I don’t have a Google account but I guess 5 star reviews would help him
Wait, are they smol business? Maybe like a franchise then?
It seems they have 300 locations & their parent company is GameStop.
wiki/Micromania-ZingWell a franchise store is still a small business
Send in the roof Koreans!
Deep cut!
on a society level i’d rather the dudes store get looted than constant school shootings but i acknowledge that is selfish
on a personal level if i was him i’d want a few buddies and ARs for sure
not sure how you reconcile that as a society, maybe address the issues that caused the original problem
maybe address the issues that caused the original problem
I don’t want to see another gun ban because I know they don’t work. I’d rather see the root causes of violence addressed. If you address poverty, unemployment, homelessness, and mental illness with robust social programs and treat them as the systemic public health issues that they are, bans are unnecessary because crime will be obsolete.
Banning guns with a law, enforced by police to whom the law does not apply, won’t stop gun violence; it will further entrench the police state.
If simply having guns lead to gun violence, then other countries with higher rates of gun ownership than the US would have the same problems with gun violence.
I’d love to know what countries you think have higher rate of gun ownership than the states. Maybe look that one up?
the only ones close have much stricter access laws
these dudes be making up shit to justify muricas bullshit
It’s not selfish, just idiotic. There’s no minimum violence bar we need to hit, it’s okay to be against both.
no shit but you can’t have both guns and no guns
Ah yes, we either get riots or school shootings, no other options.
? now you’ve wondered into another claim i never made
enjoy the strawman by yourself
on a society level i’d rather the dudes store get looted than constant school shootings
you can’t have both guns and no guns
It’s not my strawman, it’s yours.
what strawman? do you even know what the word means? my whole point was wanting guns as defense and not having to deal with schools shootings?
it can’t be a strawman when it’s been my own argument from the start
there has been no other engagement by me
the rest is just you rambling
lord help you if this is normal for you
Cant happen when it all goes digital
Because owning nothing is better? Fuck your logic.
Ownership is still possible with digital games. Check out Good Old Games as an example.
… At least we got a bad ass straight out of an anime photo out of this?
Bro was summoning the power of kakarot
At least 1 decent person trying to help him after he was attacked. The rest are just terrible.
Tbh the amount of bystanders astounds me, like I cannot imagine being there, seeing that guy flying kick someone with their back turned and not immediately grabbing and pummeling him.
This is coming from someone who doesnt think rioting as protest is wrong–but it’s really obvious why the videogame store is being looted/vandalized instead of things that actually matter.
Anarchism in lemmy posts is some utopia while praxis looks a lil bit different
Pray tell how this has anything to do with self-determined decentralized communal organizations, or did you just ask ChatGPT “what is anarchism” before this post
Thanks for sharing your conservative reactionary take…
Ok. Then this is what happens during the glorious revolution. After the revolution, contrary to the last X times, we will have:
self-determined decentralized communal organizations
That’s just tribes with extra steps.
wtf. Why are they attacking him???
Could people take out their anger on the people causing rather than their peers? What kind of piece of shit do you need to be to not just ruin your peers life but also a whole movement by giving it a bad rep…
Welcome to crab mentality. Humans are scared, dumb, fucking creatures, man.
I forget the exact details but in Milwaukee the cops shot a black kid and in response the community… burned down a gas station and hair salon in their own neighborhood.
There was a clip of a woman being interviewed begging people to stop destroying their own neighborhood. Something like “go to the suburbs and burn their shit down!! We need our weaves!”
Idk. A lot of unfocused rage and anger will take itself out on the first thing it can find.
The people responsible for this are just there for the violence, destruction and looting. They use the legit protests as a cover. They don’t care about the people or the movement
Maybe they should be attacking government buildings.
They did that too.
Isn’t Zing a huge brand. Owned by GameStop/electronics boutique?
Doesnt really scream small business owner.
Maybe it’s a franchise, making this guy technically a small business owner? Not familiar with zing btw
Could be I guess. Hard to know cause they’d probably never make it public.
Though there are particular people who would refer to this as a “small business owner” and not just labeling it “looters”.
My dude needs some rooftop Koreans.
As, so this is the shining example of protest so many of you have been insisting that Americans must replicate over the last couple years?
Can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard, “you need to protest like the French” on here. How righteous they are indeed.
The protests stem from underfunded schools. The US tried to sell ad space on a public execution. The countries are not comparable.
Its disgraceful to see the French doing this. The US should have done something ages ago.
Oh come on, you are kidding, right?
Amongst all the minions of protesters there are a few assholes that just want to riot and fight and you call that
shining example of protests
Of course its not, atop pretending it is
Of course its not, stop pretending it is
Yeah, that’s literally my point.
Fuck that coward who kicked him from behind.
as we’ve learned in other posts these are justifiable acts of the unheard and not commie agitators who fancy a rumble and some free shit
i hope they all get the education they so passionately want
What a piece of shit. This is not speaking truth to power, this is playing right into their hands and is hurting the legitimate protestor’s cause.
Burn the banks, smash the Starbucks, loot the Dior Store. But leave the small shops in peace.
If dissent is not heard, it must be felt.
These are the people who are endlessly blasting my country on lemmy. XD Fucking clowns
