Run down computer repair stores, tobacco and liquor stores, pawn shops, watch repair shops, hardware stores, donuts shops, bakeries, convenient stores (7/11, etc...) and so forth. How do these businesses stay open? I mean they are not where the money is. They are always in danger of being robbed. How do they do it?

I've always wondered the same thing.  In fact, how many one-off brake shops, A/C repair shops etc can there possibly be along one street right next to several massage parlors?

I would say a fair amount of the "shops" are fronts for illegal businesses. Not all or even most, but enough to explain the glut in the improverished parts of town.

When I was a kid we always went to the hood side of town to buy overpriced beer and liquor as minors because the stores didn't mind taking the chance for the extra profit.

There is one store in town where I live today that is notorious for selling beer and tobacco to underaged kids and they even sell single cigarettes if that's what you want. I'm sure they could put you in touch with the right individuals if you wanted something stronger as well. The kids around here call it the "Good Times" store. 

Lol

Makes sense. Probably great places for laundering money.

In many cases the store owners are immigrants from failed sub human standard primitive cultures that are just as bad if not worse than what we have in our Democrat Run Urban Congos.
These store owners aren't afraid to take the law into their own hands [or contract it out]  and it's their tough reputation that earns tremendous Street Cred with the Pavement Apes of the Urban Congos.
The possibility of deadly force is all that those Humanzees understand nsheet.

 
 
 

They want to get those welfare dollars.

You dont see this filth and disease


in China or Russia.


America is systemically broken and rotting.
 

A lot of them probably don’t have a choice

The craziness came to many of them

They didn’t go to the crazy
