    Thank you very true words.

    I also find it interesting that there's tons of comments about the rioting, but no comment about the incident which sparked the riots.

    Didn't expect this group to be OK with police brutality.

    Tread away, I guess.

    Exactly,

    dude was murdered by thugs in uniform, burn the cop stations and city institutions in protest if you are so inclined but the looting/destruction of civilian buildings/business indicate to me at least, political opportunism combined with good old criminality.

    I find the lack of outrage over the deaths of local people at the hands of the state in the last months by our civil society as quite perturbing.

    It like when somebody breaks into your house and runs away, you are angry so you go out and shoot your neighbor instead.

    Burning private property and looting does not reflect on opinions or grievances, it reflects on the character of the people doing it.

    I think it goes without saying that what the policeman done was wrong. But events have since escalated dramatically and everyone is now concentrating on the fallout, not the event itself. It has nothing to do with condoning police brutality and you suggesting as much is just ridiculous and wreaks of wanting to start a fight, for whatever reason you have in mind.

    Kindly point out where exactly I defended police brutality. Your Strawman Arguments have no power here.

    Indeed.

    Yeah right. No one even mentioned the inciting incident. Tells you all you need to know about the attitude of this thread.
