[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, and while that is sad, one accidental death is not likely to make them take a huge reputational hit.  They are still net positive by rioting.  I think it's sad that it's going on, but most people observing the situation are going to side with the protestors- fires and stolen liquor and all- because of the incredible savagery of the police in the video.  We are literally a nation founded on the idea that the State's power should be restrained.  This issue will probably quickly be combined with sentiment that the covid response was an overreach-then bam! Bipartisan support. Really, MN should fold. They should fold quickly and deeply because they are 100% screwed.  [/quote]

You guys, please stop feeding this troll. I could have told you that she is a clueless academic who knows nothing about the real world, or more specifically, law enforcement. I highly doubt most black people are condoning the destruction of a city anyway. It format take many people to set fire, especially when the police are standing down.[/quote]

Hi, I'm not an academic and used to work in law enforcement.  Trolls say things to inflame people, which I'm obviously not doing. I'm arguing that the national view will be more sympathetic to the rioters than the government in this case. I mean, look at the Drudge Report right now. It's practically a love letter to the protesters.  You might not want to hear these things, but contrary information is often the most valuable.  [/quote]

Who is it sympathetic to? Because I can tell you it’s not for me or my family who thinks like me. We represent a large diverse age range. I think they degrade themselves to do that. What is Drudge Report? Is that some far left tv reporting? The news are not facts. People are too afraid to speak because of the backlash. The looti g always gets the message lost. Looting happens in hurricanes etc. they will now be looked at as thugs. Did Floyd actually use a fake bill? That’s all people will be asking. [/quote]
