I disagree. For the most part criminals are cowards. Especially so when they are the type that hunt in packs. Drop a couple and the rest will scurry like the cockroaches they are.

I understand. I was exaggerating. Sort of tired seeing people "oh, the government is taking over. Nobama!" Then when this happens, people have a chance to stand up.....they praise the police! I don't care if we get militarized as America seems to agree. Facts of life.

Did you not see the businesses that were looted and set on fire? No, I will not watch my choice of words.

Where are the locals with firearms to defend their property and lives? Are we returning to the way of the jungle, where the most barbaric mobs are allowed to rule? Or are the victims standing up and we just aren't seeing any reporting on it?
I don't see any animals. I see humans. Humans who are sick and tired of their children being gunned down like wild animals. Humans are sick of people like you that cling to demeaning rhetoric that promotes gunning other humans down like animals.

So you're saying you specifically saw a protester drop his sign and loot? Is THAT what you are telling me?

There is a simple solution to that problem. Don't riot, assault other people, steal from them and destroy their property. End of problem. "People" that do those things are worse than animals. They make a conscious decision to do so...animals can't help what they do. It doesn't matter if they are black, white, red, brown or freekin' green. They are defined by their actions.

You laugh now, but wait until a couple of these business owners in this situation (or any other down the road that occcurs), drops a couple of these POS thugs! Will you then be singing the same tune? I'll say this again! Harming innocent people, and destruction of private property is NOT acceptable, and will not garner much support, even if the cop in this case was in the wrong! That goes for ALL, whether you're white, black, green, or from planet Jupiter!
