    Let's protest because a bar is opening up where there used to be a bar!

    Doug's got it down.
    Eventually, every new business that opens up (i.e., "a bar"), will replace some older previous business (i.e. "a bar")
    That's just business. I mean, what kind of retarded landlord would rent their space to anybody who wasn't going to open a bar?
