“EVERYTHING IN MY STORE WILL BE REPLACEABLE,” one shop owner wrote, “while lives are being senselessly lost, on a way too regular basis, is the way bigger issue.” - NBCAsianAmerica

For Choi, the black and brown Americans who have long been abused by the police are not just victims of a racist, dysfunctional system but also close friends of his. “We have to look at the bigger picture,” he said. “Injustice and racial inequality just needs to stop.”

The support from neighbors, customers and complete strangers has, in fact, offset the anger that some owners had for rioters. As a Burmese refugee, Latt said he was arrested at age 13 for peacefully protesting against military brutality. So he understands and backs the Black Lives Matter movement. He realizes, too, that the help he’s received from others also stems from solidarity with the activists.

NBCAsianAmerica Very newsworthy NBC News....NOT!

NBCAsianAmerica Former St. Louis Metro Police captain David Dorn’s murder draws ZERO coverage from CNN & MSNBC

FrancesWangTV NBCAsianAmerica ahh the replaceable line of dialog, know what isn't replaceable, competition.

NBCAsianAmerica Seoul taco is racist and cultural appropriation

NBCAsianAmerica ❤️❤️❤️❤️

NBCAsianAmerica We don't know if this is a real sentiment. I fear that the violence is intimidating small-business owners to say anything required to avoid further abuse. If so, we shouldn't want that. Indeed,regardless the cause, violent political bullying, within a civilized country, is wrong.

NBCAsianAmerica Now watch as this silly individual is used & abused again by the very people who trashed his business. He'll be a target for users and losers.

NBCAsianAmerica You guys are seriously promoting vandalism and theft?!

NBCAsianAmerica CanadianPM RachelNotley This Asian American has lived through the hate and fear He is aware of the racism among police Not all cops are racist but But But in a job where you depend on your team or work cohort The team needs to feel that they can trust you

NBCAsianAmerica Great.. Let's loot some more.. Arson.. As well.. 👏🏻 👏🏻

NBCAsianAmerica ITS NOT REGULAR. ITS RARE AF. STOP LYING. TELL THE TRUTH. FFS

NBCAsianAmerica Not the customers, who will no longer come to your store, because no one in their right mind would go to big cities anymore. RIP to the cities, it will be a fast decline.

NBCAsianAmerica

NBCAsianAmerica it is a lot of insane

NBCAsianAmerica

NBCAsianAmerica not everyone can afford the same luxury. If you throw same question to 60 samples, I can assure you, only 5 will have the same opinion like this. Liberal propaganda at best.

NBCAsianAmerica and his insurance will pay for it, he is renting the building, the building owner is responsible for the damage to the building

NBCAsianAmerica Reminds me of North Koreans praising Kim Jong Un , and you ask yourself why are they praising him

NBCAsianAmerica Whats your point? That we all should be okay with looting and destruction?🤷🏽‍♂️

NBCAsianAmerica

NBCAsianAmerica Material things aren't important . Life Lives are you can never replace Someone you Loved 🙏❤

NBCAsianAmerica No words. Don’t forget to beat me cause I deserve it!

NBCAsianAmerica These people show solidarity to us and we will give it back by donating money to their funds so that they can repair their businesses and replace stolen goods.

NBCAsianAmerica Nice. I’ll be sure to visit and take what I want in the name of the oppressed.

NBCAsianAmerica Insurance money is one hell of a motivator.

NBCAsianAmerica Close to stop protest

NBCAsianAmerica

NBCAsianAmerica For where do I appear, the black clouds disappear and destiny becomes graceful and meek...... Who I am? 🍀37.7😂🐞🍀22🐞⚡️777⚡️🐞🍀😂😂😂😂😂😂

NBCAsianAmerica More propaganda. Most store owners will NOT be able to recover from the massive destruction & massive theft. Rioters are NOT 'peaceful protests'. Rioters are the greatest 'injustice' here.

NBCAsianAmerica These protests are asking for a commitment that every police force have policy, training and culture reviewed and ammended. Why are we not hearing these plans announced? This won't and shouldn't end until we have this!!

NBCAsianAmerica Great to have insurance. Do you also speak for those who unlike you, are ruined?

NBCAsianAmerica How long did you have to search to find a business owner to say this? It looks like they were close to going out of business anyway and, after hearing this inane statement, it is no wonder why.

NBCAsianAmerica Unarmed killing by police is down 2/3 since 2015. To 28 people. The trend is getting better too.

NBCAsianAmerica So many good ppl in the world need help. Please stop helping criminals.

NBCAsianAmerica 109,000 and counting.............

NBCAsianAmerica It’s amazing how every store y’all do is about business owners that are OK with their businesses being destroyed.. now do stories on the 95% of owners who are devastated by it

NBCAsianAmerica Come on Rootop Bois, you need a win.

NBCAsianAmerica

NBCAsianAmerica Sounds more like something NBCNews will say, are you sure it is a shop owner that said it. If so you manage to get to probably the only one..

NBCAsianAmerica Well nevermind then

NBCAsianAmerica ..please don't use insurance or government funds then please.

NBCAsianAmerica virtue signalling will not save you from the mob

NBCAsianAmerica Yeah this makes sense! Wth

NBCAsianAmerica These are the facts, which can be a silly thing if you actually look into it. The police fatally shot nine unarmed blacks and 19 unarmed whites in 2019, according to a Washington Post database, down from 38 and 32, respectively, in 2015.

NBCAsianAmerica Looters are not protesters. Two different groups. Most people get that.

NBCAsianAmerica Rape victims should be this apologetic.
