Often I welcome destruction of my material possessions. Accidentally, i practice it all the time.

Now, instead of whining on the internet and getting all huffy about gentrification , shouldn't we start smashing all the windows out of Kincora?

No, we passively sit by on our computers and "feit" it out, "mmmmm that's a good release". yeah, let's watch the cool (In/Visible) developers and the the cranes and wrecking balls they hire destroy the corridor. It's a spectacle after all. Yeah, I'll start it, because someone at least had some guts to graffiti jack in the Box "Feed your Fat ass3s".

next up SLUT, next up lab animals, next up Jillians sports bar and grill. Grill, Grill, Grill. Oh, and I'll be on the news tonight King 5, watch it!

Contact the SPD, even the FBI, and tip them. I mean, why not? Or at the absolute least, appoint someone to watch the intersections in question.
