The ends do not justify the means. I don't care if the riots and terrorism were an act of rejecting child porn and their seedy participants, something we presumably all disapprove, you legally (and morally) have not justification to tear down other people's sh*t, and commit and incite violence.

Following their logic, how about a riot to protest the original rioters' terrorism? We can just go in circles. Because there are many who think LE has no grounds to stop this madness. They do. And they should. It is not the "militarization" of LE to send army-like resources to combat a domestic army.

Surely the Democrats of California can come together and say we politicians are not racists but the cops are.

Where's Kamala Harris? Surely, she can bring down the temperature.
Where's Dianne Feinstein? Why does she have a job?
Where's Nancy Pelosi? Chinatown but what about Oaktown?
Where's Adam Schiff? Too busy looking through transcripts for Russia collusion?

Where's a President who gives a **** about unarmed people getting murdered again, and again, and again?
I thought Hitler was supposed to be impeached, really, you're waiting for his leadership? Maybe you should care about your own Democrat leaders whom you have elected year after year?


Leadership for something like this comes from the top and Captain Catastrophe's lack thereof speaks volumes. Just like COVID 19, this is a national problem as evidence by the cities being affected by it and national leadership is what is needed. Perhaps Captain Catastrophe is too busy pushing Hydroxychloriquine, coming up with brilliant treatments for COVID 19, being mad at Twitter, or retweeting inappropriate slogans, to be the leader that this country needs at this time. Maybe we can all trust that he'll do better with the next national crisis.

I agree completely that Trump is not the guy you want at the helm in a crisis, but one other thing strikes me: Every single last one of the rioters and looters is a Biden supporter. That doesn't comfort me one bit. You know what they say about the company you keep.
The truth lies somewhere between CNN and Fox.

That's absolutely not true but it seems like a nice coping mechanism for you. We know that some number of far right militants (look up "Boogaloo") and racists (check out "Proud Boys") instigated rioting/looting. We know that antifa was responsible as well and they do not support Biden or anyone else in the government.

Did the political makeup of the marchers in Charlottesville comfort you? You know what they say about the company you keep.

I don't know how anyone can say with a straight face "the company you keep" while supporting Trump.

Nice attempt at deflection. Anyone with a set of eyes who watched the looters knows full well who's involved. You could count on one hand the amount of looters in Santa Monica who live there. They commuted in to prey on the beleaguered shopkeepers who've been trying to cope with Covid for months. They're parasites plain and simple. If you tuned in to CNN for a bit, Chris Cuomo was trying to put his taint on the proceedings by counting the white guys who were looting a Starbucks, just to make sure his viewers weren't believing what they were seeing with their own eyes.

To throw some irony in the mix, Santa Monica is as far left as one can go, almost on par with Berkeley, but I guess that didn't garner much mercy from society's "victims" who drove their very nice late model cars in from LA to pounce when their targets were vulnerable. What a way to pay back people who've been standing up for you.

Now, isn't it about the time of day for you to take one of those illegal walks in Golden Gate Park while questioning why there are so many people there violating the SIP order?

It's remarkable how many things you manage to get wrong. First - why don't you look at San Francisco public health guidance and point to me where it says that running in golden gate park or bicycling with children is illegal. I will wait.

Second - The fact that SM is liberal doesn't mean that the looters are voting for Biden since, as you point out, the looters aren't from Santa Monica. I doubt many looters are registered voters. The fact that you choose to ignore antifa and other extremists who don't support democrats whatsoever is unsurprising.

Third - you seem to believe in "the company you keep" so you either must be quite happy to be associated with white nationalists of the type who chanted in Charlottesville, or you think it only applies to other people. I would hope that it's the latter and that you are just a hypocrit, because the former is too depressing to accept.

I was at a protest over the weekend and nobody mentioned or showed any affinity with Biden- he's irrelevant to these protests.

The kinds of far-left young people who are most likely to be out in the streets protesting are not super big fans of Joe Biden. They might support him over Trump (though that's a big "might"), but in that group there are going to be a lot of hardcore Bernie Sanders supporters, third-party types, or people who don't vote at all.

