Baltimore Unrest

[OJ]

You give them too much credit. What you suggest sounds logical on the surface, the consequences of such would lead to a far different outcome than a quell in looting.

Unless you really want this to occur in every city in America. Executing American citizens without a constitutional right to a jury trial is asinine. Also, you folks make jeebus weep with your willingness to have his children killed over stolen Old English and rock chucking.

Somehow I'm not surprised though.

Your tank is full again

It doesn't justify the riots on the streets of Baltimore at all.

Those are just idiotic thugs looking to do idiotic thuggish crap. They're pursuing illegitimate outcomes from what started as a legitimate protest against police brutality.

We don't even know if it was police brutality yet.

Nor were his charges just for selling pot.

Seemed like 9 out off 10 of his offenses were pot/drug related with 2 or maybe 3 indefensible crimes. Even with that, no excuse to pound thee life out of him him.

 

[hog88]

Derp. No surprise that your takeaway is that I must support them since I believe gunning them down may prove to be constitutionally, morally and logically counterproductive.

Joe, as a silly, greedy business owner - I am qualified to tell you that you have no idea what you're talking about. As usual.

As a business owner what would you do? Could you rebuild if the insurance denied your claim?

Again, learn to read.

Serious quesiton here. The business owner has the choice of what insurance he takes. If his plan doesn't include that type of coverage then it's on him because it's his choice.

Isn't this the same argument some are making against the ACA? People should choose there own plan through the market and if their plan doesn't cover what is wrong with them, then tough nuggets?

To be fair... I completley agree that the business owner should have the right to protect his property. The same way a home owner should have that right when his life is threatened by an intruder.

I'm pulling mine to see if we have an exclusion but I'm almost certain that clause is standard.

Rev Al meeting with the Baltimore mayor today.

Rev? He's a mockery of preachers everywhere. How can you give this title to a raciest?

Just sayin'

You can complain that there have been an unacceptable number of incidents where LEO's used unacceptable force on citizens. Is it more than in the past? Probably not, but we are just more aware of it today because everyone has a video recorder in their pocket. It needs to stop.It won't until LEO's change how they interact with the public.

Every time force is used.....the same people claim it was unacceptable......many still believe the Mike Brown incident to be unacceptable force. The guy shot in the back was murder and it looks like this incident might be murder and the cops need to be charged if so. However, the majority that is posted on here, I agree with the cops actions. Its not all roses and cute cuddly puppies out there on the streets.

I'm sure there are many pastors who are racist regardless of color.

The same way you would give the "Dr." title to someone who went to school for 10 years as a History Major and still lives in their parents basement. Becuase it was "earned".:hi:

I think that once someone joins an overseas terrorist organization that their citizenship should be revoked.

Yes. But that's not the point.

My point is that shooting these people dead in the streets is not the solution, it would be counter productive. Don't conflate that with being on there "side". I'm most certainly not - these kids are criminals.

 

[Dr Dread]

Neutron bomb, now THAT is the ticket. It gets rid of the vermin and keeps the structures. Then people who actually respect (or fear I dont care) the law can move in and work on creating a livable community.

Are you really suggesting that they bomb the police station? Seems a little drastic.

 

[Septic]

Just sayin'

Whats your point?

If that Dr did things unethical he would be in trouble of losing his listens.

Did some quick research on it. Nothing to exensive. Most insurance companies offer a coverage for Commercial Prpoerty Insurance that does cover damage from civil unrest. So I would guess most should cover it. Unless it's one of those retarded situations where they would label it different. Similar to how Home Owners insurance will cover you for flood damage, but since it was hurrican damage you're screwed or visa versa.

Allow me to empty it on you.

 

[37L1]

I'm pretty sure you got it after all you know everything.

 

[hog88]

Maybe, maybe not. I lean towards it being a deterrent against future episodes.

 

[Septic]

lol

We tried that in the late 60's and early 70's.

I don't recall them looting.

Keep up we're discussing two separate issues.

 

[Septic]

Again, you are giving them a benefit of logic that they have not earned.

They are burning down their own community's which defy's common sense. Why would you believe that they would suddenly come to the realization that criminal behavior has consequences?

They don't care.

If you shoot them, they won't quit - they will however, shoot back - I can see how that could escalate quickly.
