1. "Whose street? Our street! Tear up the concrete!"

That seems new.

2. Guns

I wish we could realize that if we eliminated guns the world would be a better place.

[Sympthsical]

3. Sure, try to loot the paleontology museum

Idiots.

4. Do You REALIZE...

This Man Jacob Blake was SHOT IN THE BACK UPWARDS OF SEVEN TIMES IN FRONT OF HIS THREE YOUNG SONS?

And you are worried about a FUCKING Museum?

[Sympthsical]

7. It's not a zero sum game.

There’s useful vigor (see the majority of the peaceful protesters), and useless vigor - the rioters who just want to create more violence and damage.

Walk and chew gum and all that.

It’s time to move beyond emoting and emojis. November is coming. Focus.

10. Reported...

....."Zero Sum Game???" WTH..... Let's See What Happens.

6. I'm sorry, but what has this got to do with anything? I listened to that clip. What?

[Sympthsical]

8. It was on the feed

At first, the destruction was aimed at government buildings. Then some chuckleheads went after the dinosaur museum across the street.

I was just commenting along to what I saw as soon as I tuned into the feeds.

9. You should have been a LOT more clear in your post...

It comes across as callous, which perhaps you did not intend.

13. Omg

I hope not, it will hurt the cause

11. Some of the protestors can't throw very well.

Reminds me of footage of Palestinians throwing rocks.

No torque in the torso or leading leg, no wrist-snap, etc.

12. sad. this will probably start up the massive protests again.

just when its been kind of dying down.

but it will draw attention to the issue again and get fired up again to vote against trump.


this stuff burning plays into trumps hands this week and you know they are going to use it but so what, fuck em.

in two weeks there will be another cop murder

two weeks from that another one caught on tape.

14. Two camera guys trying to save a church from burning...

... while a nearby fire truck does nothing.
