korean business owners are being targeted in Philadelphia as dindunuffin's in large numbers have successfully elected a woman who represents their interests
apparently it was too hard to rob liquor stores so their representative is pushing a bill to ensure that the bullet proof glass comes down - her children are having trouble stealing you see

we can expect the return of rooftop koreans as the dindu crime wave picks up at which point i'm guessing she'll return for their guns

additionally since dindu's rank higher than korean's in the oppression olympics - korean's not being permitted to participate in the oppression olympics in the first place for doing too well on their own - liberals should experience no difficulty picking sides on this matter

Philadelphia, PA - Philadelphia councilwoman Cindy Bass has introduced a controversial bill that would require business owners to take down any bulletproof glass they have in their businesses, and not allow future installation.

The bill, known as the Stop and Go bill, is moving through city hall, and reads "No establishment shall erect or maintain a physical barrier."

Broad Deli is a local business on the corner of the 2200 block of North Broad. It has a wall of bulletproof glass separating its employees from customers.

"The most important thing is safety and the public's safety," Rich Kim, the owner of Broad Deli, told WTXF. His family has run the deli, which sells soda, snacks, meals, and beer by the can, for 20 years.

Kim said that he had the bulletproof glass installed after a shooting, and that it saved his mother-in-law from a knife attack.

"If the glass comes down, the crime rate will rise and there will be lots of dead bodies," he said.

Bass was more concerned about customer’s feelings, and said her constituents shouldn’t have to suffer the indignity of shopping through bulletproof glass.

She said that she is trying to put some type of control on these small stores, which she claimed sell booze, very little food, and caused a lot of trouble in her district.

"Right now, the Plexiglas has to come down,” she said.

Kim disagreed with Bass's characterization of businesses like the one he owns, and said when he called police about people loitering, the response time was usually slow.

He said he believed that he was being targeted as a Korean-American. Business owner Mike Choe agreed with him.

Choe, who runs a non-profit that supports Korean-owned businesses, said that he planned to raise $100,000 to fight the bill.

"I do think it's a bad bill that will endanger Korean Americans,” he said.

Bass said that she is fighting for her constituents.

Choe responded to Bass, and said the “bill targets Korean Americans."

Bass denied Choe’s allegation.

"Absolutely not. I find that offensive,” Bass said.

Do you think business owners should have the right to choose whether they want to install bulletproof glass in their businesses to protect employees? Tell us what you think in the comments below!

The only worthwhile part of the topic there is hopefully putting the squeeze on ghetto liquor licenses. There's no good reason to have 5 on every block, they're shitty employment with a low overall supply of jobs, etc. We know enough about the cyclical nature of alcoholism that this is only breeding a dependence culture for booze that has very little positive effect besides a few measly counter working cashier jobs.

I have no issue with "convenience stores" that sell on-par pricing sugary goods and overpriced groceries, I'd just like to see a reasonable limit on liquor sellers.

your need to connect "ghetto" to "black people" is pretty telling.

However the class of people is somewhat irrelevant, the population density is as much of a factor as abject poverty in my opinion. Whites, latinos, blacks, etc are all packed in like sardines. Over many generations of stagnant economic opportunities and the social norms of buying groceries from liquor stores with relatively few alternatives you form a culture that isn't helping anyone.

maybe the next time you're writing a hit-post on minorities you should consider fixing problems that hit your wallet instead of just demonizing them for a quick laugh. If i was racist scum like you I'd want the minorities off my payroll, instead of permanently there. Then again, maybe you just like to complain and aren't a man who fancies getting anything done.
