Why do these violent protesters and looters get a free pass by the media? On the other hand, the left leaning mainstream media are obsessed with stories like swimming pool parties last Memorial Day weekend.

This CNN analyst is suggesting protesters experience different treatment by police based on their race comparing protests from past weeks. No mention that there are multiple races represented among both the protesters and police. Then he goes on to justify the looting. Looting is justifiable in his eyes and therefore, no condemnation!

How many headlines use the word "protest" to describe what is domestic terrorism by definition.

Take a quick gander on social media and you will find 95% are the partisan BI types who are actively encouraging the riots and/or assert it is a proportional response to a perceived injustice.

Those in our mainstream institutions are so weak -- the Governor of Minnesota is having a press conference like he's lecturing his children for eating cookies for dinner. "Guys I feel your pain but please we cannot have looting blah blah blah."

It's a hell of a bill for the fuss over a bad $20. When I got a bad $20 in change from a store and then later tried to spend it in another store, the police weren't called. The store kept the bill, I was out $20; wasn't told why it was bad; the clerk's decision was final. Stores down here were always passing out Mexican coins when they changed your bills. Had to start to use debit cards instead of cash to avoid getting scammed. Places near the Navy bases were the worst as sailors back from TJ left with dollars and came back with pesos that they tried to spend everywhere in San Diego. I used to add Mexican coins on top of my tip, the servers were from TJ and at least they could spend the bonus coins.

Part of the problem is the over reaction to small time fraud and complete inaction when it is billions. When the Wall Street types were creating fake money in the billions with notables like Steve Bannon creating worthless mortgage derivatives; the result was we lost half of our net worth (several hundred thousand gone to never return). Maybe the immensity of those crimes precluded outrage; In retrospect if a bad $20 bill results in a wrongful death, feeding Wall Street thru a wood chipper slowly one at a time is still insufficient justice for the losses we suffered along with millions of other victims.

There was a time when the good white folk in this country would catch up to a flim flam man like The Grump and give him a form fitting tar and feather coat for the winter; now those same good folks worship him as their Emperor God. If you're non WASP you're SOL; can't see how the rest of the world can trust our country when we come meddling in their backyard.

While watching these protests one of the first things I thought of is what are the odds that the media will tell us in 6 days that there was a spike in Covid cases in Atlanta, DC, and Minneapolis? Not a chance. But when there's protests of government overreach they quickly tell us about a resultant spike in Covid with absolutely no substantiation.

LOL can't bring himself to condemn destroying a city.

Can you guys smell the stench of your own bulls***t?

We didn't need any additional evidence that the partisan SJW Left have no principles -- their determination of right and wrong lies in the immutable identities of those involved, and whether the dynamics in play support their ideological bent.

They are like an umpire who doesn't call balls and strikes based on the objective strike zone but by who is standing in the batter's box and on the pitcher's mound.

A few things come to mind when I seen this criminal mass destruction:

1) This is what happens when low IQs meet a corrupt and sort of cultural marxism
2) The liabilities of low IQ Americans spawning with other low IQ Americans to produce more low IQ Americans
3) The Left hasn't learned their lesson from 2016. It's like they're shaving points for Republicans

Leftist ideology is not based on truth as truth isn't a core value. It's based on emotion. If the umpire feels like it's a strike regardless of the objective strike zone, he will call strike. Safe spaces were created by leftists to protect themselves from emotional discomfort, leftists shout down speakers on college campuses to protect themselves from emotional discomfort. They do not engage in debate, they engage in violence.

ANTIFA, the easttbay thugs are just itching to get out there again, looking for an excuse. White guys wearing black.

Ridiculous and unnecessary. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Deadly shooting outside Oakland courthouse as protests rage

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/may/30/oakland-courthouse-shooting-george-floyd-protest

White riot, I want to riot
White riot, a riot of our own
White riot, I want to riot
White riot, a riot of our own
Black man gotta lotta problems
But they don't mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick
And everybody's doing
Just what they're told to
And nobody wants
To go to jail
White riot, I want to riot
White riot, a riot of our own
White riot, I want to riot
White riot, a riot of our own

When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun?
When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting in death row
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'd have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell
You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of "The Harder They Come"
You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
oh, the guns of Brixton
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun?
You can crush us
You can bruise us
And even shoot us
But oh, the guns of Brixton
Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game was survivin'
As in heaven as in hell
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'd have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, guns of Brixton
Oh, guns of Brixton
Oh, guns of Brixton

So you're saying umpires are leftists? That's a unique take. It might explain why they usually call base stealers safe, I guess.

Newsom must be absolutely beside himself watching those "protesters. " Not so much because they're trashing his cities, but because they aren't practicing social distancing.

This article by Kareem Abdul Jabbar is the best thing I've read on the subject. Certainly better than anything I've read in this thread.
