The outcome of mob rule...
BULLSHIT!
You still don't get it. Civil unrest isn't a result of loving destruction, but a reaction to abuse. Instead of lying to yourself to justify your own bias, try understanding the long term history of inequity in economics and justice. Then learn from it and address the conditions. Humans in our entire species history will always have civil unrest when a segment of that population is abused. It does no good to bitch after the fact. Long term conditions matter.
FYI they are not supporting looting. They are supporting the idea of innocent until proven guilty of the individual. I am pretty sure they are talking about people as to which were arrested with no probable cause. I am so sick of shit like this trying to equate looters with protestors.
We live in a country where a rich white kid drove drunk, killed 4 people and got a slap on the wrist. Yet we also live in a country where a black man gets shot with his little daughter in the back seat merely for merely trying to reach for his legal gun permit. We live in a country where a black EMT who got shot murdered by police because of a wrong address. We live in a country where a black man has a police officer kneel on his neck for nearly 9 minutes.
Please tell everyone here how long black and brown people should keep putting up with this?
MLK most certainly preached non violence. But if you watch this CBS clip, he is also basically saying that most blacks won't lean to violence, but also in that white people need to listen. He is basically saying the same thing I am. BLM is also saying the same thing. MLK didn't like violence, but he also understood the natural reaction to abuse. He also says in this clip that it is up to white people to listen.
MLK, "A riot is the language of the unheard.". He's not condoning anything by saying that. He is merely saying unless you understand conditions and address them, you can expect those things to happen. Just like we know how hurricanes form doesn't mean you want them affecting you.
