>> The civil unrest started just hours after the funeral of Freddie Gray

Civil unrest...

And ISIS is baptizing Christians...

The Left has lost it — the self-deceit has etched away whatever commonsense it may have once had.

Josh, you ignorant slut. Fat, dumb and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

Just to pick one place, out of many, to kill the argument being attempted here: criminality in the black community. The fact of the matter is that blacks murder at a rate that is 9-10X the murder rate for whites. And their victims are mostly other blacks. #blacklivesmatter indeed. If they do, why aren’t you talking about this FACT, Josh?

There are similarly high rates of violent crime by blacks for other offenses.

Given this, why shouldn’t we expect blacks to be arrested at much higher rates than whites?

This is the elephant in the room that the Left refuses to discuss.

Does Josh have a business in an African-American neighborhood? If so, local thugs are more than welcome to loot it.

They were all people of color, too. They’re not the only ones, either: People of color are disproportionately, and regularly, killed by police...

Somebody esplain this to me. They are 'people of color', But they're not the only ones and then the rest - only about people of color...who are the 'other' people and why doesn't Josh care about that?

The whole article is replete with code words, keys and racism: "Armchairs", "Clutch their Pearls" and whites' first-forays into social commentary on something about which they know nothing. To Josh's mind, you can't be down with the struggle or know anything unless you are queer or black. Come to think about it, why doesn't Josh include Hispanics in his clutch of victims?

The thesis of the article is that white people saying anything is racist BECAUSE they are white. In truth, Josh is racist for asserting that. And, I can't call him 'queer', or say 'thug' or 'black' or 'lazy' or anything about blacks and not be a racist. Perhaps he should think about his words and the words of his victims: breeders, tro's, whitey, honky, cracker, white bread, polar bear and so on.

Lastly,

If you value plate-glass windows more than you value the life of a person of color, you are being racist.

That's pretty typical from people who haven't worked and have taken the fruits of that work and made their lives better, bought a business to feed their family and establish a livelihood, or to become a value-added member of society and see it all disappear in a cloudy mob of racist violence because of 'racism'. In the end, it is all about the value-added instead of cost to placate.

I am okay with opossums having a place in this world, but when they start chewing through the roof they must be put down.

“If you value plate-glass windows more than you value the life of a person of color, you are being racist.”

And if you want to make believe police responding to the people who are actually committing the crimes and wildly out of proportion to their numbers in society is a racist “disparity” then war it will be. And it will be your self pitying crybaby fault.

“... Philadelphians were arresting people of color at a rate four to five times that of whites for the same crimes.”

What is up with this argument? If they really want arrests according to racial demographics then you’ve just made the biggest joke of a legal system the world has ever seen.

So let me get this straight - saying the protesters have a point but the rioters burning and looting are a bunch of thugs make me a racist?

OK

The words “animals” and “thugs” are often used as code — as a dog whistle in place of arguably the most offensive word in American English. Even Questlove pointed this out on Twitter.

It would seem that this is a simple matter of clearing this up and just using the correct word in the future.

It’s the same reason LGBT people rioted repeatedly in the 20th century, often in response to police brutality or failures of the legal system rooted in homophobia and bigotry.

I don't remember any fag riots. Did Barry's Bathhouse get burnt down or something?

Anyone who makes excuses for the thugs rioting in Baltimore is a thug themselves.

I wonder why the Left never considers that those committing the acts of mayhem and destruction may be either ignorant or racist? They seem to be the ones doing incredibly stupid things if they expect to "fix" anything. they also seem to be the only ones focused on race.

Freaking amazing.

Is Josh Kruger a virulent racist or merely a clueless idiot?

The “authorities” that he references in his article are almost uniformly left-wing extremists who routinely bend or break the truth to fit their ugly agenda.

Garbage in, garbage out...

"Why your friends criticizing the Baltimore riots are either ignorant or racist"

Why can't people be both?

Taking it a step further, why can't people be ignorant, racist ... and rioting?

I suppose the 75% illegitimate. Birth rate in the black community is another myth.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan the former Senator from New York,the seat Hillary Clinton won,wrote a paper when the Great Society instituted by PResident Lyndon Johnson in 1964,that described what was going to happen to the Black family as a result of this policy.
He explains how it will destroy the black family,you can Google it,he was very prescient.
Charles Krauthammer on the Fox news panel last week mentioned this piece,it is worth your time to read it,I think it is also something that Hillary should be questioned on as well since she had to go and kiss Moynihans ring when she wanted to win his seat,reason being,Moynihan after writing his piece was labeled a racist,and was lambasted for it,problem beying of course,he was exactly right,all you have to do is look at the evidence as The Poverty Pimp Al Sharpton likes to proclaim.
I would like to know if Hillary thinks her former pal Moynihan has been vindicated
