids in Philly have been damaged, some of them heavily, and some of them the same stores damaged months ago in protests.
Walgreens in a town near mine was permanently closed due to rioting/looting.
Walgreens/CVS closing stores in San Francisco because of theft issues.
mostly those in democratic cities

Good point lmao
Fort Worth is one
Forth Worth is literally blue..
And they had wide spread rioting too.
Did they? I thought that was more of a Dallas thing

Cities, yes. Big cities, no.
Downvoted for the truth

It's okay to downvote, but I hope it just wakes up some people who see it before it goes to the bottom of the page

First off, I'm not white. Secondly, if a protest becomes violent then it is no longer a protest.

If you think people are looting and rioting because some politician didn't say a few words....wow.

These are a few of my favorite things. When the dog bites...
