HEB GIVETH SOME CHOW, AND HEB TAKETH AWAY BIG TIME

HEB GIVETH...



















AND HEB TAKETH AWAY...





(Ed.'s Note: Today is the day for the annual HEB Feast of Sharing public relations meal served to thousands of Brownsville residents. It is usually a public relations success, but coming in the wake of their abandonment of downtown Brownsville store where it has served as an anchor for the better part of 50 years, one meal in one day is at most a bittersweet event. 

City officials say that the excuse that some HEB managers made that historical district restrictions hindered the store from expanding are bogus because HEB never applied for the waivers or permits which could have allowed them to enlarge their operations.  After today's public relations fest, and after the turkey indigestion, the downtown will still lack a grocery store, traffic will slow down, and HEB will continue making money in other parts of the city. 

Meanwhile, elderly residents without transportation have to find a way to get their groceries and other domestic needs.)

The fault lies with the city historical district. There's very little left from the past because the city government didn't do anything to save the historical past of Brownsville downtown. Most of the buildings are built with asbestos and city government just want up scale bars? Brownsville is dying and maybe it's already DEAD.

Masochism is a medical condition. People who suffer from it can get pleasure from being hurt or humiliated by others

@1:01pm and 1`:04pm I suggest you go get some mental help its no longer funny. You may have to go back to san antonio they have several mental institutions, I know you are aware of that and they cater to your urgent needs.

If its a pill or whatever and its expensive I know some of your colleagues will pitch in to help you. Hey you could even pawn your lover El Perico.
Once we no longer see your stupid comments we'll know that you have been cured...TG

I think this says a lot about the lack of city government foresight. The mayor should have had a plan for this, knowing how it would obviously affect the downtown residents and the local businesses. The local businesses are going to be impacted by the lack of Matamorose residents coming across to spend their money. The attraction that HEB had was immense. But no, Trey only has his eyes on his own vested interests in his real estate and the citizens who can pay for his pricey pizza.

In Brownsville all it takes is one snoopy building inspector to waltz in and start pointing out a whole lot of violations of code and then offer to "look the other way" for some of the minor infractions for the grand mordida.

Staged crowd
Those are the needy
They are welfare recipients from local adult day cares that charge the medicare for the meal, pocket the money and feed the clients at the feast of sharing

So they closed the HEB down? Go to another store like we did when they closed Minimax, Glens, El Centro and some Lopez stores. If HEB did not need the sales from downtown, and it was not producing as a business should, why should they not close up. If the city officials don't try to do anything to stop their departure, obviously they do not care also. Just watch and see what they have planned for that building - another cantina downtown?

Oh, and I can remember that the HEB feeding was for those people who could not afford a turkey dinner for Thanksgiving. But now those that attend are driving around in Cadillacs, BMW, Infinities, Hummers, Mercedes and talking away in the ridiculous cell phones. Somewhere, we have lost our values of hard work and no give a-ways! I can also remember not being allowed to go to the police station to pick up a bag of oranges and apples and candy because that was for the poor kids that did not get anything at home. We got a bag of marbles and some paper dolls for the girls and we were happy. We did not go around begging for free stuff.

@2:31/2:52 I will stop my commenting when you stop your racist comments against the Mayor, gringos, meskins, hillbillies, etc...I know your vocabulary is limited, but you can go back to school and learn how to talk the right way. If you are mentally unstable, then take your own advice, and go to a mental institute where there are many in San Antonio. Your racist comments are not welcome and hopefully you will no longer be the racist Coco hillbilly jotito parrot anymore!
