There are some very tough parts of Tampa which have a long history of crime and ethnic tension.

Looters and rioters usually only attack the businesses which they would be going to on a day-to-day basis. Mainly they act like an unruly mob with a few people taking advantage of the situation to steal things from these local stores.

My late younger brother lived in some of these Tampa neighborhoods and I was often very relieved when driving out of them. Same with some of these places in St. Petersburg, FL where he also resided at times.
