DD, pretty sure this shit happens in communist countries, or whatever you're advocating.
Riotin' and lootin' is fun until your mom catches you

No shit. I've had to buy 8 pairs of shoes (between 2 kids - 14 & 11) so far in 2015. They keep outgrowing them. Imagine having to buy them at regular retail price.Quote:

Do violent protests and burning good places down necessarily make us all want to say, "Hey, we really should help this great group of people that have been kept down"? No. Are more people paying attention to the problem they face? I'd say so.
should be the mayor
the one ya got sucks
As a Baltimore City resident, these fucktards burning and looting shit does NOT help the situation. The city needs people. People who pay taxes and who make the city a better place. People who are pondering buying a house in Baltimore are probably thinking, "do I want to live in a city like that?". Taxes pay for services; services which, among other things, help the poor and downtrodden. A vibrant population of all races will work together to better the city...I have seen so much progress in the past 18 years in which I have been a resident of this city. This rioting and looting is only going to hurt the most vulnerable in this city. The business owner who is taking a chance by opening shop in a less than desirable neighborhood is actually doing a GOOD thing. That nice CVS store that burned? It was an improvement over the empty lot or boarded up shithole that was there before it. The poor who don't have a car won't have to pay for bus fare to get their medicines or a bit of food or school supplies for their kids. Now they are forced to do that again.Quote:

This belongs in polyass.
Wonderful Mayor out there.
What no one expected is what Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake admitted in a press conference on Sunday: that she asked the Baltimore Police Department to “give those who wished to destroy space to do that.”
Now that's leadership. White House here she comes!!
I can help:
1) I'm aware of that.Quote:

The problem is that the bad apples are 100% protected by the "good apples", which makes them all scum IMO.Quote:

anyone supporting the status quo and the continued consolidation of power is a fucking fascist or a fucking moron
This is going to keep happening until the white people get so sick of it they start reacting by slashing police budgets (or doing something else in that vein) and eventually the cops will be forced to police themselves and cut this shit out. I think 98% of cops are good people and there's a solid 2% that are power-hungry psychopaths. Why the 98% don't sack up and put an end to this type of behavior that makes them all look bad I really can't understand.
For those filled w/ rage and for whom America is dystopia, there's always Canada. Or someplace warmer like Mexico. Why stay and be angry? It's not healthy.

I am just waiting for the day when a small business owner and their family (thinking Asian market) kill about 50 looters trying to fuck their store up. I would be heavily armed if I lived or had a business in Baltimore. If people are all pissed at the cops, why torch a CVS? Go torch a cop station to get your point across.
why torch a CVS? why not torch a police station?
hmmmmm, maybe because police!
CVS are price gougers and community exploiters.... nobody cares about CVS or some cash cow old folks home built in the ghetto to increase profits
Also, free drugs
Ding ding ding.Quote:

I was going to say the same thing. The damage from this riot isn't even a pimple on the ass of what a bunch of rich white assholes did... and all of the people who got screwed couldn't just file some insurance claim, either.Quote:

They aren't poor though and the most fantastic trick I've maybe ever seen is the one where the rich and powerful convinced the middle class that they too could be rich if they just work a little harder and that poor non-white people are the actual problem behind all things in America.Quote:
