Looting

But they can afford liquor and cigarettes...

I don't see people in that picture.
I see thugs in a decades long Democrat stronghold, so let it burn.

right?? let 'em reap what they sow

Coming soon to a town near you... I've read stories about Argentine doctors and lawyers mugging people to feed their families.... It will start with the thugs, but when everyone runs out of money - anyone can become a criminal to feed themselves.

Quit watching the TV. It's not going to come to that, as much as the bureaucrats and TV talking heads would love it.

I know someone, personally, who is leaving California because he can't feed himself. He sold everything he could, and has just enough money for gas to make it. He's abandoning his furniture, electronics, gave away his pets...I think he's leaving with a laptop and a bag of clothes. I know others who are struggling to feed themselves.

There are six businesses within walking distance of my home that are hiring right now. There is opportunity in any crisis and much of this crisis is completely unnecessary. Gavin Newsome should be strung up on the nearest lamp post for he did to California. I hope your friend makes it through this with a minimum of pain.

I hope not. The good thing is - he won't have been in the state long enough to have established residency by November.

It's too bad your government isn't looking after you guys as much as it could. Canadians are being well taken care of, those who need it, I'm sure there will be a few that will try and abuse, but since it's through CRA, they'll get em

The thing is - most of us don't want the government looking after us. Just leave us alone, and we'll take care of ourselves.

Good luck with that.

I don't need them at all. I grow food, raise livestock, I have a shitload of guns/ammo and my business has increased during the shutdown. I'll be fine - I worry about my neighbors, others in my family, their neighbors...

People call you a kook for doing the kinds of things that I do - and suddenly I'm not so much of a kook when I'm the only person with a steady supply of food.

When everyone is a 'have-not', being a 'have' becomes very dangerous.
