Nothing says we want justice like theft.
Racists STILL want to discuss looting? GFY.
Apparently, Floyd's death had such a devastating impact on the community. It tuns out that nah, they just want to steal. GFY
Apparently white supremacy has such devastating impact on whites they need to use looting as red herring to deflect froM the real issue. GFY.

Not necessarily. Your kids live in NOVA, which is generally more "woke" than many other parts of this country. Kids aren't outraged at all about this in my hometown.

And if you see an old white lady and her old white husband taking a knee during any playing of the National Anthem at any event, it will be me.
Are you going to take a knee for the white people unjustly killed by the police? Or are only certain people a victim in your world?

The black community is hurting themselves acting like this and rioting. Giving the media what it wants. Stop it!
"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.
Or, looters get a pass from you, OK. Are you in one those pics carrying stuff that you didn't pay for?

You are offering up a mix of slogans and absurdity. The “city” where people will continue to live and work should not be punished. The police officers and department, yes. See how MPS has now already announced it is terminating its contract with MPD.
I really wish vapid people like you pretending to be “allies“ would STFU, stop contributing to the noise, and think harder about what really needs to be done. You won’t be around long enough to even begin to clean up the mess that you’re encouraging from your safe, comfortable den in NW, Bethesda or McLean.
