I'm sure white folks are not ashamed to be white because of Jim Crow and slavery.
BLACKS ARE NOT MONOLITHIC. We are individuals. What one black man does, does not affect me.
Blacks looting has no affect on me at all. I'll never be ashamed to be of my own race.
The idea that we are divided into different races based on variances in our skin pigmentation is patently absurd. There is only one race, the human race.
This culture is shameful, and everyone who associates with it should be ashamed. However, as members of the human race, we should all be ashamed.
OOOooooh, Stephanie Rawlings Blake (D) just called the rioters thugs.
I guess she's a raaaa-cist eh?
Anyone who thinks the term thug has anything to do with race, is a racist. It applies to people who act like these people are acting, and other brutish, inconsiderate, selfish conduct. A person's skin color has nothing to do with it.
Show me who is making excuses for criminals. Your strawman has no legs to stand on.
Watching the news today, I kept getting angry as I watched several Democrat guests say about how it was understandable and it was just frustration from living in poverty, etc. Yeah, that's excuses! Enough!
Anyone wonder if this guy had been off the streets, he'd still be alive?

Hey I got an idea - don't sell drugs, don't loot from innocent people. Don't burn their cars or businesses - and you won't get shot. Wow, what a concept.
