Thank you.....
Ahh, back in 1921, the ads that said 4 out of every 5 doctors recommended Camel brand cigarettes. I gotta see if I can find some of these in higher resolution.

I believe it was 8 out of 10 doctors preferred Camels. The other two preferred women.

Wall Street didn't loot anyone's pensions. The typical 401k or pension has recovered its investment far beyond the previous 2008 highs. The stock market is currently at an all-time high.

Anyways, I see no relationship between a private individual choosing to put money in the stock market, for which there is obviously no guaranteed return, and a bunch of thugs burning down their neighborhood and shooting at people.

Nah just going off what the friend said, HE WAS THERE. I actually believe him. I know some of you folks on here who devalue black lives would never believe him. One fact for sure is you neither I was there to say what exactly happen. True or False?

If he simply obeyed Officer Wilson then he could of easily explained his side of the misunderstanding during his day in court!

There was a "pumpkin festival riot" where people were shooting at people (with two murdered so far), burning down businesses, shutting down freeways, and closing an international airport?

Methinks you're an apologist for the rioters and trying to do some idiotic false equivalency.

Nevermind that his friend was black or whatever pigmentation. Wasn't his friend an accomplice in robbing the store? If yes, is this the person you believe?

Can anyone tell me why?
What you're really asking is why do whites get upset at seeing BLACK PEOPLE loot. And the answer to that is: because what's supposed to be a protest about a perceived injustice is really just an excuse for them to steal items that they otherwise can't be bothered to buy.
