Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

Lol. Yeah, the two situations are so comparable. :rolleyes:

Whatever this pumpkin riot is.

Tear gas is never used on white people ever. Priceless said so.

I thought it was smoke bombs.

And that isn't quite what I said. Tear gas or pepper spray was certainly used on white kids at Berkeley a few years ago.

I believe I'm white... of course I don't see race.

Pizza. Pizza. on fire. Oh, the humanity. It's "protestors" who set the fire, right?
 
Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

The car can be replaced.

The bigger question is: Why didn't those people get tear gassed (oh, I'm sorry, smoke-bombed) like the people in Ferguson?
So we should let innocent people's property get destroyed when others get mad because it can be replaced?

i must have missed the point of this
 
Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

The thing is, tonight it was all cool. Cops were hanging out, people were hanging out. Some were throwing things, cops let it go. Then the rioters (some) decided to trash a cop car, and attempted to set it on fire. THEN the cops reacted.

What the hell does one expect a cop to do when that crap starts up? Then came the gunfire. Again, what the hell are the cops supposed to do?
Nothing.

Like they did in New Hampshire, or at Penn State, or in San Francisco after the World Series, or Seattle after the Super Bowl...
 
Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

Little Caesar's on fire now.

But the cops are over-reacting.
 
No,no...jimjamesak says there is no danger to anyone. Move along, nothing to see here. Everyone is peaceful.
BS, you said that people were arrested with pipe bombs and said that police have to protect themselves because there will be others. I understand that police officers have to protect themselves. What I don't like is the broad brushstokes being used. That because a few people were arrested with pipe bombs then everyone has one, that because some people are rioting and setting fires then everyone is.

i was expecting too much when i thought the morons in the street could at least listen to mccullough but then i realized he was probably using too many big words for them

Oh good. Insult their intelligence. How erudite of you.
 
Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

I love Chris Hayes desperately trying to make this seem like it's not a full on riot.

Journalism? What's that?
 
Re: Nice Planet #8: You People Make Me Sick.

They're insulting their own intelligence through their actions.

Talk about living up to every stereotype...

What's really missing here is some sort of commentary from some sort of police public affairs type. Nada. Zilch. Maybe they don't want to speak publicly. Maybe CNN and MSNBC want to keep their decks clear for Malick Shabazz. Still, we could use a little perspective.

Yep. It only takes a few people to set a fire - not thousands.

Lol.
