The black community is hurting themselves acting like this and rioting. Giving the media what it wants. Stop it!
The "black community" is angry and sad and exhausted. You can only push people for so long before they push back. If you can't understand that, you're not actually trying.
I get that. But wouldnt a peaceful march with thousands of people uniting for this cause be better? Wouldnt those images make a better impact for the world?? how is tearing apart a store helping?
Please tell me the last time a peaceful march by relatively powerless people accomplished actual systemic change in this country. Keep in mind, that this is not just about a murder, it's about yet another murder committed by an authority representing the state. Maybe you can imagine how hard it might be for a black person to pay taxes and see what those tax dollars actually pay for.
Tearing a store apart is not helping -- but it is probably a healthier reaction to many lifetimes of oppression and murder than some of the alternatives. There is no cohesive "black community", but for the sake of the discussion, if the white community -- you know, the people who have the political and economic clout in this country -- were to march and protest and actively and publicly work for change, maybe positive changes would actually appear possible. As a "white conservative trump supporter, if people like you could vocally and visibly protest, that would go a long way towards pointing attention to -- and maybe even addressing -- some deeply embedded systemic problems in this country.

"The black community" aren't the only people protesting...
True, but they’re the only ones looting.
Focusing on the looting = waving the confederate flag.
Did you get our your special tiki torches out on Memorial Day?
This is a weak statement.
The rioting and looting were a result of the reaction to this awful death.
They are hurting innocent business owners, destroying property, and causing the taxpayers of the city undue costs.
The police station and police cars that were damaged and destroyed? They'll be repaired and replaced - at the taxpayers expense.
Rioting and looting is just stupid and short sighted. Many were simply taking advantage of a bad situation. The people there who were protesting should speak out against these criminals.
The only criminals we really need to focus on right now are the killer cops.
Your continued focus on looting says a lot about you.
Really? Looting going on right now at the Target in Minneapolis.
When you come out to protest, and you start stealing stuff, you become a thief.
When you come out to protest, and you start burning stuff, you become an arsonist.
Thieves and arsonists are criminals.
The justice system will take care of the cops. Hopefully, the justice system will also take care of the criminals who are taking advantage of this situation.
Looting isn’t the issue here.
. . .
Really?
- what about all the sick people who depended on the pharmacy for their life-saving medications?
- how about those who depended on the Target minute clinic?
- and now the Target employees there are unemployed. For what?
Those looters just victimized countless innocent people right there in their own community.
But you don’t think it’s an issue at all??!?![]()
Black lives matter more than Target stores. It's pretty simple. And I live in South Minneapolis. I've gone to that Target many times. We have hundreds more and tons of Minute Clinics. This is Minneapolis, HQ of Target - we aren't suffering for retail options. Get a sense of perspective.
We only had one George Floyd, and we can't bring him back.

Better check in with their black racist police chief.
He may not be racist, but he is a cop so he will protect his fellow officers.
That’s why this bullshit continues because cops don’t hold each other accountable.
I know physicians who "cover" for each other's criminal actions. I know families who "cover" for each other's criminal activity.
You can sit and complain forever about criminals.
Now tell us what you're willing to DO about it.

+1000 There are consequences for innocent people who did nothing wrong. There is absolutely nothing high and mighty about looting and rioting. It's out of control mob behavior.
