Bull. I'm not "griping about peaceful protests against police brutality"-as rare as that actually happens. I'm calling them savages because they are acting like savages, destroying businesses, looting, burning. These "people" are worse than animals. And no, that's not a racial comment-many of these savages are white and Hispanic. The animals don't care about Floyd (remember him?)-they are just looking for an opportunity to destroy and kill. Instead of addressing the tiny number of cases of "police brutality" they are fueling demands for far more police and an even more militarized police force to protect people and their property from the savages.

Law enforcement will not and is not responsible for protecting you, let alone your property. They have utterly failed to do so in many of our major cities. There has been a breakdown of society with the savages in control in far too many places, especially in places where idiots in mayor's offices "give them space". If the government can't accomplish their most important function, it is time for citizens to do so.

Well said. Yep, there's not enough we can give those welfare-sucking, lazy losers to make them happy and quiet. Their behavior causes me to view them as sub-human and mentally deficient. I got zero sympathy for them.

Why aren't all the good, working people in our cities standing up to the thugs and savages (of every race and background) destroying their lives, their homes, their businesses? Why are so few of our 80 million law abiding gun owners (and I include myself in this) not on the front lines, protecting the innocent and their property. Why are we letting our media and our politicians get away with treating these violent savages with deference and respect?

This needs to end. We need to stop allowing spoiled, violent thugs to take over our cities-and our nation.
I can not watch the coverage of this on TV, it disgusts me beyond description. Those dumb*** rioters do not realize they had it in the bag, people, both white and black, were angry at the cops for killing that man, and wanted them held accountable. But those rioters could not accept that our justice system would take over and they had to start burning down innocent, unrelated businesses and destroying their own communities.

The little bit I was able to stomach to watch, I saw looters and rioters laughing and having a good old time, and their only concern was breaking into some business and getting free food, shoes, liquor, and TV's. Now, instead of supporting the killing of this man, it makes me dislike their entire community for doing these senseless acts. And they wonder why some people have no respect for them.

I hope this violence and viciousness is as publicized as the murder of Floyd was. But we know better... This one sickens me, I grew up just up the road from Rochester, sad to see the animals have taken over that city. Buffalo was always horrible, Rochester was typically better.

These savages seem to be forgetting that we just had a huge spike in gun sales in the last couple of months.

Peaceful protests are justified and warranted. George Floyd was murdered in cold blood. No wonder people have had enough. Looters coming in are doing nothing but muddying the waters for those who are peacefully trying to change the system. Sadly, the message may well be lost because of the criminal element here. I sure hope not though. Not protesting sure hasn't changed anything. And I'm not talking about looting and setting things on fire either.

Several protests have been peaceful and without incident. I hope we can focus on those and that George Floyd and his family will be able to get the justice they deserve.

When the liberal disease is eliminated, it will allow us to salvage what is left of the country and constitution.

Frankly, it wouldn't both me if Trump became a dictator. I would much rather have a dictator with sensible policies than elected Democrats with insane, crackpot policies that reward the lazy and the criminals of society.

It's not an issue in this country. Looting and destruction of property is an issue.
