In the poorest areas of Chicago, they can only flee to other poor areas, and the story is the same.

Exactly! It's not the color of your skin but the culture you live by. So many people try to turn this into a Black/White or skin color issue!

If you are intoxicated, sitting in the drivers seat and in possession of the keys you can be arrested for DUI. The keys don't even have to be in the ignition in some states.



You are suggesting they ignore this? What happens when he leaves the lot and kills someone? You'll be complaining they should of arrested him.

If they're lucky they'll get shifts at other store locations but they'll have to travel and they'll get reduced hours...at best.
Yup, another victim of black on black crime.

Those employees had kids and families to feed. Those employees took their paychecks to spend it on other local businesses.

Another sad example of why these areas are deprived of the lucrative investments they believe they deserve.

This crime of arson that massively hurts the locals who had jobs there, and not the billion dollar chain who has insurance is the symbolic change that was so desperately needed in these communities.

Less jobs, less opportunities, less property value, more arson, and more crime equals change.
This is every thugs wet dream (white and black thugs, to make myself clear). They're going to find one injustice after the next. It's going to be a long, hot, fiery summer if they don't lock us all up again.

Not always. Tens of Millions of all races jump from lower to middle class, and when they do, they leave the ghetto behind, to provide a safe life for their family.

Sorry, this shooting was completely justified, stop resisting arrest and grabbing for the officers gun and it won’t happen to you,

Do we allow killling when the police are embarassed?
You don't think these things through do you. What happens to the cop when he gets tasered by the thug?
