Did you know there were riots in Green Bay, WI? Rioters smashed the front window of this newsstand with a street sign and stole a bunch of merchandise (window has now been fixed.) Manager had to rush back in at 1am, says she can NEVER recall anything like that happening before
Post office was smashed. Windows were “very special,” worker tells me: irreplaceable and as old as the building itself, 60+ years
Riot apparently started here. Worker tells me somebody shot the ice machine (?) and smashed everything up, before stealing tobacco products, etc. Apparently for these smaller-town riots, it’s easier to get the windows replaced quickly
Local newspaper was smashed. But don’t call it an attack on press freedom!!! That’s only when Trump tweets mean stuff about multi-millionaire CNN hosts
Other random establishments boarded up in the downtown area. (For what it’s worth, Green Bay is overwhelmingly white. Video from the night in question suggests rioters were predominantly white)
Church windows smashed
Here's a screenshot from inside the Marathon store during looting. Looks like both white kids and black kids, most of whom were too dumb to wear face masks
