Parkchester Store Owner Takes Care of Neighborhood Shoppers by Stockpiling TOILET PAPER.


LINK to article: https://nypost.com/2020/03/20/bronx-shops-flush-with-toilet-paper-while-big-stores-wiped-clean-amid-coronavirus-outbreak/

This store owner tries to serve people in his Parkchester neighborhood---however, seemingly to the exclusion of others.

Right or wrong, this is what this particular shop owner feels he needs to do in his community.

Do you agree or disagree?

How would you feel if you walked into this store and couldn't buy one or two rolls of toilet tissue because the owner didn't recognize you as a resident of the neighborhood?

Article even quotes this Parkchester shop owner as saying "I'm not going to sell [toilet tissue] to anyone from Queens."

(That's crazy. How would he even know a customer is from Queens? Or any other borough?)

Could you be objective and say the shop owner actions are reasonable considering the current coronavirus pandemic and communities having to do what best for themselves in order to help in the overall battle to contain it?

Or would you say the shop owner is dead-wrong denying anybody from paying for one or two rolls of toilet paper, under any circumstance?

Let me point out this is the case of a single Parkchester-based shop owner who happens to be featured in this New York Post article.

Another store owner from Castle Hill is quoted saying "hopefully people come in and buy [our toilet paper] then business will go up."
