Violent standoff of baltimore protesters

[Cantaloupe]

Gangs are taking the streets of Downtown Baltimore setting fires in their own neighborhoods, nothing new.

Another riot over a racial issue. I'm shocked there isn't riots over black people dying from old age against death.

I'm shocked that there aren't many or any black people rioting against their own people killing each-other as a result of gang-related violence in America's inner cities. It's an epidemic.

statistically going back like 10k years. violence is almost always the best course of action if you expect results from the government.
its no different today.

While it may be effective, because of the nature of the protestors here, who seem to jump to conclusions and take from the bloated media reports, it would be better if the police didn't just give in to mob rule.  Doing so would be recognizing violent mob power, and that's something that America should not recognize as a strategy to create change.

EDIT: wholey stuff they set a police car on fire

I hope their livestreams get saved because some hilarious stuff happened in the chat that they said.

The chat actually got the chick to say "jet fuel can't melt steel beams".

Damn, this is all going on about 70 miles from me

Riots =/= revolution.

yes they are.
you have been trained to think anything other then a big organized army is terrorists and rioters.
thats why they are getting away with so much.

there's something so comical about white people saying "i'm sick of all these black people rioting all the time, it's a broken record!"

well then stop killing them all the forgetin time

I think there are more blacks killing each-other than whites killing blacks. Major news outlets (mostly liberal) take these things out of proportion because there is an audience for it.

they're burning down businesses and looting and stuff, and every highschool kid supposedly is doing a purge there tonight

its pretty much Ferguson 2.0

i'm not arguing that black-on-black crime isn't an issue - if anything, it's one of the biggest problems facing america right now.

im just saying the attitude of people being "sick" of riots and protests against police brutality, like it's some annoying dude in your dorm who doesn't do his laundry or something. it's funny.

Protest going on? Time to loot a store and grab as many Funyuns and Mike&Ikes as you can! Also I love the lady in the "Black Power" shirt smiling as she is taking stuff.



And now you can see her skipping away from the scene lmao loving bitch.

as someone who was in berkeley during a protest, i can assure you the people looting are not freedom fighters - they're hoodlums who like to break stuff. there's a million of em in each city and they wait with bated breath for a chance to do this stuff.

it's easy to group protestors and looters together so you don't have to think too deeply about the issue at hand. but look at the bigger picture.
