There are two... maybe three types of people that would riot under these conditions.

1. The politically disenfranchised: These are the people that are actually rioting because they feel they have no other avenue to have their grievances met
2. The criminals: These are just people that are talking advantage of the situation and would be out just for the "ultra-violence"
3. The economically disenfranchised" These are people that have nothing to lose. No job, no assets, no future prospects.

If you have a significant group of non-blacks in the crowd, they have to fall into one of these three groups. That should concern you.

There is one type that riots under these conditions... STUPID PEOPLE.

You ignoring or ridiculing these people on the streets or wanting to lock them up and throw away the key is not the answer. Its all about empathy, understanding and coming together to go after the people that have been dividing and fragmenting us for all of these years.

This is what the majority of the "shoot the thugs" crowd will never, ever be able to do.

As soon as they start vandalizing, looting, and burning s*** to the ground I immediately know the world would be a better place without them. I don’t care what they want to say after that and I don’t empathize with blatant lawlessness.

There was a comment that somebody made earlier today about the white community being insulated from the things that plague the black community. I commented and replied back that in 2 decades or one generation, you would see out of wedlock birth rates in the white community go to 50%. I'm going to add on to that comment. Today, on these streets in 2020, you are already seeing the decay of white society due to eroding values and the destruction of the nuclear family. The kids on the streets are the products of that environment. For all of these years, while the black community was being destroyed by drugs, govt social programs, govt interference in the family, the white community turned a blind eye, not realizing that these very same tactics were just being perfected in the laboratory on black people, but would eventually come back and be used on the larger society. This is the game plan for how you destroy a country.

What about personal responsibility? I agree with the decay of the family being a HUGE issue. The black people I know are family types and they’re good folks. They teach their kids how to be upstanding and etc..... AND how to behave and avoid interactions with the police if at all possible. All of this hood rat, baby momma, baby daddy BS is reaching critical mass. Don’t get me wrong.... I grew up in close proximity to white trailer trash redneck types and saw similar behavior from them first hand.

I'm definitely not in the "shoot the thugs" crowd but LEO should be controlling the situation so we don't have the horrible beating/possible murder we just witnessed in a post above.

Absolutely.

I think there is some apparent veil of mutual exclusivity between feeling empathy for a sizable chunk of these protestors and wanting to maintain order. We can have both.

It terribly concerns me because it shows how far we have sunk as a society. Not sure what "significant group of non-blacks" has to do with it, and why it should up my concern.

Nevermind. I was just trying to highlight that this is a highly unusual situation. If you don't see it as a problem or concern, that's fine I suppose.