I just looked at the sf.gov website and it says, in big bold letters: Stay home except for essential needs;
Everyone must stay home. https://sf.gov/stay-home-except-essential-needs Down further it does allow for: "You may walk, bike or go for a run near your home. If it would be difficult to stay 6 feet away from people not in your household, go somewhere else. Do not visit friends or family if there is no urgent need." The intent and spirit of the rules are quite clear. You have chosen to take the path of least resistance because that's what suits you. I know, I know, it's for other people to really shelter in place, even though you advocate for it endlessly. I'm just shocked at yet another example of limousine libby hypocrisy. Not.

I didn't literally mean that those looters were going to go out and vote for Biden. Why spend time voting when you can be out burglarizing people who are out voting? Very likely, many of them also don't know who George Floyd was. But if you asked them who they favored, would it be Trump or Biden? You can talk about Antifa and other extremist losers all you want, but I know what I saw, and 90+% of those looters were folks who wanted to take what they know isn't there's and probably never heard of Antifa.

When you are excusing the looters and rioters as some have done here, then you are in that company. I don't support any far right groups and trust me, I wouldn't qualify for membership even if I desired to join. In fact, I'd be one of their targets. But I do think it would be interesting for a sociologist to explore why there was no looting in Charlottesville.

Maybe you should look again: https://sf.gov/stay-active-during-coronavirus-outbreak

If you click the link you will see it say "stay active during the coronavirus pandemic."

Golden Gate Park is the nearest open park and it's perfectly reasonable for me to run there (which I only do during weekday off hours) and to take my kids there for bike rides. It's a responsible way to exercise, to get outdoor time, and to give my young children some sense of normalcy. There is nothing limousine liberal about outdoor exercise. There is no hypocrisy here.

No one is excusing looters and rioters. But it's interesting to know that you prefer to align with the white supremacists who marched in Charlottesville and that in your hierarchy you place racists above looters.

I would also compare to the Women's Marches that took place in the years after Trump's election, versus the spontaneous protests happening on the day of his inauguration.

Perhaps when protests are planned in advance for a specific time and place the local authorities are better able to prepare for potential lawlessness and guard against it. When they are spontaneous there is no such opportunity.

Many of the protest were planned. Why can't we just accept the reality that there were agitators who wanted to use the valid protest to loot and steal? Why mix the two? Who are we trying to defend?

I am trying to figure out how anyone could have twisted my comments to be a "defense" of looting and stealing, but I can't. Nothing I said is in opposition to anything you said here.

Of course the rioters and looters are getting a free pass here and by the mainstream media. The cops are evil and racist and need to be taught a lesson. Black people are dying. The media is fanning the flames of racial divide.

No no. It was documented that the Charlottesville police were unprepared. See here. Yet, looting was not an issue. Why?

Boy it sure seems like you have a point of view as to why the white supremacists who marched on Charlottesville didn't engage in looting while they were chanting "you will not replace us".

Don't be coy - tell us what you really think. I think it would be interesting for a sociologist to explore how you view both an organized white supremacist rally in one small southern city and a series of protests against police brutality throughout the US, which was leveraged by lawless individuals and groups to opportunistically commit violence and theft.

Why are you afraid to answer the question? Why wasn't that protest, or the women's march that was referred to earlier, "leveraged by lawless individuals and groups to opportunistically commit violence and theft"?

Boy it sure seems like you have a point of view as to why the white supremacists who marched on Charlottesville didn't engage in looting while they were chanting "you will not replace us".

Don't be coy - tell us what you really think. I think it would be interesting for a sociologist to explore how you view both an organized white supremacist rally in one small southern city and a series of protests against police brutality throughout the US, which was leveraged by lawless individuals and groups to opportunistically commit violence and theft.
Why are you afraid to answer the question? Why wasn't that protest, or the women's march that was referred to earlier, "leveraged by lawless individuals and groups to opportunistically commit violence and theft"?
Sorry - you never said you wanted us to answer a question. You said you thought it would be interesting for a sociologist to explore.

