I'll bet half the rioters couldn't name three actions Trump has taken as president. I'll go further and say that half of them couldn't name the vice president.

Why do you think that? What aspect of them makes you think they are ignorant of current events and politics?

Looting is an opportunity, not a protest.

Yeah, you're not really going to "stick it to the rich" by looting a Coach or Louis Vuitton store that's fully insured against theft.

If you really want to attempt to sabotage the modern economy and make the wealthy suffer, you would need to loot an AWS or Microsoft Azure data center. That's where the "real" economy is in 2020.

That and if you do it enough - or if you do it enough to mom and pop places, businesses will move out and take the jobs with them. So it will then effectively hurt the middle and lower class. Deeeeeeerp.


Also lol at raiding an AWS, I hear they have ridiculous army-like security at those places. Understandably so.

Chicago has been a powder keg for a very long time!
People are oppressed by a crooked Police department!
Whites and people of color all dislike the Chicago Police!
The only ones who like thr Chicago Police are the upper middle class and the very rich!!
It is called oppressing the lower class!!
Corruption abounds in Chicago!

The local TV news runs a story about this. One of the member of the blm says looting is just a form of reparation.

Old news........ao sorry it ruffled your feathers....

Wimp out I see. So silence = consent/approval (from the signs of blm).

Next!!! Beat it, troll.

So you are ok with looting, burning, and destroying everything? Condone or condemn?
Like most liberals, they are perfectly fine with it when it's not their gated suburb community.... Or if their personal business isn't anywhere near the riots either.

I mean, are they or are they not rioting in their own neighborhoods now? Oops, looks like another one of your bull shit talking points was easily defeated.

common sense says that looting happen in the same neighborhoods that protesting happens.

Latest update, 43 charged with felonies and new task forces to deal with looting....ooopp, "reparation".


No matter how progressive a government proclaims to be... none of them are fucking dumb. You want to loot magnificent mile? You're basically where all the tourists go, so that is a straight ticket to jail.

Stick to looting your own kind, is basically what these liberal cities are saying.

Only a person who thinks in such terms could frame it like that.

We don't need you to tell us you're racist.

Still playing token cards eh? When in doubt with your arguments, just dismiss them infallible politically correct arguments!

But DON'T WORRY! If you keep putting those politically correct arguments under your pillow every night, one day it will result in equality of outcome of all races, genders, etc... I promise! ;)


SHHHHH, SHHHH, ignore the facts sweety... Go to sleep....
