A Flash of Fashion Levity

I don't know about y'all, but my local news seems to focus way more on vandalism and looting than on peaceful demonstration. So the other night (pre-curfew day), they had a story on looting in a nice shopping suburb: Neiman-Marcus, Rayban, another upscale place or two. And Clark's???? Yes, THAT Clark's. Looting for Grandma? I think they just broke the windows; I didn't see any shoe boxes or shoes strew around. I can just hear the argument: We only have ten minutes. Why the heck did you break in there??? What were you thinking???

Lol. Clark’s hurt my feet. I learned that as a kindergartener. Absolutely last place I’d hit up

In the city nearest here there has been looting downtown for three nights running. But last night, some cars pulled up to the suburban Target outside of town. There were no protests near there; it is a strip mall. But they got out of their cars and broke the windows. Of course, the alarms went off, and because there was no protest, no commotion, no one else around, they were caught.

Not that looting is funny, and not that the reasons people are angry enough to break windows are funny, but the idea that just because there were demonstrations in the next town over they thought they could randomly break into a store after closing with their own cars in the parking lot is so foolish it is almost funny.
