"Tiffany Kenney, executive director of the Central Business Improvement District, said it could be months before business owners feel comfortable without protection over their windows. 'This is a giant setback for us,' Kenney said. 'They are fearful. There has been damage, there’s been violence and we’re back, way, way back.' Kenney said many are worried about the November elections and may leave their boards in place through the end of the year, which 'could be devastating for our Downtown.' Several businesses had donated plywood painted by local artists to the business district for a future art exhibit, but Kenney said many of those are again covering windows.... After the windows of Papa John’s Pizza were smashed, one of the protesters told an employee, 'These people don’t represent our movement.' 'Well, I’m sorry, but they’re part — they’re with you,' the employee responded...."From "Downtown merchants begin to fear losing all of 2020 as protests, destruction continue" (Wisconsin State Journal).
It's so awful to hit these businesspeople when they are down — not only from earlier riots but from the months of shutdown from the coronavirus. It's so disordered to believe that these people deserve to be targeted, as if they are not human beings. Meanwhile, the young students are flowing into the city, taking up residence in the dorms, dealing with the prospect of virtual classrooms, and they can't have the pleasure of the excitement and beauty of downtown Madison. They don't even get the colorful murals that dressed up the damage a couple months ago. No, we've got new plywood now, blankly expressive of what has really happened — mindless destruction.
Here's the video of the colloquy at Papa John's. The Wisconsin State Journal didn't quote the part where the employee said, "Do you want Trump to be elected?"
