      They should be grateful for the 13th amendment and stop whining.

            Once we can answer that we have a start in understanding what a society gets out of having Haves and Have Nots, and out of racism, and out of grotesque, perpetual wealth inequality, and systemic inequality under the law.

            She was what, 16, and she'd already internalized all that. FFS, she's already got a better understanding of politics than anyone who has ever appeared on network television.
            Exactly.

            To respond to another query: What does burning down stores get you? Well, immediate release of decades of pent up anger, frustration, resentment, rage etc., which is what voting for people who don’t give a **** about you doesn’t offer.

            This country has needed a reckoning for well over a century and this may be a point where it begins to happen. Discomfort and fear and being shaken awake from the comforts of home and life are necessary because by and large we haven’t had our denouement and it’s time for action instead of words.

            We should have listened to Malcolm and protected him. We should have listened to Martin and protected him. Instead we generally stood around and sinned by silence. Went to work and hoped things returned to “normal” soon afterward.

            Does it suck if your place of employment burned down? Yes. But try being invisible for 40-50 years of your life. See how that affects you.

            "but you're not as confused as him are you. it's not your job to be as confused as Nigel". Tap pt 1.

            "I think it's ****ing stock. What--? Which part of that is unclear to you? I think it sounds stock to my ears. I mean, do you want me to write it down?" Tap Pt. 2

            Who???! So What!!!! Big Deal!!!!

              What did you think was going to happen? This was inevitable as soon as that video was published. Anyone who thinks otherwise lives in a closet.

                  It doesn't matter what I *think* was going to happen. I think anyone who sets things on fire and destroys property like we are seeing in Minneapolis is a moron. White, black, man, woman...doesn't matter.

                    How do you feel about dumping someone elses property in to the bay?

                      You have the double whammy here of rioters not social distancing etc. I am sure everyone is concerned with the potential Covid uptick in Minneapolis now...

                            I wonder if that would impact the ability of Mpls/St. Paul to get named as one of the hub cities for the NHL playoffs? I have to believe we're one of the leading contenders.
                            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                              After 400 years of slavery, segregation, lynchings, Jim Crow, the penitentiary industrial complex, and the Nazi ascension in the GOP, these people should send a peaceful memo.

                                Cause complaining about an obvious aftermath instead of the instigating act is akin to ****ing in the wind. That's why.
