funny how race relations will continue to get worse not because of racist white people but because of blacks behaving as seen above
Nah, it will be because of racist white people. No one tells them to put their racist views on 40 million people of which over 39 million have no part in Baltimore or rioting of any kind. To put that behavior on all is ridiculous.
Why didn't the police or military force stop them?
Looters should be shot on site.
I agree, what they've done is criminal, but the whole thing is, they are now afraid, can you imagine, if they would have shot one of those criminals....? I mean, Freddie, was a criminal....
but they don't care, it's white on black....actually they are the racists, and they are the ones that keeps hate alive.....
Okay, fine. Go with that, if that's what you want to believe.
Actually a riot in Baltimore doesn't have any effect on my life, so other than this being sensational news for people to feel like it matters to them, this doesn't really mean much.
I told you once before, I'm ignoring you, b/c no matter what, you have all the answers and it's a waste of time to reply to your posts......you'll do anything to get a response, I wasn't addressing you and you went and created this whole new argument....

Actually, Baltimore is a majority black police force.
Well, this is what I have to say about this. Calls for peace aren't working. Rioters and looters aren't going to listen to reason. And especially when many of them are gang members. "Live by the sword, die by the sword" is the philosophy. What has stopped looting in the past(of businesses anyway) are people shooting looters. I am in favor of people defending their businesses. What I hope doesn't happen are those persons who use the Stand Your Ground mentality as an excuse to shoot random people whether they are looting or not.
SO the answer is to destroy businesses and old folks home so it cana ll equal out
Why don't people respond to what is written? I wrote what I think is a very, very thoughtful post about this situation and instead of thinking about it you respond with the so are you saying rioting is ok nonsense.
Its an irrelevant question.
Is state sponsored violence the answer? Is the city of Baltimore paying out millions of dollars to average citizens due to police brutality or civil rights violations the answer?
I think the riots and my two questions are related.
Yes, I watched the video, that is what she said, and like I said, it sounded like a poor choice of words. I don't think that is what she meant. But of course, right wing media is foaming at the mouth because of this comment and we have what we have here. Nothing that surprises me here.
Just a "poor choice of words." Typical Leftist cover. We're interpreting it wrong. Sure.
And when they assemble they even put their garbage in the garbage cans
Yep and they act like civilized people in a civil society. I see no danger in them expressing their opinions peacefully.
