How can card shops survive the rise of armed thefts?
Sentry guns with automatic weapons.Claymore mines pointed at the door.Particularly valuable packs wired with explosives, detonated remotely or by proximity/distance from store.
>>97381471Man would've been dead the second he tried at my old LGS. Owner open carried and had kids waiting at home lmao
If you have that much value stored in your shop, you can afford security
>>97381471>Boston, Los Angelese, and SeattleLOL
>>97381673I'm not sure why there's always so much seething about the cities that pay for the rest of the country.
>>97381612I'm glad someone pointed this outAnyway, joke is on that nigger, all you have to do is browse craiglist if you want pokemon shit it's not even expensiveI found a guy selling 22 steam siege packs for $85 bucks like an hour ago
>>97381673They get what they deserve.
>>97381747Speculation doesn't pay for anything. Empty cities full of suffering and corporate headquarters.
>>97381866It's always strange to see people suckling on the teat of these cities cursing them so.
>>97381905No, I'm talking about tax revenues VS spending.These large cities are the only thing keeping every other part of america (and by extension much of the world, given how much we pay for food and security worldwide) afloat.Almost every state in america is in the red financially, and reliant upon californian and new yorker gibs.
>>97381907I don't have to suck on anything though? Please keep your fantasies to xirself
>>97381939Unless you're actually living in those cities, I'm afraid you're sucking on their teat, no matter where you live.Who do you think pays for the world-wide grain dole you're enjoying?
>>97381747Because centralized living like that is counter-natura, but you headless chickens can't stop yourself from living in 30 square feets in a floor 42And everyone else have to pay for your centralized contaminationSmog is a city only thing
>>97382090Actually, the cities are paying for YOUR retardation, if you look at the numbers.This is why they have such influence- they pay for you to live.
>>97381957>Who do you think pays for the world-wide grain dole you're enjoying?>C-California totally grows your f-food chudYeah no their nuts and avocados don't actually feed shit nationwide.
>>97382117Ah, so you are unfamiliar with the concept of paying for something.You see, paying is when you exchange something for something else. In this case, this means that california is not PRODUCING the grains, it is merely offering something (money) for them.Or rather, it's offering this money to the american government, which then heavily subsidizes the farmers to such an extent that america basically feeds the world now.
>>97382147>Ah, so you are unfamiliar with the concept of paying for somethingCorrect. I get by on a career that consists solely of robbing convenience stores and running back innawoods afterwards
>>97382200I'm afraid state level economics may sound a bit alien to you, then.
>>97381471Back in 1997 did you think this was the future Pokemon has in store?
>>97381923"a place full of accountants has presented things so that it's a net donor where that's convenient, news at eleven"perhaps next we can analyze the strange phenomenon of every Hollywood movie losing money
>>97382751I don't really care where they make their money, as long as they continue subsidizing us.I just find it strange the amount of vitriol have for them when they rely entirely upon them.It's like being righteously against child labor while wearing exclusively sweat shop clothes.
>>97381747Envy and inferiority complex.
>>97381471>ayo. gimme dem charazards, nigga.
