How does destroying other people’s property, businesses, livelihoods, and hard work help any cause for those who have been unjustly treated?
It only divides and creates anger.
I cried while watching my daughter’s business in Seattle be looted and destroyed on Saturday evening. A place she and her co-workers have tried so hard to keep afloat during the Pandemic and were working overtime to prepare for a hopeful reopening. All dashed to pieces in one evening by criminals who looted their store unabated for over 5 hours. Thousands of business owners and employees have been displaced and their ability to make a living has been destroyed. This criminal behavior is far beyond property destruction and theft. It will cost people their ability to earn and feed their families.
I am sad.
