Riots - Imagine that.

[Skip]

It's not clear to me what she meant if it was something other than what she said. The first time I heard her words it was in full context and it seemed to me that she did in fact mean that they were giving rioters room to vent. If that's not what she meant, then it must have been a different language.

A lot of people have been commenting (not just here) on the pictures of people stealing TP, etc. It may look funny that people are stealing TP but I think it sheds some light on the social situation there. Stealing is NEVER ok, never. But that fact that many of these folks are stealing TP and paper towels instead of big screen TV's might actually show what a bad situation they are in. Now I believe our personal situations are no one's fault but our own, and that's true for them too. But hell, if you have to STEAL TP just so you can wipe your ass each day, you truly are in a bad situation and it's time to make some life changes.

Agreed. The lying Democrat's (but I'm repeating myself) words matched the RoE on the ground to date. She simply got caught being a Dem and the city attorney probably advised her to tailor her speech. It's one thing to quietly support lawlessness, it's another to openly admit you are complicit.

This is consistent with the belief that racial justice demands the law be conditionally enforced. Since LE contacts result in dead black men, the property crimes weren't worth the risk. "Give them room" because #BlackLivesMatter.

The only stores in these areas are the bodegas, liquor stores, and smoke shops. These are the only business that can survive in that environment. Anything that could be taken, was taken and if you watched Fox last night you saw some of these business owners interviewed (they were not happy). I don't think people were looting out of need but opportunity.

One of my takeaways from this situation is that this is happening with...

Generations of Dem leadership
Black President
Black AG
Black Mayor
Majority minority PD
Section 8
SNAP/WIC
Energy assistance
Scholarships/preferential college admissions
Affirmative Action employment
Public education


If there is something else to give, I don't know what else is left. Given our financial situation there is nothing else we can afford. If they want less dead black men, but don't want to discuss accountability for crime, the only solution is to pull LE out of these communities. Would that be justice when even more disproportionate numbers of black Americans are robbed, assaulted, raped, and murdered? I wouldn't want that! Would they feel better if all LE were black too? Well, that's segregation... Are they asking for that?

But worse... Could you imagine the big cities if any of the above are interrupted or eliminated?

It's Baltimore not St. Louis, these people could actually get to DC.

Oh, you mean this piece of shit with the iPhone 6?

Isn't that an ObamaPhone?

She is wearing a lanyard with an ID card from work. Is she a government worker?


Honestly, I think it is a herd thing. People are just seatling stuff just to steal stuff because other people are douing it and they think they will not get caught. They don't care what they grab, just as long as they grab something.

I can't identify cell phones by sight and have no idea what they all cost. But that's my point. If one has an expensive phone but no TP, that individual needs to make some life changes.

Hopefully they are not loaded up with M855, I hear that stuff is super extra dangerous.

+1. All SS109/M855 is for is killin cops! :-) So the mayor and urban league will be makin sure those Crips n Bloods be loaded up with lotsa M855!

News says curfew goes into effect tonite

Apparently ISIS is involved in the social media turn out the thugs program

One of the big "social planning" experiments the left is bought into is "urban planning and relocation" - getting people and businesses to move back to the cities and away from suburbia. Agenda 21 is all about that too. Wonder how this will go after a steady diet of urban race riots? Funny how lefty policies can run headlong into each other!

Her work ID looks like an Albertsons badge. She's also got some paper napkins. Probably planning a company team building party.....

She be the "Quicker PickerUpper".
Wonder if there is a "Bounty" out on her?

Restate a position because 1 mother decided to impart some discipline? I don't think so, that 1 parent doesn't account for the thousands of others who dropped the ball.

Not to mention, her smacking her kid doesn't exactly make up for the 14-18 years of non-parenting that led her kid to that point, anyways. Far from being a hero, that lady is a huge part of the problem.
