    Let's be honest. The majority of "rioters" are just opportunists looking to get something for nothing, a percentage of them are anarchists that jump at any opportunity to anonymously destroy , a percentage of them are thrill seekers and likely the absolute minority are rioting for a cause.
    i agree with this, and have specifically called the looters opportunists and assholes, at an individual level. i dont think anybody here is justifying Rioter A for smashing a window, rioter B for stealing a TV, etc

    but the reasons for why these riots break out to begin with are deeper than "some guy just wants free ." as long as those reasons are ignored, neglected, or inadequately addressed, they'll keep happening. its the same with crimes of theft outside of riots. people dont go around justifying the actual theft, but there are specific reasons why these crimes are more prevalent in certain areas

    i didnt take that passage of scary black man justifying the individual actions. the crimes were referred to as incontestable, deplorable. he called it sin. he called it a distortion of protest, etc. it's not excuse making at the individual level

    White people with guns stand peacefully in a government building and are said to be attacking it. Rioters burning and stealing property are said to be engaged in public dissent that should be understood.

    Some imbalanced going on.

    white people are celebrated for the boston tea party.

    where there's a legitimate grievance, unlike being told to wear a mask during a pandemic, we can share notes. the imbalances that black people face are not comparable to what the white people felt in michigan, imo.

    You won't stop til America is another South Africa.

    Just as violent and just as poor. That is why America is united against you. We riot in the voting booths.
    Yes we know, you advocate murdering blacks. You don't have to keep saying it, we all know where you stand.

    Now extrapolate that bias to every situation involving race and you'll have a significant portion of the build up for a riot. But everyone will act like the build is full of injustice.

    With no death penalty he should get life.

    Hopefully he gets shanked in prison when he finds out he's the nigger there.

    I'm out, taking a break. Getting too emotionally involved in something that isn't around me. Just have to avoid social media and news. Places like this allow me to avoid arguing on outlets like Facebook or with family members. And I am grateful for that. Thank you for debating with me.

    The thing is most of those murders come from the male half of that 13%. If you add age to the filter you'll get a really daunting picture.

    Now remove race and add socioeconomic status instead.

    no, i'm saying that often times the riots that break out are understandably the result of long-held grievances that reach a tipping point. that's not an endorsement of individuals' behavior, but rather an explanation and acknowledgment of why this happens.

    what do you say, derp?

    are looters good or is the boston tea party bad?

    The foundational reason for Dems open borders agenda. It's easy to divide people by race. These people have no attachment to America. Anything to washout dissenting points of view by the "diversity" crew.

    Looting bad. If I'm giving you credence, I was studying this some time back and there's a case for the Boston Tea Partiers being impetuous IIRC.

    Nobody is killing the rioters. Save this for when that starts happening.
