Nope both are idiotic. These people are destroying peoples property doesn't help or promote their cause in anyway. It just pisses everyone off more.

It just makes me mad that they're doing nothing but destroying the community they live in trying to prove a point but they're doing nothing but making it worse on the situation and themselves.

Yup, destroying property is a lot worse than your local law enforcement murdering civilians.

It's funny, people get more agitated at the rioting than the crimes being perpetrated by law enforcement as they get a slap on the wrist.

Don't start. The facts about incidents like those to which you are referring are rarely known until way after the fact. Thanks to our media.

In the meantime, you're condoning mass destruction and theft of property against innocent parties. Is ones anger, for example, enough cause to justify denting 20 car roofs of people totally uninvolved?

I cringed when i saw this because I knew how people were going to look at this. Every time we do this nonsense it fuels the confirmation bias that my people are seen as uncivilized. And it sucks because now, no one gives a shit about the real situation going down in this country. This will get pushed under the rug like every other case and history repeats itself again and again and again.

Riot?? What is this amateur hour? I've seen more destruction during a Kmart Blue Light Special! 50 renegade idiots does not a riot make.



...Still feel bad for all those owners' property though. That shit is uncalled for.

Throwing stuff, breaking windows, flipping cars generally running around being jerks could all be called "rioting". The minute the looting starts it crosses a line from riot to outright theft and robbery. I always wonder just how many looters in a "riot" have no clue what is going on and just see an opportunity to steal shit while under the cover of a crowd and the events.

Yup I can guarantee at least 90 percent of the people smashing windows, destroying cars, and stealing things don't know what they are doing it for. Since when did being anger over police brutality result in me getting a free TV and pizza

It's not that they don't know, it's that they don't care. They're doing it to wreak havoc and score free shit; they don't care what the original cause was.
