Why the riots?
Because thats what cunts do.
In 2003 police were chasing a black guy on a motorcycle in Benton Harbir Michigan - who was speeding - running multiple stop signs - riding through people's yards - and finally he lost control and crashed into a building and killed himself. At no point did the cops have contact with him or his motorcycle.
This was followed by three days of rioting - including shooting at the cops.
You explain it.
I can't.

Quote:When they threw the bricks and smashed the windows, when they set the blazes that devoured a dozen buildings over the past two harrowing nights, the people of this depressed city on Lake Michigan were not just angry about the 28-year-old motorcyclist killed early Monday in a high-speed police chase.*emphasis mine*
They were still simmering, many said, over 7-year-old Trent Patterson, who died in a police chase a few years back, and Arthur Partee, who was strangled by police officers only two months ago. They said they were still seething over a teenager's mysterious drowning in the St. Joseph's River in 1991, and the man who was shot in the back by an officer the year before.
''We're just tired, we're sick of them killing us,'' Bonita Bulger, 28, said this afternoon as she stood at the corner of Empire and Pavone Streets, opposite where the motorcyclist, Terrance Shurn, crashed to his death and the smoldering remnants of an apartment building burned in the riot.
You want a free pass to be a criminal...