I think it's far too soon to fully understand the genesis and propagation of the looting. How much of it was instigated by antifa or far right groups (etc.) or far right groups masquerading as antifa?

Perhaps there was no looting in Charlottesville because the rally was during the day. Or perhaps it's because it wasn't in the middle of a pandemic where shelter in place orders have shuttered stores which made them easier targets. Or there could be any other number of reasons.

I think the biggest difference between the Floyd protests (and the lawlessness that was drawn to leverage the protests) and the white supremacists march on Charlottesville is that the former was organized to be a non-violent protest against police brutality and the latter was a white supremacist rally by those wishing do to harm to minorities.

So I've answered your question, now you can stop being coy and answer mine.

Tell us why you think there was no looting in Charlottesville. Tell us why you believe white supremacists marchers in Charlottesville are better than lawless looters/rioters. Tell us what you actually think about this matter. Don't hide behind questions, as you seem to prefer.

You obviously have a point of view on this matter, so why aren't you sharing it?

This report said that the police didn't prepare adequately, but not that they didn't know the rally would be happening. They knew it was happening. The Floyd protests were more or less spontaneous; authorities could not know exactly when or where they were going to happen. Still a big difference there.

I know questions bother you because you never ask them and are clearly suspicious of those who do. The reason of course is if you ask, you present yourself as someone who doesn't know everything. It's unfortunate because you could possibly learn from some pretty smart people on this board, which includes you. But I do understand that some people are suspicious of questions and need to be seen as an authority--a person who only answers, not asks.

I think that the people that are looting today don't care about George Floyd or have even, in many case, even heard of him. I think they want the stuff and they see an opening to get it. I think they have no soul. I think they feel they deserve whatever they can get their hands on. They have successfully convinced themselves they are victims and get to even the score against even the people of Santa Monica, who have a decades-long history of standing behind minorities and the homeless. Tom Hayden is rolling in his grave. Let's see if Santa Monica changes their tune from here on out. I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

I think that the marchers in Charlottesville and the women's marchers wanted the message to get out. They don't have a group that allies with them closely enough to leverage the situation for their own greed the way today's "protesters" do. They don't view shopkeepers as their enemy. That's what I think.

I just love your line "Perhaps there was no looting in Charlottesville because the rally was during the day." Another classic of yours. You know very well there are hours of video showing looting in broad daylight. If this doesn't turn your stomach there's something seriously wrong: https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/video/4572179-watch-looters-break-into-stores-in-santa-monica-promenade-and-steal-merchandise/

Other than the patagonia looting by surfers in Santa Monica I hadn't been aware of daytime looting. It's terrible but to be honest it doesn't make me feel any different than nighttime looting. I've mentioned numerous times over the past week how I feel about people who commit violence and are engaging in looting and violence. They are piggybacking on the Floyd protests and I don't think it's fair to taint the peaceful protesters with the violence and crimes committed by others.

I don't know how to address your statement about the motivations of the looters because I'm not a sociologist. You could be right. There is a lot of unrest right now - exacerbated by the state of the economy, no doubt.

If you want to know what turns my stomach - it's the fact that you think the difference between Charlottesville and the unrest over the last week is that the white supremacists just "wanted the message to get out." Looting is a crime. White supremacism is an abomination.

Most people would point out that the biggest difference between Charlottesville and Floyd protests is that one side was marching to raise awareness of police brutality and the other is a bunch of white supremacists who don't think our country is racist enough.

Most people in your bubble, yes. Your perspective is pure ideology, can you not see? Your assessment of right and wrong, virtue and malevolence aren't principled and depend on the identities of the actors involved and whether their motives and ideologies align with YOURS. When you're right, you're right by accident.

You think you're so safe in your multi-million dollar neighborhood. That's what the shop owners on Rodeo Drive thought too. Those thugs are a quick BMW ride to your block and believe me, they don't consider you to be one of their teammates. Showing them your posts on BI to burnish your lib credentials very likely won't do the trick. At that very point you will become a key donor to the Policemen's Benevolent Association and will change your handle to Unit2GotReal.
