Saying you can afford to do something, then actually doing it are two different matters. I can afford to remodel my kitchen, and it drives my wife nuts I never do it. My guess is the store never gets rebuilt. For the sole fact big box stores in cities are rarely profitable and difficult to staff. You might see a new store open in light of the riots, but it will be well outside city limits. Put up a plaque and have a ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating the riots, etc..
Meanwhile, here is some breaking news:

Protesters and vandals/looters are for the most part different groups.
The destruction of downtown Seattle last night had fuck all to do with George Floyd and had everything to do with with the same hard left, anti-capitalist, anti-America/anarchists from Oregon we've been dealing with for over 20 years.
In before the rational party with the guns starts shooting the emotional rioting party and the emotional rioting party claims to be victims.

What a fucking hypocrite.
And bottom line that’s the “big joke” that most people don’t get yet. Everyone is in favor of demonstrations. No real human being looks at that murder and says those cops shouldnt to do jail time and lots of it.
Most people will take that forward and say they are in favor of riots and looting. Then it impacts them personally and then all of a sudden it’s a serious issue caused by criminals that needs to be stopped.
Just be consistent. Ask yourself what you would do if 100 “protestors” showed up on your street. If the answer is you wouldn’t care if they burnined your house to the ground, stole all your shit and put your family in harms way then by all means support the lawlessness. Don’t all of a sudden change your tune because what you thought was hundreds of miles away is now down the street.
Put me on team stop the riots at “most” cost. I’d care very much.
Cops should be in jail .
This happen to me yesterday. I thought if there were riots in San Diego that they would be in downtown San Diego. Well the shit popped off in La Mesa which is very close to where I live. They fucked up my neighborhood Target, burned down banks etc etc. It became a very different experience for me when shit was going down so close to where I live.
thank god all these totally legitimate accounts who make a handful of posts a year here are finally stepping up to let us know how justified the police response has been.

Obama justified the Ferguson riots and the anti-police sentiment.
This ended a 23-year streak of declining crime in the US.
Nothing says "leadership" like telling an entire race of people that your own country's police are racist and have been out to get them all this time.
