Looting

Nothing, it is deplorable. If there is any fight it is against the paramilitary organization, also known by the name of a police force. Peaceful protests are the best way to handle the situation, then again some people do not care about the situation and just want free crap.

Whenever I lose someone, breaking into a store or another person's home helps me focus and work through my grief. Plus I get some really nice stuff out of it, so it all works out.

I'm entitled to do it...you know. I'm the victim. I'm the one who lost the loved one, or the friend, or the guy I didn't know but was the same color as me.
 
I feel so sorry for the black community which did not want to see this kind of violence. It only perpetuates the stereotypes and makes people understand why police profile. It is almost like a self fulfilling prophecy
 
They should have done what the right Milita nuts did at Bundy where they sat with shotguns pointed at the police. Can you imagine if black people did that?

I think in this instance, the shooting and the riots stand together.

I think after the shooting, the narrative was set that the police represent all whites in society: oppressive and actively against black people. That is what's constantly advocated by black leaders.

So, the black activists rally to protest "white people", in the form of this white police officer. I would make the statement of "if the shooter wasn't white and death wasn't black, this wouldn't be protested" as a near statement of fact. Thus, it's not about police brutality, it's about race.

Then, I think the black community protestors identify themselves as rogue individuals against the system, and thus, anything in the system becomes "white" as well. This includes corporate stores, businesses, etc.

Hey, if the "white man" is going to "[Unwelcome language removed]" you, you might as well "[Unwelcome language removed] them back".

I think everything here, in the eyes of the protestors, is to lash out against white people.

You are right on in that post. That's what happens when outside agitators come in and stir up the trouble. The innocent people end up looking bad. That's why I don't understand why more of them don't speak up and condemn them. Is the press not letting them speak, or are they afraid to speak up?

No, they shouldn't have sat and pointed shotguns at the police. Are you completely nuts? Yeah, I know.....satire. But we are talking about a lot of innocent people here, and comments like that don't help.

Of course, we can't talk about this without making random political jabs.

At least stay on the same planet Spam.

Well when you look at it did the businesses end up in any different shape. Inventory and money are all gone, workers turned out and the company is out of business. Hell at least the place that gets burned to the ground by street looters gets an insurance pay out.out of it. In Mitt's case, he the looter would pocket that money too.

I think you should start a Mitt post. This one is about Ferguson, Missouri.

I agree that you're a bit obsessed with some random Mitt Romney issue here.

Meanwhile, you THINK you're throwing something in my face, but I didn't vote for Mitt, so you're sadly mistaken.

The original response was to the top post question it had nothing to do with you.

Well some kinds of looting and destruction of businesses in this country is not only approved of, it can also be so well recieved that it gets you the nomination for the Republican party.

Hey with the way the GOP fawned over Mitt's looting. Maybe their 2028 candidate will be guy with a tee shirt tied over his face and a exiting a broken shop window with a pack of skittles.
