Great job guys. Really show people how much you care about black lives and civil rights.

Well, some people have reached a point where they don't care. Some people are ready for a war.

There is one thing I notice that riots do: They attract alot of attention. When people riot, it's basically war. War gets alot of people's attention. I'm not surprised this happen. Baltimore, Milwaukee, Charlotte, Dallas (in Dallas an ex-military person shot a police officer). It's happened over and over, it keeps repeating itself, and no one has figured out a way to stop it. Bringing in the military might stop it for now, but it won't prevent future riots.

No, a war on the city. I don't know what is up with looters, but people destroying things, that's basically like an act of war. And this isn't the first riot Minneapolis has had.

It happened in 1967 and 2002.

2002
MPR: Police shooting leads to violent protest

One person just died in the Mpls riot.

And while people are talking about looting, buildings are going up in flames. People are setting buildings are fire. It's basically war.

I get it. One side goes on a rampage, the other protests imaginary things like 5g causing viral infections or Bill Gates Anti-Christ narratives.

For both sides, they lose social distancing points...

But I would like to see the Michigan protesters type folks support Floyd...
