And I thought from several liberals in this forum that riots and looting were "minuscule" or very small.

Around 1,500 businesses in Minneapolis where Floyd died, and in St. Paul, were damaged by vandalism, fire or looting during the unrest, Walz's office said in a statement, with estimates of the damage in the Twin Cities exceeding $500 million.

A preliminary assessment found $15 million of damages related to the fires alone, according to KNSI radio.


Uh huh. So much for honesty and integrity that liberals love to preach about.

Must be DT's fault and white privilege, right? LOL.

So, have you a list of the violators and their affiliations that prove it was liberal protesters committing all this damage?
Couldn't be that criminals would take advantage of the situation...naw, has to be the protesters.

Nice try to spin and put YOUR words as mine. Nope. Not going to work. What did I say in the very FIRST sentence that you just quote? Here it is .."
".... I thought from several liberals in this forum that riots and looting were "minuscule" or very small."


One of your guys said this and I quote..

Trump drones who've been fooled into thinking rioting is more widespread than it is (it's actually a tiny sliver of the protests)

See the word "TINY"? 1,500 businesses and HALF a billion USD and counting is tiny? Uh huh. He claimed "ACTUALLY" with ZERO evidence to back up.

If you want more quotes like that. Let me know.

There were over 400 cities that held protests, hence the small sliver I'm guessing since I didn't post it.

okay lets play your game....let us say you are right!
What about the small miniscule number of bad Police.......
Also it has been reported that the looting and fired were not done by the protesters!
The looting a fires were done by another element of people whp sought to take advantage of the protests by looting and dessting fires!
Also on several occasions it was reported that people were breaking windows and such while the Police did nothing, because those people breaking windowsw were undercover cops! The Police know that when met with protesters that if they can start trouble of inatigate that they can legally abuse the protesters!
Of course you would never admit that you are wrong and only concerned with making this about you and how right you think you are!!
Good job!! Heres a golden star!!

Oh so now it is the undercover cops? 1,500 places from MN and I haven't include other cities such as Rochester (see link below).

And you claim "reported"......by??? I provided a link from well know source to back up my statements. And you have????

And you are going to claim these individuals beat up this female in the head (in Rochester) as undercover cops too, right?


Gonna tell her and her husband to suck it up because it was just "minuscule" and because them crackers have "white privilege", right?

Spin baby spin. Uh huh.

Ugh. The police must obviously be held to a higher standard than street thugs. Otherwise there will be no difference.
Most reasonable Americans support holding police to a higher standard. Most reasonable Americans also recognize that anarchy is not the means to achieve it.

Interesting how for some people not wanting to be extrajudicially murdered by the govt has become anarchy to some other peoples minds.

The people not wanting to be extrajudicially murderer are not the same as the people who exploited this movement to play anarchist commune. Interesting that you would equate the two.

This assumes there were reasonable and legitimate attempts to fix the problem.
Either there have been reasonable and legitimate attempts to fix the problem, which have not worked, in which case the protesters are doing the right thing;
or
There have not been reasonable and legitimate attempts to fix the problem, in which case the protesters are even more in the right.

This has been a known problem that has been a major concern since at least 1992, it seems like if they want to get anything done they are going to have to make a fuss about it.

Is there some reason you didn't want to say it was a black guy? It's ok to say that, it's also ok to assume that black guys stuck in traffic because of protesters get pissed off just like white guys. I'll go ahead and add that this could well have been an accident.

how many white Ethiopians do you know? BLM has a whole different meaning over there, and it's been speculated by some that it was a motive? or he could be just scared? the facts will come out eventually one can hope.

There was a Oromo singer killed by the government recently that led to riots that killed 81 people, Oromo leaders had been using the BLM in the protests, as have Oromo in Minnesota



there where even a couple of protests in Seattle by the Oromo community , could just be pure coincidence

And it's not interesting that you would tell lies again. This 'anarchist commune' was started by protesters who were being beaten and tear gassed by police who wanted to suppress the protesters' speech. But you already knew that, of course.

Why does it matter to you that it was a black guy? Is it also ok to assume that being stuck in traffic is justification to intentionally hit people with cars? Seems like many of you will do anything to apologize for murdering protesters whose speech you disagree with.
