I usually don´t post in these threads, i´m not american and kinda feel like i have nothing to add, but..
1. Police are murderers. George was murdered.
2. People had it. This entire situation is on the powers that be (the city, state, and government).
3. So, riot, loot, burn shit down. I´m in full support, if the powers that be actually cared, this and similiar situations could have been prevented.
Also, shit that construction building is going down.

Lmao. What's insurance for?
People should burn the whole fucking thing to the ground. You think any business is worth one black life? Fuck out of here.
One black life is worth more than all businesses in America.
What did Target and those other small businesses do to them? And no, they didn't bother looking into seeing who owned said business and decided to loot based on what would bring on the biggest change. These are opportunists looking for free shit. Pure and simple. I guess looting Target and burning down AutoZone will show those cops and bring change. There are other ways.
If you're willing to go to jail for stupid shit like looting and destroying property, why the hell is that murdering cop home or that police station still standing. Nope, those places stay untouched and flame free.
Enabling is already happening. Media makes up stories when they don't have any, same as cops. America elected a white supremacist. Again, this is going to add more fuel to the sun of systemic issues America has? Again, its pearl clutching. This riot proves that people are sick of this shit. Because that whole nonsense strategy you have in your mind, hasn't achieved fuck all in your entire lifetime.
Funny you mention Blue Lives Matter...
That was a direct response to a peaceful protest. Same with Colin taking a knee.
Yes. Or you could do what most people have done in this thread is to mourn the life of the person that was murdered.
While others get to call me a concern troll and a shitposter because I was simply concerned about property damage or other people being hurt/killed? But fine, I'm now taking up way too much attention out of this important thread anyway.
Another black guy lynched in the street and people are crying about property that can be easily replaced.
Things burning down is likely if the number of protestors attacking firefighters grows.
Screw the police, but no one should be attacking first responders.
Don't give any leeway. It isn't one black life, it's many, and the people have finally had e-fucking-nough.
Fuck peaceful protesting imo. Bet y'all think the civil rights movement was just everyone standing in a circle holding hands. I have family that was alive back then and people fucking died assholes. What you think MLK died and ended racism forever like this is the fucking Bible? Grow up.

Considedring the protestors are attacking firefighters trying to put out the fires, how about you not. Shits messed up
If any local biz gets hurt I can almost guarantee some very strong local or even national crowdfunding or local support will get them back and running, especially if there is even a hint of actual justice and change beyond the firings.
MetroPCS on fire now too, and an under construction apartment building.
I want you to read up on civil unrest and the civil rights movement then come back here to discuss your findings.
If these fires get out of control they need to start arresting protestors for obstructing firefighting efforts
The correct answer in this case is "nothing"
Your initial comments were roundly chastised and for good reason. That should've been the point where you said nothing else and went on with the rest of your night. Nobody here has any interest in seeing you attempt to defend yourself in a topic that has nothing to do with you personally.
Yeah I cant deal with my friends that just respond. LOL looting all these people want is a free TV

And as suggested, shutting up to avoid filling up any more of this topic.
you are wishing harm on people (possibly death given how police behave) to protect empty buildings
cool
Maybe be more concerned with the issues that lead people to lash out like this. Would be infinitely more helpful.
Knocking down a big box is one thing assuming no one gets hurt, you cool with arson and detroying as many buildings as possible with people potentially in them?
You recognize the institution sucks, but will defend that institution from any efforts that might actually change it because it makes you uncomfortable.
Either you're not really that concerned about the institutional failure, or you believe in the fantasy that it can be fixed by unicorns and rainbows. It's a shitty mindset either way.
Institutions that are just as racist as law enforcement.
Get out of here with this shit.
Then don't, no one said you have to tolerate anything. In turn however, don't whine when people call out your posts for bringing tons of focus to the effect and not the cause. Like you want it both ways but it doesn't work like that.
If the fires get out of control (as the poster your quoted said) people could die.
Imagine if someone said, hey the nazis were bad but do we have to bomb German buildings?
Yes, we do. All of it has to be burned to the fucking ground.
Yes, we do. All of it has to be burned to the fucking ground.
Occupied residence now on fire that firefighters are having trouble getting to thanks to the chaos. Fuck all of you in here supporting this, come to my city and talk that shit about "lol burn it all down"
The murdered black people will take that into advisement.

Good news for you, no one is supporting burning down buildings with people inside.
