Ah, so inconvenienced rich white shoppers is more of a big deal than a cop gunning down a teenager with 15 bullets and then lying about it.
A teenage black life is worth less than a white consumer being delayed 30 minutes while shopping.
That's basically what's being said here... And sadly it proves BLM's point.

From the Chicago Tribune:o
So far this year, Chicago has seen at least 2,703 people shot, about 400 more than during the same period last year, according to a Chicago Tribune analysis of shootings data collected over the last two years. Through Monday morning, homicides have risen to at least 440, up from 397 a year earlier, according to Tribune data on city homicides.

There is something very awry when this sort of slaughter of AAs occurs and BLM does not have a peep to say about the lives being taken. Do BLM only when those lives are being taken by cops or does it extend to the thousands more who are being murdered by other blacks?
How often do you hear liberals - who are espousing the BLM movement - addressing the thousands of lives being taken by other than cops?
Apply a little logic here.
Yes, black on black violence is a problem.
Yes, Chicago crime and violence is a problem.
BUT...
Cop abuse of blacks and poor people is also a problem.
Pointing out black on black crime or violence in Chicago does not magically solve abusive behavior by police.
Agreed. And what is wrong with trying to get government from abusing its powers? You'd think conservatives would be all for BLM.

So where are the protests over the black on black crimes?
People have been talking about it forever. How old are you? Stop trying to deflect from an important issue.
B-S!
Where are the protests? Where are the liberal voices being raised at the senseless violence?
Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you? Don't you know how the media works? It carries the story of the day, and right now that's BLM. But a decades-ENDURING story has been urban crime.

Their agenda is all about demonizing white authority figures. The crimes committed by blacks don't fit the narrative.

The protesters have no right to keep other people who had nothing to do with the shooting from going about their daily activities. The police should warn these obnoxious thugs and, if they fail to disperse, bring out their clubs and Tazers.

why would the Bureau of Land Management protest a shopping area in a dense city? They typically deal with mineral rights and grazing lands
