"Looters who hit L.A. stores explain what they did" by Maya Lau, Alejandra Reyes-Velarde, and Matt Hamilton, originally published on 5 June 2020 [Los Angeles, California, United States of America]

There is an optometrist on 4th in Santa Monica that just started up prior to the virus. Put everything they had into it and were hurting from the shutdown. These looters stole everything from them. Nothing was left . The store is completely wrecked beyond recognition. They are completely fucked. How does that help the cause?

Santa Monica was ripped apart and the whole area is boarded up ready for a hurricane. I was sad to move away, but I’m done with it. The police had 24 hours notice what was coming and they literally sat aside and watched the city get torn apart. I’m so pissed with the fucking looting.

My daughter had an infection and needed a prescription that took three hours to reroute because it was sent to my normal pharmacy that was closed because it was destroyed and no one was responding. This shit is fucked. Fuck the looters. They’re nothing but criminals. BLM is truth and those who commit those crimes or support them are simply stupid and hurting the movement and should get the fuck out of the way. Motherfuckers!
