For a very small group of whites that maybe a true statement.

The difference is those are political parties, not race parties. You're an idiot if you can't see the difference.

I'd argue that there is a long-term loss for them, but obviously they don't have the foresight to see it. "Free" stuff today, but if you destroy the businesses in your neighborhood where do you go to buy those same goods tomorrow or next week/month?

I think that's why we are having this discussion.

According to the news, the area is being treated as an active crime scene. The cameras got a lot of people on camera, and really well at that. I hope they make arrests.

Most Americans do not have an issue with protests. They have helped make great changes to our country.
You, however, ARE condoning rioting and looting. Peaceful protests are not what caused the total destruction and damage to over 25 businesses in Ferguson last night. Looting and rioting are what caused that.
If you think the Ferguson case would not have been heard of but for the rioting, then you are condoning rioting and looting.
The family of Martin Luther King Jr. and the people who participated in the marches back during the civil rights movement would take great exception to your comment.
Rioting and looting leads to nothing positive.

Since you mention Martin Luther King Jr.:

Apparently someone has never heard of the problems of getting stores/movie theaters etc. in minority neighborhoods. The businesses will leave and there will be nothing. There is a huge loss for the looters and also the upstanding citizens of the community.

Nah, they're race parties.

I am white and consider them race parties. Rush Limbaugh is a racist and a misogynist. How is that a political party?! Unless that is what the Republicans stand for?

I don't and have never seen them affiliated with anything with "White" in the title. I can't say the same for the others!

What "others?" Can you articulate?

The insinuation that looting and rioting is limited to Black people is absurd and offensive, as is the idea that one or two men speak to an entire black community.

Perspective is desperately needed here folks.

+1

Exactly!

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, both of which I referenced in my original post.
