Gonna be a mess - got an excuse to agitate

Burning down a local liquor store/autozone/target doesnt really support your agenda against the local government. Of the shit that was burned, you can guess who is covered by insurance. (Irving, this is pointed, but not maliciously)

This differs considerably with the Tea Party. That business/profit was tied directly to a national government. In this day and age, it is damn near impossible to not cut your nose off in spite of your face.

I do not root for the day, but it will come.

Minneapolis has an internal PD problem that needs fixing. Training seems to be shit.

Where do you think this sort of nefarious activity originate in Denver?

The correct answer is the Colorado Capitol.

What's your threshold for when people should riot against government over reach?

You think the inappropriate action and/or inaction by a handful of police officers, who've already been fired by the gov't they worked for, is a case of gov't overreach and analogous to the Boston tea party?

The Third Precinct police station in Minneapolis was set ablaze Thursday night as violent protests continued in the city -- and other cities across the U.S. -- following Monday's death of George Floyd, a black man who died while in police custody.

Will the police response be different if the "protesters" move to the Cherry Hills / Greenwood Village part of Minneapolis?

The death at the hands of police of clearly and obviously 100% innocent Breonna Taylor, a law abiding black woman who contributed to society as an EMT; crickets.

The death at the hands of police of a potential criminal possibly resisting arrest (again not justifying his death nor the actions of the officers); riots.

And I'm supposed to see the black community as pure victims on the side of the angels?

If ever there was a time to march in the streets it was when police murdered Taylor and then charged her boyfriend with attempted murder of a police officer when it is the officers that screwed up and frankly deserved to be shot at (thankfully charges against him have been dropped). All the rioting does is make police harshness against black men seem somehow justified.

There's a ton of stories about Taylor. I hadn't heard about her case until you posted. 7 people shot in protests in KY over her shooting.

The 911 call by her boyfriend was heartbreaking. He obviously had no idea what had happened.

It's called trolling. and you guys bit.

Reference to Boston Tea Party.

Yes; No, I didn't; and yes, the reference was clear.

Hence my pointing out that Irving is just edgelording, which is something he likes to do around here.

Late Thursday, President Donald Trump blasted the ?total lack of leadership? in Minneapolis. ?Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way.

Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts,? he said on Twitter.

... And Twitter had kittens about him "glorifying violence".

Hmm. Oddly that looks a bit like Irving if he was 209 lbs heavier.
