that turned into fiery, violent clashes this week. But many black-owned restaurants that sustained severe damage are just as focused on amplifying cries for racial justice as they are on rebuilding.
"I've never felt this before, the mixed feelings that I have," Hailie said of the emotional toll of seeing his lifelong dream after 20 years in this country turned to ashes."To come down to this, believe me, is just heartbreaking." "We were very sad to see what happened that day. We totally understand the anger of the people who are out there for justice," said Abaineh."If this is what it takes to bring justice to unfairly treated [people] all these years, then we're fine, we'll be OK. It's just the business that we lost and can rebuild in the future."
Hailie said Bolé"was more like a home than just a business," especially for their diverse neighbors, who have rallied to support the beloved restaurant. "We were staying open during the pandemic because so many people needed our help," Abaineh said, adding that they gave discounts and even free meals to many local families."We are more concerned for what's going on in the country right now. It's very sad to see all that chaos and businesses that lost a lot, but it's beyond us."
If the land is spoiled the economy down will it help?
Jungle justice. Bad score
So he’s not going to collect the insurance? 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you , sir. We will help you rebuild soon.
I'm OK with SHOOTING the ANIMALS burning the buildings too.
Why don't you interview the owners who are not ok with it?
Fool. 🤦🏼♀️
stupidity..!!!!
Maybe somebody that dumb shouldn’t rebuild. The cops were fired immediately as are all charged in Floyd’s murder. That is swift justice. We don’t take people out and hang them so this is about as quick as justice can happen
That's like self mutilation. That's the mindset white people have brainwashed black folks with. No one cares if you destroy your own. They want to protect their materialism. Their stuff is more important than your life! And Floyd has his justice. It's how about future Floyds.
Bla.cks live matter m0vement is fake....they destroy properties of white and black owners.
Thought process: 'COVID has destroyed my business. It will never recover.' burns restaurant down, collects insurance check, moves on
Must have a good insurance policy....
If he is okay with them burning down the building he shouldn't file the insurance claim to rebuild.
Really? WOW what morons
Horse shit!! So just burn down businesses for whatever cause we want to be heard, it’s ok. GTFOH.
Cover all black deaths, not just what fits your narrative.
The MEDIA EXPLOITS THIS TO CONTINUE THE CHAOS
This is very sad
He must have insurance. The old black woman who wishes she was dead because she has no where to get food or any essentials, doesn't matter. Let's hold out the successful business man who may profit from his store being burned down because of how great his insurance is.
All lives matter
🤯🤯🤯🤯 Stop. Jsut stop with your FakeNews
Human life is more important then a building you people can’t go around killing black people for no reason because it’s a sport for you get out of here with that bullshit. I matter black lives matter and everybody else comes behind it.
You just sold your soul..😔😔
Wow that is Very magnanimous of him, in reality if was wrong because if it was your business would you burn it, No, just like the Justice we seek puts others in our Shoes, the same applies to innocent establishments in harm's way, Eye have been here before
Time to boycott some MSM!!! Also to require unbreakable-bullet proof glass store fronts & doors! First 2-3 stories. Lower ins. rates and tax write-offs? THINK ABOUT IT!
No no no that is wrong it is Criminal you want to protest a criminal act with more criminal Acts that makes no sense two wrongs never make a right
Now do the thousands who don't agree to destroying their life.
I mean if they burn down Disneyland if it means justice for George - we are ok with that right?
Meet the stupidest people alive. Unless there is something Florence sinister and nefarious and they’re being bought off to be that flippant about it - and incite more destruction by saying that. There I did your journalism for you fake news.
Where’s the outrage over all the cops being shot, stabbed, ran over, etc? Do Blue Lives not matter too American sees right thru your hypocrisy
Here's a guy who's business was going under before all of this happened.
If your home was burned down, you would probably change your statement.
Until he realizes his insurance won’t cover the damage. Check back with him soon.
Violence is wrong, destroying others lives and properties to get ones aim accomplish, is being selfish, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther king, Mahatma Gandhi , let's remember them !
Republicans protest with weapons in full view..
Isn't that special. A special idiot.
There is a cure for HSV and HIV,i was suffering frm the virus until i met a Herbal Doctor that CURED me within 2 weeks and u might need his help too on Drizazaherbalcurehomegmail.com or whatsapp +2348103355314
Can’t get much more stupid than this.
They must have a huge insurance policy
Wow
Ludicrous
That’s his choice. And he’s making it after the fact. There’s a lot of business owners that were totally fine with justice for George Floyd, and had a perfectly reasonable expectation that their business need not be ransacked...by people that don’t care about justice.
What a shame then, because these buildings and businesses have been burned for nothing. No justice will come out of any of this.
Can't blame them for thinking this way. Historically, peaceful protests in America have consistently failed over and over again in bringing any meaningful change or reform.
Appreciate your patience!
THE DEEP STATE WILL NOT WIN THIS BATTLE! KEEP POKING THAT BEAR!
No. You can support the protest but you should never support the destruction of businesses. You don't have to agree with both!
The troops should be guarding businesses--not harassing and abusing protesters.
CASHED OUT INS MONEY, OF COURSE THEY DONT CARE
The owner is probably running an insurance scam.
complete fakenews
Have at ‘er pitter patter. Your insurance company may have other ideas though.
MrBeastYT give this man something because this man is ready to sacrifice his business just to get justice for George Floyd . I believe he deserves something . BlackLivesMatter JusticeForFloyd George_Floyd
GeorgeFloyd had fentanyl in his system the CRACKHEAD
You’re the enemy of the people
More Marxist/ Muslim Brotherhood Propaganda
BS
OK with you? burn down your own... but it is not okay with others.
Wow!
The vast majority of business owners & people in these destroyed communities DO NOT FEEL THIS WAY. Looting, murder, arson, violent attacks & overall criminal activity IS DESTROYING these cities. This happened in Newark, NJ in 1967, & NOTHING CAME BACK!! Zero!
Way to go ABC... keep reporting Bullshit!!!
ABC pushing insanity
BUT.......deep deep DEEP inside him........he is opening a crate of WHOOP ASS!!!!!!!!
BLM Black Looters Matter
This is such an irresponsible post, you guys are glorifying the destruction of businesses? Wow
His right to say it and feel it. In a year, he'll figure out he was wrong and is now allowed to go burn and destroy another's building and business.
.What comes next!!!
Thats the same narrative from the HongKong protestors. How ironic. And we praised and encouraged it then.
