So you think because of the police's poor treatment of black people, you are going to teach them a lesson by vandalizing and stealing in black communities.

Interesting line of thinking.

Exactly:

"A $16 million nursing home built by a Baptist church, which was due to open in December after eight years of construction, has been burned to rubble on the city's east side as violence spread from the west of the city.

Just two blocks away, a housing development was also ablaze.

Officials feared the fires were sparked to pull emergency services from the west side of the city, where rioters continued to loot gun stores, check cashing stores, liquor stores and supermarkets well into Tuesday morning. Balaclava-clad mobs were seen ripping the doors off one rifle shop and passing weapons to people on the streets.

When a CVS pharmacy was set ablaze, rioters slashed fire fighters' hoses as they tried to battle the flames."

You're right, they should not be burning down a CVS, they should be focusing on offing members of that gang known as Baltimore PD.

Or if your team wins the NBA championship, riots is what you get.

Actually it's even simpler than that. They should not kill any innocent people.

YES.

What is the difference? Two groups of people acting unlawfully in support of something they feel is unjust. Law enforcement reacting/handling it completely different. There are some not so subtle differences in the two unlawful groups.

Baltimore PD is majority black so was the cops who took this man on this "rough ride" and crushed his windpipe and broke his neck black officers? Yesterday was the first I learned of this case but I want to know were the cops black or white?

Rioting doesn't accomplish anything. If you were thinking rationally, you would realize this. The problem is that rioters are not rational. They also tend to not respond rationally when this is pointed out to them.

both you & OP are correct..

All the Liberals are keeping their mouths shut! My Facebook page almost ignited yesterday with the "injustice of it all." Until the investigation was complete everyone should have refrained from provoking violence.

We should care that they are burning down their ghetto bc the liberals will use everyone's $ but there own to rebuild it!

I'm not condoning rioting, but the idea that an "investigation" will provide answers is naively stupid. You're talking about the cops and their close colleagues in the justice system investigating themselves & declaring they did nothing wrong.

Ever wonder why only 1% of police brutality grand jury cases involving fatalities committed by cops result in indictment?

Nah, you probably don't..

Hell yes they do. So does violence, fights, wars, terrorist acts, stealing, phsycological abuse. Its how empires are created, its how people finally stand up to their bullies, its a part of the human social fabric. its basic damn physics. Everything has a boiling pt.

What about Time? What is its boiling point?

Can't believe that I find myself agreeing with LEONARD SMALLS. But yeah, you got this one right.

They were white. Video proof:

Police don't actually give a cap they are rioting. It is pure entertainment. Let's watch these blacks burn down businesses other blacks have built and laugh at the thought the the backs actually think it is hurting police or white people. The world would be better served if the cops all had automatic weapons that could maul down those crowds with gunfire. None of those rioters will amount to anything and their claim to fame will be mooching off the government because they are discriminated against. Lol!

why are state and local tax rates higher and net federal government transfers negative in liberal states and tax rates in conservative states lower and net federal government transfers very substantially positive if "liberals will use everyone's $ but there [sic] own to rebuild it"? The answer is that conservatives are the ones living off the gov't. And no one will rebuild it. Areas of Baltimore devastated by riots in 1965 have still not been rebuilt, and the same is true for most of the dozens and dozens of cities that went up in flames in the mid 1960s. Look at the poverty rate and the crime rate, the police injustice, and the failure to build the city for its denizens, and then you ask why was there a riot???

clip and paste much?

This is the rap-sheet of the person they are destroying Baltimore in memory of.

I suppose he was fairly law-abiding by the standard most of them live throughout their lives.
