Not the first time this has happened. I remember watching a video, I think it was from the Los Angeles riot of 1992, where some guy was coming out of a store with a TV; someone else slugged the guy in the face, and as the "victim" instinctively put up his hands to defend himself, the attacker grabbed the TV from him and ran off.

Do you hear any politician talking about passing laws for police reform in arrest procedure, etc.? Or to create a nationwide approved arrest hold? Or creating an informative video on how to interact with cops, your rights, what to do if you're getting arrested, what to say/not to say, how to act when getting arrested, etc.??

After 1 to 2 weeks, this will fade. Lebron and co will start dunking at Mickey's BB court and people will forget. Maybe in Sept/Oct another incident and repeat and rise again and on it goes.

All this from the actions of one sociopathic cop?
Or maybe just an excuse for "a free tv".

Some of the looters must be 1st thieves, they stole the iphones that are inside Apple stores they don't know those are not for sale because they are programmed to get bricked if taken out of the stores. That's why they are left for people to try them with very little safety. And thieves would never take them because they are worthless.

It's going to fade, but there is going to be a massive upgrade in revolt

This has the outside potential to turn into a major race war / civil war. The police at some point are going to start fighting back, especially as more are assassinated and assaulted. You're going to see strikes, calls for help unanswered, and plenty of sabotage. The other side would counter, lines drawn, and everyone decide who's side you're on. And if the protestors don't realize that most Americans will side on the side of law and order then it's going to be a very ugly period in American history

Start? The’ve been doing it to each other for years, a far bigger problem overall for law-abiding black folks than police overreach for anyone willing to “keep it real”. Of which there are relatively few in the black communities, largely characterized as “Uncle Toms” of course.

Good point. These formerly Far Left fringe groups like BLM and Antifa has as a result of all this received humongous additional support both in terms of followers and financial support. They’ve been legitimized by the corporate world (ironic since they despise the corporations) and MSM. They are now not going away and will be a major force in this country both socially and politically. We’ve created a new radical monster.
