    I knew Prince was from there, and the voters elected that idiot Ilhan Omar, so I kind of just assumed there were more than 3 or 4 of them there. Sounds like most of them frequented the Target. To burn it.

    Won't be long before @Swaye starts counting coup on some looter ass.

    It is seriously fucked up what is going on there. Tune into @TerranceWIlliamsDWAG from Race's' link to see what rational people think about this chinsanity. Justice for George Floyd isn't served one iota by burning down police stations, burning down daycare facilities, burning down Native American youth centers, or burning down affordable housing apartments. And looting from local businesses doesn't do anything either.

    It's a giant shitshow and that limp dick Mayor is a fucking joke. As Terrance said now lots more people need justice than just Floyd because you burned down their history, their place of work, or their homes. Absolute mess.
    Two wrongs don't make a right might be corny and juvenile and cliche but it's also truth.

    This definitely doesn't do anything to help Floyd or his family.

    Clusterfuck.

    Prince and Kirby Puckett per the ole Chris Rock joke.

    There's actually a shit ton of African Muslims there though.

    That's the thing about riots. They don't hurt whitey or the power structure. They kill minority business in the city. Happened big time in the 60's. It was called white flight but it was Black business owners who got the fuck out after seeing their shit burn.

    Peaceful protest = concerned citizens

    Riots = bad actors looking for exploit tragedy for free liquor, cigarettes, and TVs

    Policing the in-between is the challenge.

    Good for that guy. Hope he enjoys those bottles and it brings him some cheer.

    Would you be saying that if it was your deli mart that he stole from?
    As long as he didn't set it afire or knock everything off the shelves, I'd be okay with it.

    burning down Native American youth centers

    More "protesting" "Black lives sometimes matter" would appear to be a better slogan.

    Democrats are letting them run loose and scot-free because they think it hurts Trump.

    Line up the po-po in hats and bats and start whooping some ass! 40mm foam tip rounds are a joy to watch!

    Don Lemon already blamed Trump for it. Others are sure to follow. That's how the media rolls.

    Thousands of Somalians have made it mini-Magadishu. Part of the rioting is in Ilhan Omar’s district.

    Our resident (alleged) cop doesn't seem to get too excited by violence at all.

    Is the violence "exciting" @dnc? Is that progress or justice?

    Some would call it vigilantism. Others would call it opportunism. Or theft.

    Not sure what any of it helps, other than creating some temporary cleanup jobs while the young and old have much longer commutes for essentials.

    I agree with all those descriptions.

    It's an entertaining job. Do stupid shit win stupid prizes was invented by the police. We find a reason to laugh at most things or you'll go crazy. HTH

    If you you want to bet any LARGE sums of money on my former job I'm right here! I like money!
