Rob's House Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 2 hours ago, Muppy said: He can't not all protesters are vandals. A few are. Absolutes are never a given in these situations. Factoring the true valid protest as opposed to rabble hoping to incite violence and destruction is the rub. The folks taking a violent looting turn are not the true protesters in my opinion. They are simply criminal opportunist thieves and inciters of hatred and animosity. Social change rationale attributed to them cant really be proven or disproven IMO . Taking advantage of a volatile situation and taking it out on innocent business owners is terrible shame on them. Some protestors are vandals, but all protestors are dipshits. WTF are they even protesting? Is it about the mythical scourge of police murdering innocent black men? Or the racial oppression they claim is rampant but still manages to successfully hide from all but those who believe on faith? If these assho!es really want to make the world a better place they should take their cult the way of Jim Jones so they can stop oppressing black people with their white privilege. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The genius of the United States is that it’s a laboratory for legislative ideas. So I’m all for it! Let Minneapolis experiment till the cows come home. I’ll sit back and see what comes of it. (PS: I obviously don’t live there.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I read the people of Minneapolis may have to vote for this. Something to do with the city charter, and they were rushing to get it onto the November ballot. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent about 6 weeks in Minneapolis a number of years ago. I loved the city, the people were awesome and the lakes beautiful. If the opportunity had come around to visit, I’d have taken my wife and children there in a heartbeat (though my wife kept telling friends I was in Michigan). Now? No thanks. Btw there are a lot of lakes in Minny...I bet there are easily 2500. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw there are a lot of lakes in Minny...I bet there are easily 2500. My son went to law school there and I really enjoyed the city every time I visited him. He was with a law firm up there until January of this year and is now with a firm down in Houston. I am so glad he left when he did. So is he. As an aside, he knew the Mayor and, well, let’s just say he wasn’t a fan 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What degree of responsibility do you place on the true protesters for not weeding out the bad apples that damage and loot? If the vast majority of people gathering and/or marching in the form of a protest are innocent and peaceful then one would think that they could easily control the rioters. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11962078/black-girl-set-fire-racist/ I am just gonna post this with almost certainty this is fake and the girl got burned by a Molotov cocktail during the riots. The whole story does not make sense, especially the part where an EMT does not know to get burns looked at immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the protesters want to say all cops are bad because the truly bad ones aren’t immediately identified and weeded out, the same standard should apply to them. #allprotestersarerioters 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
