I want justice for George Floyd. I don't agree with destroying the community he lived in. Click here if you would like to help those in need.
I'm still trying to wrap my brain around the massive destruction and complete anarchy in our city during the last week of May. You can see all the blogs in this series by going here.
Often on the weekend, we will grab a bite of fast food before heading off to wherever. Since fast food places we normally go to have been either vandalized or burned down, I thought I'd go take pictures instead.
Arby's, like Wendy's, which I blogged the other day, burned to the ground. The work crew has been really busy during the past week. The building is already demolished and the rubble is sorted into piles by type of material.
The top image today is the "Y" and apostrophe from one of their signs.
It's truly bizarre to see a flat slab where a restaurant used to be. And also bizarre to see their ornate railing, still intact (albeit a little worse for wear) in the middle of the flat slab.
They covered up the sign to make sure you know that they are closed. This is the other half of the flat slab. Interestingly enough, a lot of the tiles in the kitchen area are still in place. That's what I call some durable tiles!
More flotsam and the skeleton of a chair. Many a Sunday afternoon we would gather here with family for lunch.
In this digital age, one can follow a number of different independent streaming news sources during riots. I watched Arby's burn, along with at least 30 thousand other people, courtesy of Unicorn Riot.
